LLMS index: [llms.txt](/llms.txt)

---

Pigsty and the rest of the open-source stack remain free to use. PGSTY charges
for assurance, response, and expert work rather than for access to the core
software.

## Subscription plans

- **Open Source** is the self-supported community option.
- **Standard** adds business-hours guidance for production users.
- **Professional** adds stronger response commitments and direct expert access.
- **Enterprise** covers continuous, mission-critical operations with a 7×24
  service commitment.

Subscriptions are billed per managed node. The [interactive pricing
page](/price/) contains the current prices, currencies, scope, and comparison.

## On-demand expertise

Architecture review, migration, deployment, training, health checks, incident
response, and custom engineering can also be purchased as discrete services.
