Pricing · Self-hosted
Free to self-host, with no limits. Pay only for the enterprise layer.
Run the full product yourself — unlimited integrations, users, and data. The Enterprise Edition adds SSO, RBAC, audit, and support, priced simply by number of integrations. Your telemetry never leaves your network.
Self-hosted, by design: you deploy Sluicio with Docker Compose or Helm, and your traces, metrics, and logs live in your own databases. Sluicio never sees your telemetry.
Why it works this way
You host the data, so we don't charge for the data.
Metering per-GB or per-span would mean billing you for storage you already pay for. We price the value — an integration you can trust not to break silently — not how much telemetry you happen to emit.
Your data stays with you
The app services, Postgres, and ClickHouse all run in your environment. Traces, metrics, and logs are stored on your disk — nothing is sent to us.
We price value, not complexity
An integration that warns you before it breaks saves engineer-hours. That is what you pay for — never the volume of data behind it.
One meter, Enterprise only
Number of integrations is the only thing we count — a fair proxy for an org's scale. The free Community Edition has no such cap.
Managed cloud is on the roadmap — but today Sluicio is self-hosted, and this page is about running it yourself.
Two editions
The whole product is free. The enterprise layer is paid.
Users are always unlimited. Data is always unmetered. The only meter is the number of integrations — and it applies to the Enterprise Edition alone.
Heads up — these prices are an early draft. They're still under review and may change before launch.
Community Edition
The full product — no limit on integrations, users, or telemetry volume. Open source under the FSL licence, which becomes Apache 2.0 after two years.
- Unlimited integrations, users, and telemetry
- Everything in “Included in every plan” below
- 14-day telemetry retention (longer is an Enterprise feature)
- Community support
The only thing it lacks is the enterprise layer — SSO, advanced RBAC, audit log, retention controls, and MFA enforcement. Add those with the Enterprise Edition.
Enterprise Edition
The same product plus the enterprise layer and support, priced by number of integrations. Every paid plan includes the full enterprise feature set — the plans differ only by how many integrations they cover and the level of support.

What counts as an “integration”?
An integration is one monitored flow you care about — a connection between systems (for example, “Orders → ERP” or “Webhook ingest → queue → warehouse”). Each integration groups the services involved and gives you one health signal, traces, and alerts for it. You decide where to draw the boundaries; you only pay for the integrations you actually monitor.
Environments
Your test, acceptance, and staging environments are included.
You only pay for what you run in production. Most teams run a separate Sluicio instance per environment for isolation, and the same licence works in every instance — because each environment monitors the same set of integrations, each one stays within your plan’s cap. One licence, deploy it everywhere. Most tools re-bill you for every environment’s hosts and data; we don’t.
Included in every plan
All the core monitoring — including on the free edition.
- Integration, service, and system health monitoring
- OpenTelemetry-native traces, metrics, and logs (no proprietary agent)
- Topology / dependency views
- Alerts + notification channels (Slack, PagerDuty, webhooks)
- Health checks (threshold, rate, log-based)
- Dashboards and message/trace search
- Usage report (see exactly what you’re storing)
- MCP server (connect Claude / Cursor to your cell, read-only)
What we don't charge for
Your number is “how many integrations.” That's it.
- ✕Not per user. Invite the whole team — devs, ops, managers. Visibility shouldn't have a tax.
- ✕Not per GB or per span. You host the data; send as much as you want.
- ✕Not per host or per container. Scale your infrastructure without scaling your bill.
- ✕No overage bill shock. You always know your number, because your number is how many integrations.
Pricing questions
Questions, answered.
Is this self-hosted or cloud?
Self-hosted. You run it on your own infrastructure with Docker or Helm; your telemetry stays in your environment. Managed cloud isn't available yet.
Do I pay for data volume?
No. You store telemetry in your own databases, so there's nothing for us to meter. Send as much as you want.
What do I get for free?
The entire product — with no limit on integrations, users, or data. The only thing the free Community Edition doesn't include is the enterprise features (SSO, advanced RBAC, audit log, retention controls, MFA) and support.
How long is my data kept?
The Community Edition retains telemetry for 14 days — enough for everyday operational monitoring. The Enterprise Edition lets you configure longer retention for compliance, audit, and long-range trends.
Do I pay per user?
No — users are unlimited on every plan, including free.
Is there an integration limit?
Not on the Community Edition — it's unlimited. The integration count only applies to the Enterprise Edition, where it sets your plan (up to 25 Pro, up to 75 Business, 75+ custom).
Do monitored systems count toward my integration limit?
Yes. A "system" — a message broker, database, or queue you monitor directly — is a fully monitored entity with its own health checks, templates, and alerts, so it counts the same as an integration flow. Your plan limit is the combined total. Reaching it never stops monitoring — it just prompts an upgrade. (The Community Edition is unlimited, so this only applies to paid plans.)
Do I pay extra for test / acceptance / staging environments?
No. You're billed on your production integrations; run Sluicio in every environment under one licence. We charge for what you run in production, not for watching it before it ships.
Is it really open source?
Yes — the Community Edition, under the FSL licence, which becomes Apache 2.0 after two years, with no feature throttling beyond the enterprise layer. The Enterprise Edition adds SSO, advanced RBAC, audit log, retention controls, MFA enforcement, and support.
What does support include at each tier?
Community help for free; business-hours email on Pro; priority on Business; an SLA and a dedicated contact on Enterprise.
