Which plan to pickIf you are connecting your own Claude or ChatGPT to your own apps, Hobby is all you need. Move to Pro when a team or a product of yours starts using it, so usage keeps running past the free cap instead of pausing until next month.If you have anyone technical on hand, self-host the Community Edition on a small server and pay nothing. Otherwise Starter on the cloud is the right place to begin, and 2,500 executions covers a lot when each run of a long workflow counts as one.Build your first agent on Free, then move to Starter once it's doing a real job. Watch your credit use for the first month before you set up more agents. Top-up credits cost $5 per 1,600, with a $25 minimum, if you run short.
