Self-hosting AdvertisingOS costs nothing, forever. AdvertisingOS Cloud is priced on consumption — what your agents actually do — not on seats. And rehearsals are free: dry runs, reads, reports, checks and audits never meter.
cloud is rolling out in the open build order (docs/cloud-roadmap.md) — availability is stated per tier. prices are launch pricing; changes are announced before they apply.
Each meter prices one Cloud pillar. Everything the open project ships free stays free on Cloud — the meters only count live, real-world work.
The open project. The whole interface, on your infrastructure.
Hosted, for kicking tires. $300 usage credits at signup.
Production. Overages at published meter rates.
Platforms, agencies, regulated buyers.
managed posture (optional, any paid tier): a supervised agent team runs the account within your approvals — 1–3% of managed spend, $1,500/mo minimum.
