# Plans & pricing

A free plan to start, then two paid products, both billed monthly per thread. Your thread count is how many browsers can run at once (heavier browsers take more threads, see [Sessions & billing](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/sessions)).

-   **Community — free** — 2 threads with 60 browser-minutes each per day, sessions up to 15 minutes, proxies included, lowest priority. [Community vs paid](https://cdpfleet.com/upgrade).
-   **Shared threads** — pooled capacity. Each purchased thread contributes browser-minutes per day to your shared account pool; there are no per-thread balances. Sessions run on 15-minute leases that renew automatically while shared capacity allows.
-   **Dedicated threads** — reserved capacity for continuous use. No daily minutes, no hourly limit, no leases.

## Community plan (free)

For trying cdpfleet and for small projects. [Sign up free](https://cdpfleet.com/app#sign-up); the account activates the plan in the dashboard by verifying a card with Stripe. The card is never charged and one card holds one Community account.

<table><tbody><tr><th scope="row">Threads</th><td>2 — a headless browser takes 1, a headful one 2. Minutes are counted per thread, so a headful session uses both threads' minutes: up to 60 minutes of headful a day, the same as two headless sessions of 60 minutes</td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Browser-minutes</th><td>60 per thread per day, resetting at midnight UTC</td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Session length</th><td>Up to 15 minutes</td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Browsers</th><td>Every browser on the fleet</td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Proxies</th><td>Included Community proxy (country and sticky sessions) — leave <code>proxy</code> out or send a <code>cdpfleet-plan</code> token from the dashboard. Shared by all Community users, so speed drops at peak times. Your own proxies and the paid <a href="#residential">residential proxy</a> work too</td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Priority</th><td>Lowest: Community capacity is capped for all Community users together, and Community sessions give way first when paid plans need room</td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Not included</th><td>Session recordings, <a href="/docs/profiles">persistent profiles</a>, <code>keep_alive</code></td></tr><tr><th scope="row">Your data</th><td>Request data from Community sessions may be used to learn which browser setups work on which sites — don't sign in to accounts or handle personal data on it (<a href="/terms">Terms, section 4A</a>)</td></tr></tbody></table>

Moving to a paid plan is one click in the dashboard; a paid plan can also switch to Community at the end of its billing period.

## Shared threads

For example, Shared 60 gives **60 browser-minutes/day contributed to your shared account pool per purchased thread**: 100 threads put 6,000 browser-minutes a day in the pool, with up to 1,500 in any rolling 60 minutes and up to 100 threads' worth of browsers at once. The pool resets at midnight UTC; unused minutes don't carry over.

Before a shared session starts, all of these must hold: an active shared plan, a free thread, minutes left in today's pool and in the rolling hour, and room in the shared fleet. Minutes are metered to the second while the session runs.

## Dedicated threads

Capacity reserved for you, to run browsers continuously. The browser idle timeout is 120 s by default; set `inactivity_timeout` (up to 24 h) to keep a quiet browser open. A single session lasts up to 24 h.

| Dedicated threads | 5 | 10 | 25 | 50 | 100 | 500 | 1,000 | 2,500 | 5,000 | 10,000 | More than 10,000 |

More than 10,000 threads, or something else in mind? [Contact sales](#contact).

Every paid plan can also use the free [Community proxy](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/proxies#community-proxy) — free but not guaranteed: shared, slower than your own proxies or the residential proxy below, and launches with it can be refused when the Community capacity is full.

## cdpfleet residential proxy

Optional, prepaid in USD, separate from threads: traffic through our residential proxy in **4 tiers from $0.50 to $5 per GB** (Tier 1 $5, Tier 2 $2.50, Tier 3 $1, Tier 4 $0.50), with **$5 free credit** on every account. Top up any amount from $10 in the dashboard; the balance doesn't expire and pays for any tier. Choose the tier, country, device OS and sticky sessions with a [`cdpfleet-resi` token](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/proxies#residential). Your own proxies stay free.
