# The free Community plan: what's in it and how to get an invite

Two threads with 60 browser-minutes each per day, every browser on the fleet and a proxy included — free, with no trial expiry. Invite-only while we open up.

2026-10-15

cdpfleet now has a free plan. It's meant for trying the fleet and for small projects: real browsers over the same API as the paid plans, with a proxy included so you don't have to bring one. There's no trial expiry and nothing is ever charged.

## What you get

-   **2 threads, 60 browser-minutes per thread per day.** A headless browser takes 1 thread and a headful one 2, so you run two headless sessions or one headful at a time. Minutes are counted per thread: a headful session uses both threads' minutes, up to 60 minutes of headful a day. The allowance resets at midnight UTC.
-   **Sessions of up to 15 minutes**, on every browser on the fleet — Chrome with its channels, Edge, Brave, Opera, Firefox, Camoufox, WebKit and the stealth builds.
-   **A proxy included.** Leave `proxy` out of the launch and the plan's shared proxy is used, or send a `cdpfleet-plan` token for a country and a sticky exit — the dashboard's Proxies → Community proxy tab builds it. Your own proxies work too, and the paid [residential proxy](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/proxies#residential) is available as on any plan.
-   **Per session:** up to 5 open pages and 3 GB of memory (3.5 GB headful).
-   **Launch interactive**, the code generator and the [For AI](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/builder) prompt work on Community like on the paid plans.

## What it doesn't include

-   Session recordings, [persistent profiles](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/profiles) and `keep_alive`.
-   Priority: Community sessions share a capacity cap and give way first when paid plans need room, so at busy times a launch can be refused with `503 community_capacity_full` — retry after `Retry-After`. The included proxy is shared too and slower at peak times.
-   Request data from Community sessions may be used to learn which browser setups work on which sites, so don't sign in to accounts or handle personal data on it ([Terms, section 4A](https://cdpfleet.com/terms)).

## How to get it

-   Signups are invite-only while we open up: [join the waitlist](https://cdpfleet.com/#join) and we'll send an invitation.
-   Sign in to the dashboard and choose **Verify a card and activate**. Stripe checks the card; it's never charged, and one card holds one Community account.
-   Create an API key, pick a browser in the code generator and run the program it writes — or try a browser live first with Launch interactive.
-   Moving to a paid plan is one click in the dashboard, and a paid plan can switch to Community at the end of its billing period.
