We priced SDL AI Studio the way we would want to buy it.

Free that is actually useful

The free tier is not a locked demo. It runs locally, it is private, and it stays free. There are daily caps so the free tier stays sustainable, but it is a real tool, not a countdown to a paywall.

Pro is one time, not a subscription

Pro unlocks the full workspace and a commercial-use license for a single one-time price. You own it. There is no renewal that quietly shows up a year later, and no per-seat bill that grows as your business grows.

Why one-time and not monthly

Most of the value is local, on your machine. It would not be honest to charge you every month for software that runs on your own hardware. Subscriptions are reserved for future cloud features that carry an ongoing cost, and even those will be optional.

We would rather earn trust with a fair deal than lock you into a plan you forget you are paying for.
