Free. All of it.

Every feature, unlimited usage, no credit card. When team features launch, pricing will be simple and usage-based — not per-seat.

On the Roadmap

Team pricing, when you're ready

When we launch team features, pricing will be simple and usage-based. Your first 50 AI-powered questions each month are included free. After that, it's $0.50 per question. No per-seat fees.

$0

First 50 questions / month

Included with every team

Most small teams will stay comfortably in the free tier. Annotating your handbook, browsing lineage, and managing metrics are always free — only AI-powered questions count toward the limit.

$0.50

Each additional question

Simple, predictable, no surprises

Pay only for what you use. No per-seat charges, no tiers to worry about. Whether you have 3 people or 30, the price is the same — based on usage, not headcount.

The more you use it, the lower your effective cost per question. Handbook management, annotations, lineage, and all other features are always free.

Common questions

Is this really free with no catch?

Yes. Every feature — unlimited tables, metrics, gotchas, lineage, AI verification — is free with no limits. No trial, no credit card, no usage caps. When we launch team features down the road, those will have a usage-based pricing model, but the core product stays free.

What counts as a "question" in the future team pricing?

Only AI-powered questions count — when you or an AI tool asks Contextary to generate SQL, verify a query, or answer a natural language question. Everything else (managing annotations, browsing lineage, defining metrics, editing gotchas) is always free and unlimited, no matter what plan you're on.

Do I need to be technical to set up Contextary?

If you can enter a database connection string, you can set up Contextary. The setup wizard walks you through connecting your warehouse, and the AI can suggest annotations for your tables automatically. No coding required.

Does Contextary store or access my data?

Contextary reads your warehouse's schema (table names, column names, types) to help you annotate it. When you use AI verification, queries run against your warehouse. Contextary stores only the metadata and annotations you create — not your raw data.

Why usage-based instead of per-seat?

Per-seat pricing penalizes teams for giving more people access. We want everyone on your team to benefit from Contextary, not just the people with a license. Usage-based pricing means you pay for value delivered (accurate AI answers), not for the number of chairs at the table.
