About Amp pricing
Re-verified 2026-10-06 on ampcode.com/pricing and the official docs (ampcode.com/docs/pricing, /docs/orbs/sizes-and-costs). Lineup unchanged: Hobby (Free, 'New'), Individual $20/mo — Megawatt tab live-renders '45,000 minutes of orbin' time' — and a Gigawatt tab ($200/mo; its body is client-rendered — the 480,000-minute figure is carried from the 2026-10-01 browser toggle verification; docs confirm 'a1.3xlarge is available only to Gigawatt subscribers and Enterprise workspace members'), Teams 'No extra charge' (mixed tiers, shared threads/portals/skills, pooled credits, SAML/OIDC SSO, shared BYOK & model routing), Enterprise 'Custom' (pooled credits only, SCIM, audit logs, IP allowlisting; FDE via amplabs.com). NEW DOCS DETAIL (docs/pricing): 'Paid tiers include agent usage, orb usage, and every Amp product feature. Included usage resets at the end of each monthly billing period and does not roll over.' Overage paid credits are charged at actual model+tool usage with NO markup for individuals and non-enterprise workspaces; non-model tools (web search) also consume credits; purchased credits expire 12 months after purchase; orbs are a separate allowance billed by the minute (larger orbs drain it faster; sizes $0.08-$2.13/hr: a1.tiny $0.08, a1.small $0.17, a1.medium $0.33, a1.large $0.66, a1.xxlarge $1.32, a1.3xlarge $2.13; paused orbs cost nothing; personal Megawatt projects default to a1.small). The old '$5 minimum' and 'Enterprise +50%/$1,000' terms remain undocumented — dropped. MODELS: the manual now headlines 'GPT-5.6, Claude Fable 5.1, fast models' (previous smart=Opus 4.8 / rush=GPT-5.5 mapping is no longer documented); ChatGPT subscription linking gives 'more GPT-6/GPT-5.6 usage'.
