title: Pricing description: Dual-track, developer-friendly pricing for phorvec — Community free through Enterprise.

Pricing

Phorvec has two pricing tracks so each type of user pays for what they actually use:

  • MCP Dev-Tool track — flat monthly, per-user. For individuals and small teams working inside Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline.
  • Infrastructure track — per-project. For organisations running phorvec as production agent infrastructure.

Start free on Community, upgrade along whichever track fits.

Prices shown in USD. Billed in ZAR at the current exchange rate via Paystack.

FAQ

Can I use phorvec commercially on the Community plan? Yes — the core library (phorvec_core) is MIT, and the MCP server (phorvec) is BSL 1.1 with free internal production use. What requires a commercial licence is embedded deployment (drones, vehicles, robots, edge devices), air-gapped operation, or OEM redistribution of phorvec as part of a product you ship.

Is the whole thing open source? The core library is fully MIT. The MCP server is BSL 1.1 (converts to Apache 2.0 on 2030-03-25). The Enterprise-tier tools ship in the same open-source binary and unlock at runtime when a signed license is present.

What counts as a "project"? A project is a directory where phorvec stores agent data, identified by a nexus.json file. A monorepo is one project; separate services in separate repos are separate projects.

Why per-project instead of per-seat on the Infrastructure track? Phorvec on the Infrastructure track is infrastructure, not a seat-based SaaS. Value scales with how many agent systems you run, not how many humans you employ. Per-project pricing means adding a new developer to an existing project costs nothing.

Can my whole team use one MCP Max subscription? No — MCP Max is on the per-user Dev-Tool track ($39/seat/month). If you need per-project pricing, start with Team ($49/project/month) which also covers team features.

Do you offer annual billing discounts? Annual billing at 20% off is available for MCP Pro, MCP Max, and Team. Contact us for Enterprise annual pricing.

How do I get started with Enterprise? Email licensing@phorvec.com with a brief description of your use case and deployment profile (number of devices, air-gapped or connected, expected fleet size). We'll schedule a technical discovery call and send a custom quote.

Can I self-host the Memory CMS dashboard? Yes. Enterprise subscribers receive a self-hosted dashboard binary that connects to your local phorvec server. No data leaves your environment.
