We’re thrilled to announce that starting today, new Semaphore users will have access to our new Startup and Scaleup plans.
In the past year, we’ve introduced several new features to Semaphore, which were previously only available on our Enterprise plan.
We recognize that smaller teams with high growth targets can benefit from these features as well. That’s why we’re introducing the Startup and Scaleup plans, which come with a per-seat fee, ensuring that we continue providing the additional value that our users expect.
You can get more details of the new plans on our updated pricing page and our new documentation pages.
Key benefits

Startup plan
Startup is now our default paid option and replaces the older Standard plan.
For a starting price of $10, you get the highest value package on the CI/CD market. We won’t limit you as you grow either. Our pricing is still usage-based, so whether you need more seats or more build minutes, just use what you need and pay at the end of the month.
On the Startup plan, you can run up to 80 jobs in parallel, and connect 40 self-hosted agents to your organization.
Scaleup plan
Our Scaleup plan is the upgraded version of our Enterprise plan. With this plan, you’ll receive a pack of free resources each month, and an equal amount of credits that you can use to pay for seats, machine time, storage, and egress.
The plan starts at $1,800, and any unspent credits from one month will be transferred to the next one, so you never lose any unused credits. Additionally, any additional spending on top of the credits will simply be added to your monthly bill. This gives you the flexibility to adjust your usage to match your business needs and ensures that you’re never paying for more than you need.
