Pricing
What Loam costs, and what it doesn’t cover.
USD $499 per user, per month
Model usage on provider accounts you control is billed by that provider, separately from Loam. Loam is in limited access, so every account starts with a conversation about the work.
Included
What you receive.
- The editor workflow. The Loam extension for VS Code, free on the Marketplace, and the signed installer. Development meetings, troubleshooting, code review, and Build Mode, with four role-specific AI working contexts.
- The engineering record. Selected decisions, corrections, findings, and open work saved to your account and carried into later sessions.
- Phone workflows, where enabled for your account. Reception for read-only codebase review, research, and document generation, plus team calls and blocker callbacks. Debugging and code changes by phone are planned, not shipped.
- The documentation a review needs. Security, For IT, and the Proof Packet describe what is stored, where it is stored, and how it is removed.
Limits
What is limited today.
- Build Mode pauses after five milestones in one session. Resume the build to continue the plan.
- Memory is per user. Shared organizational memory is not shipped.
- Hosting is Loam-managed. Loam administrators provision servers in Loam’s AWS and Cloudflare accounts. Bring-your-own cloud is not available.
- No self-service export, retention settings, or customer-facing audit log. For IT lists these gaps, and Security lists what account deletion does not yet remove.
Other costs
What can cost extra, and who bills it.
| Cost | Who bills it | When it applies |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code in your editor | Anthropic, on the developer’s own Anthropic account | Whenever you work in an editor session |
| Loam’s server-side model work | Loam during an active trial. After the trial, it runs on your Anthropic API key, and Anthropic bills you. | Once your trial ends |
| Image generation in Build Mode | Loam. You do not configure or pay for a Gemini key. | Only when enabled |
| Hosted servers | Priced in your plan or order form | Only if your order includes hosting |
| Anything bought directly from a provider | That provider, under its own terms | Outside Loam |
Loam does not store your payment card. Billing runs through a payment processor, and Loam keeps only a customer reference.
Terms
Billing terms in one place.
- Before you agree to a paid plan or order, you see its price, billing cycle, renewal, and cancellation terms.
- You can cancel at any time. Access continues through the end of the paid period.
- Except where the law requires otherwise, fees are non-refundable.
The full text is in the Terms.
Pilots
Put the pilot in writing before it starts.
A pilot is only useful when both sides agree on what it covers and how it will be judged. Settle these before day one:
- Who is in it, and for how long.
- What it costs, including whether hosted servers are part of the order.
- Which Anthropic account pays for model usage after any trial.
- Which workflows are in scope: editor sessions, Build Mode with a linked repository, and phone workflows.
- What Build Mode may push, and to which branch. What starting Build Mode authorizes.
Then judge it against your current process: time to resume work, accepted output, review findings that reach a final disposition, rework, and the quality of the handoff evidence.
