Select the right plan for your business

A run is a Terraform execution (plan and/or apply). Both dry runs (that executes the plan, cost estimation, and policy phases, but not the apply) and standard runs (that actually execute a Terraform apply) count as a run.

An environment is a collection of related workspaces and users. Typically, an environment corresponds to functional areas, applications, cloud accounts, projects, or any grouping that is required.

Flex usage is any usage (run or run-minutes) that is not part of your monthly quota and that is charged at the rate shown in the table above.

There's nothing to worry about, you can still continue to use Scalr! Any additional Scalr run over your monthly count will be charged at the flex rate shown above and billed at the end of your billing cycle.

You can consume as many run-minutes as you need directly within Scalr. Additional  run-minutes are charged on a pay-as-you-go model at the flex rate show above. 

There is no charge per user, workspace or concurrent run, only soft limits to ensure fair usage across all accounts. If you need more than what your plan offers, please log a ticket to our support portal.

Runs executed on self-hosted runners do count towards the runs/month quota, but don't count against the run-minutes quota (ie. platform execution time on Scalr).

We believe that a cost per run significantly lower than the cost per apply encourages a culture of rapid iteration on well scoped applies. Charging a high cost per apply unfortunately incentivizes having fewer applies, which means incentivizing a waterfall approach of large batched and risky changes, which in some observed cases even led to incentivizing having larger workspaces.
