Pricing

Start with a real cluster. Pay when one context is no longer enough.

The complete single-cluster investigation workflow stays free, including GPU allocation facts when Kubernetes exposes them. Pro adds a fleet view and optional GPU rate scenarios. Teams adds an organizational boundary and direct engineering support.

Questions before you choose

Is the free version really free?

Yes. Fortem Free connects to one selected kubeconfig context at a time and includes the complete investigation path: incident briefs, environments, workloads, resources, events, logs, routing and supported actions. No account is required.

What does the Pro license unlock?

One local fleet view across up to 10 kubeconfig contexts for an individual operator, plus GPU allocation cost scenarios when you provide a rate per scheduler resource name. That rate applies uniformly across nodes with the same resource name; this is not GPU utilization or cloud billing. The experimental Jev layer remains a bring-your-own-key preview.

Is Pro a subscription?

No. The founding license is a one-time purchase covering 12 months of updates. Covered builds continue to work after that period; a future update renewal is optional.

How is the Pro license delivered?

Stripe returns you to Fortem after payment, where the browser immediately downloads a signed offline license. Fortem does not send a separate license email and does not need a remote activation server.

What is different about Teams?

Teams is for organizations that need a shared deployment boundary, more than ten clusters, integration help and a support relationship. Scope is agreed before billing because those needs depend on network and security boundaries.

Does Fortem require a Helm chart?

No. The local product uses your existing kubeconfig and external auth helpers. Fortem does not require an in-cluster agent.
