Beach Pricing

Learn about our price model which is as flexible as Beach itself.

Only pay for what you need

Flownative Beach is a whole lot in one package. In order to provide a good fit for all ranges of Neos users, we offer different plans which you can combine individually.

What do you need?

Simply pick a suitable project plan and an instance fitting your needs. If you need more instances later, you add or remove them at will.

Projects and instances are billed by the hour

You can upgrade and downgrade any time. And you only pay for the hours any given project or instance was running.

If you need quick response times for supporting you with critical issues, you can optionally book a paid support plan.
