GrowthBook calls itself the open source leader in feature flagging and experimentation, and its pricing reflects that background: plans are priced per seat with unlimited experiments, flags and traffic, rather than by visitors. The free Starter plan covers up to 3 users and 1 project, with a bring your own warehouse option or a managed warehouse. Pro costs $40 per seat per month for up to 30 users and 3 projects, and adds the AI Visual Editor, split URL tests, multi-arm bandits, safe rollouts, a power calculator and customizable dashboards. The statistics list is long, with Bayesian and frequentist engines, CUPED, sequential testing and SRM detection. Enterprise adds approval workflows, SSO and SCIM, audit log exports and a 99.99% uptime SLA. The tradeoff is setup: GrowthBook reads metrics from your warehouse, so teams without clean data in BigQuery, Snowflake or similar will need the managed option or some data engineering first.
