Envoy Plans Pricing
Envoy is a CNCF-graduated open-source edge and service proxy. The project itself is free software (Apache 2.0); there is no commercial pricing for the Envoy Admin API, xDS APIs, Envoy API V3, Envoy Gateway, or Envoy AI Gateway. Commercial support / managed offerings are available from third-party vendors (e.g. Tetrate, Solo.io, cloud providers) under their own pricing — not from the Envoy project.
