The Govee Developer API is free. Any Govee Home App user can apply for a personal API key (Profile > About Us > Apply for API Key) and use the cloud REST API at no charge to enumerate their devices, query state, and send control commands. There are no paid API tiers, per-call charges, or subscription required for the developer API - the only cost to a consumer is buying Govee hardware. Usage is instead governed by rate limits (10,000 requests per account per day, plus a per-device per-minute limit). The local LAN API is likewise free and requires no key. Govee has not published a commercial/enterprise API plan.
