Lightpanda Plans Pricing

Lightpanda ships in two forms. The core headless browser is open source under AGPL-3.0 and is free to download, self-host, and run (binary, Docker, or nightly builds) - the local CDP-over-WebSocket server (`lightpanda serve`) carries no usage fee. Lightpanda Cloud is a managed CDP browser service reached over secure WebSocket; access is request-based and usage-metered, but public pricing was not published as of this artifact, so Cloud pricing is not reconciled here.

Lightpanda Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Lightpanda on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.

It defines 2 plans, covering free and usage tiers, with named plans including Open Source (Self-Hosted), Lightpanda Cloud.

Tagged areas include Headless Browser, Browser Automation, CDP, WebSocket, and AI Agents.
