Pipecat Ai Plans Pricing
The Pipecat framework (the open-source pipecat-ai Python library) is free and open source under the BSD 2-Clause license; there is no charge to use, embed, or self-host it. Costs arise only from the third-party AI services (STT, LLM, TTS, vision) and media transports a developer wires into a pipeline, billed directly by those vendors. Pipecat Cloud, the optional hosted platform from Daily, charges usage-based per-minute rates for agent compute profiles plus add-ons (transport, recording, noise suppression, telephony). Representative Pipecat Cloud rates below are not reconciled and should be confirmed against the pricing page.
