Poolside Ai Plans Pricing

Poolside publishes no public price list, self-serve checkout, or free API tier. The poolside.ai marketing site has no pricing or contact-sales page in its navigation as of this review; engagement runs through direct conversations with Poolside's sales/solutions team, arranged via the "Government" and "Careers" contact surfaces or the company's own outreach. What is publicly documented is the delivery model, not the price: a full stack of models, agents, APIs, and applications deployed into infrastructure the customer controls (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud VPC, or fully on-prem / air-gapped), either on Poolside-pre-provisioned hardware (a single node supporting hundreds of developers) or on the customer's own NVIDIA GPU cluster installed via Helm. The one channel that is genuinely self-serve is third-party: Poolside's smaller open-weight model, Laguna XS 2.1, can be called through OpenRouter's own usage-based, pay-as-you-go pricing, which is OpenRouter's plan, not Poolside's.

Plans

Enterprise - Cloud VPC enterprise

Poolside deployed into the customer's own AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud account/VPC, with full model weights delivered into that environment. Engagement and pricing are negotiated directly with Poolside.

Enterprise Cloud Agreement (contract · year) contact sales USD
Enterprise - On-Prem / Air-Gapped enterprise

Poolside installed on customer-owned NVIDIA GPU infrastructure via Helm, or on Poolside-pre-provisioned hardware, including fully air-gapped configurations with no external network dependency. Pricing depends on hardware, support, and scale and is negotiated directly with Poolside.

Enterprise On-Prem Agreement (contract · year) contact sales USD
Laguna XS 2.1 via OpenRouter (Third-Party) usage

Not a Poolside plan - OpenRouter's own usage-based pricing for calling Poolside's open-weight Laguna XS 2.1 model through OpenRouter's unified API. Included here because it is the only publicly self-serve way to call a Poolside model over HTTP without a Poolside sales engagement.

Per-Token Usage (OpenRouter) (tokens · month) see openrouter.ai/poolside for current per-token rates USD
