Temporal Io Plans Pricing
Temporal has two consumption models. The core Temporal server is open source (MIT) and free to self-host with no license fee - you pay only for your own infrastructure. Temporal Cloud is the managed offering, sold in four plans (Essentials, Business, Enterprise, Mission Critical) with consumption-based billing on Actions, plus active and retained storage. Actions are the primary billable unit (starting a workflow, recording a heartbeat, sending a signal, timers, retries, etc.). Actions are volume-tiered starting at $50 per million and decreasing with scale. All APIs (WorkflowService gRPC, the HTTP API, the OperatorService, and the Cloud Operations API) are included with a namespace; there is no separate per-API-call charge beyond Actions and storage.
Temporal Io Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Temporal on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 5 plans, covering free, usage, and enterprise tiers, with named plans including Open Source (Self-Hosted), Temporal Cloud - Essentials, Temporal Cloud - Business, Temporal Cloud - Enterprise, Temporal Cloud - Mission Critical.
Tagged areas include Durable Execution, Workflow Orchestration, Temporal Cloud, Open Source, and Plans.
