Crucible

Pricing

There isn’t any.

Crucible is no longer a commercial product. Every tier that used to cost money — including Enterprise — is now baked into the free download. No account, no licence key, no payment, no expiry.

Crucible is now a free research tool. Download it, point it at a local or cloud model, and run. Nothing is gated, metered, or phoning home for a licence check.

What happened to the paid plans?

Crucible started as a paid product with accounts, tiers, and billing. That’s retired. The login database and payment processing have been shut down, and rather than leave features locked behind a door with no key, everything is being released free. Existing purchasers keep what they paid for — it just costs nobody anything now.

Your research still never leaves your machine. There is no account to create, nothing to cancel, and no data of yours on our side to lose.
