If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details.

See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for the GigaOps Security Agent, billed per running EC2 instance. Each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type, so your rate depends on the instance you choose. Options span general-purpose (m, t), compute-optimized (c), memory-optimized (r, x, z), storage-optimized (d, i, h), and accelerated computing (g, p, inf, trn) families. Larger instance sizes carry higher hourly rates. Pricing scales with the number and size of instances you run, plus your total hours of use. You add standard AWS infrastructure charges separately.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit map to for billing?
Each unit is one running EC2 instance of the type you select. You are billed per hour that instance runs the GigaOps Security Agent. Every instance you launch meters separately, so ten running instances generate ten hourly charges. The rate you pay depends on which instance type you chose.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or paused?
Software charges meter running hours only. A stopped or paused instance does not accrue the hourly software fee. You may still owe underlying AWS fees, such as storage for attached volumes, since those are billed by AWS separately from this software.
Do I commit upfront, or pay only for what I use?
This is pay-as-you-go. There is no upfront commitment. Charges accrue by the hour for each running instance and stop when you stop the instance. This suits variable workloads where you scale instances up or down and pay only for actual running time.
