Augment Code is an AI coding platform built around its Context Engine, which indexes large codebases, and Cosmos, a system of agents that turns tickets into pull requests, reviews code and handles incidents. Pricing changed to a flat team fee: Standard costs $20 a month and Business $100, each for up to 50 seats, and the fee is your included usage. Usage is billed at the model provider's public API price plus a 40% service fee, with Cosmos compute at $0.19 an hour, and top-ups are pay as you go. There is no free plan on the pricing page, and paid plans exclude training on your data.

Fifty developers, one $20 bill: that is the oddest line on any AI coding price list this year, and it belongs to Augment Code. The company built its reputation on the Context Engine, an index that lets an AI assistant understand codebases far too large to paste into a prompt. In 2026 it added a second layer called Cosmos. There, agents take a ticket, write the change, review the pull request and investigate alerts, while engineers approve at checkpoints. The pricing changed to match, and it now works unlike any other coding tool.
Flat team plans as listed on October 2, 2026.
| Standard | Business | Enterprise | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly fee | $20 | $100 | Custom |
| Included usage | $20 | $100 | Custom |
| Seats | Up to 50 | Up to 50 | Unlimited |
| Cosmos sessions at once | 50 | 50 | Unlimited |
| Extras | CLI, MCP, Code Review | Same | SSO, SCIM, CMEK, data residency, dedicated support |
There is no per-seat charge. The fee buys usage that the whole team draws from. Once it runs out you top up as you go, and top-ups stay valid for 12 months. The difference between Standard and Business is only how much usage is included.
Usage is counted in dollars, from three parts. Model tokens are billed at the provider's public API list price. On top, Augment adds a flat 40% service fee on that spend to pay for the Context Engine and Cosmos. Cosmos compute costs $0.19 an hour, billed in five-minute steps. Augment's own example of a typical Business month is $70 of tokens, $28 of service fee and $2 of compute.
That makes the real price easy to reason about. Whatever your developers would spend on the API directly, Augment costs about 1.4 times that, with the plan fee as a minimum. A team of ten doing occasional AI work might stay within Standard's $20. A team running agents on frontier models all day will spend far more, just as it would on raw API keys. Against tools billed per person, such as Cursor at $40 a user for teams, Augment wins for large teams with uneven use. Small teams of heavy users pay more.
Cosmos is where the product is heading. It organizes work into loops, each run by template Experts. A PR Author builds a change from a ticket, and a PR Fixer repairs review findings, CI failures and merge conflicts. Reviewers handle quick or line-by-line checks, and a Risk Analyzer routes complex changes to people. Other agents triage incidents and fix vulnerabilities. Triggers come from GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Linear, Jira, schedules and webhooks. Agents run in Augment's cloud sandboxes, on self-hosted daemons or on a laptop. Augment's own figures on the homepage, such as 66% faster time to merge for code review, are its claims rather than independent measurements.
For individual developers, the Auggie CLI brings the same agent to the terminal. Clients for VS Code, JetBrains IDEs and Vim or Neovim remain, and Code Review for GitHub pull requests comes with every plan.
Augment is model-agnostic. Its list covers Anthropic's Fable 5.1, Opus and Sonnet models and OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6.1 Sol. Google's Gemini 3.8 Flash and 3.1 Pro are there too, along with xAI's Grok 4.6. Open models such as GLM 5.3 Flash and Kimi K3 run on Fireworks and Baseten. Prism, Augment's router, picks among Claude, Gemini or GPT models per request. Every model is billed at its own list price plus the fee. Picking a cheaper model for routine work is the main way to control the bill.
The 40% service fee pays for the Context Engine and Cosmos, and it applies to every token you spend. Heavy users pay noticeably more than they would on their own API keys. There's no free plan to evaluate on. Standard and Business come with community support plus tickets under Augment's SLA, and dedicated support is reserved for Enterprise. Teams larger than 50 people also have to move to Enterprise. Top-ups, at least, stay valid for 12 months after purchase.
Augment fits engineering teams with large repositories, or many of them, where the Context Engine matters. It also suits teams ready to let agents take tickets and first-pass reviews. Individuals have cheaper options: Claude Code is included with a $20 Claude plan, GitHub Copilot is the default inside GitHub, and Cursor remains the better editor. Our Claude Code vs Cursor comparison helps with that choice, and our AI coding tools guide ranks the rest.
No. The pricing page lists Standard at $20 a month and Business at $100, with no free plan, and trials get only community support. The $20 buys $20 of usage for the whole team rather than a seat, so a light user's cost can stay close to the base fee.
Each plan is a flat monthly fee that covers up to 50 seats and comes back to you as included usage: $20 on Standard, $100 on Business. Usage is measured in dollars: model tokens at the provider's public API list price, a flat 40% service fee on that LLM spend, and Cosmos compute at $0.19 an hour in five-minute increments. After the included amount, top-ups are pay as you go and last 12 months.
Claude Code is Anthropic's coding agent, included in Claude subscriptions from $20 a month per person and built around Anthropic's models. Augment offers many labs' models, including Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, GLM and Kimi, on top of its Context Engine, and its Cosmos platform runs team pipelines such as ticket to pull request and automated review. Claude Code is cheaper for one heavy user on a subscription; Augment suits teams that want shared agents and usage-based billing.
Cursor is an editor with agents, priced per person from $20 a month. Augment is less about the editor and more about the codebase and the pipeline: its Context Engine for large repositories, the Auggie CLI and Cosmos agents that work from tickets, pull requests and alerts. A developer who wants the best AI editor picks Cursor; a team that wants agents working across many repositories picks Augment.
Not on paid plans. Augment's pricing FAQ says all paid plans exclude AI training on your data under its commercial terms, and it lists SOC 2 Type II, with CMEK and ISO 42001 compliance on Enterprise.
The fast issue tracker for software teams, now built for agents too: free up to 250 issues, Basic $10 and Business $16 per user a month billed yearly.
The AI code editor most developers compare against, now owned by SpaceX: Pro from $16 a month yearly, agents, Projects and its own Composer models.
A free terminal coding agent that commits every change to git. It still works with almost any model, but its releases have slowed to a trickle.
