Pricing & Free Trial

$44/month after a 7-day free trial. No surprise costs — you bring your own AI provider key.

What this is

Beach is $44/month after a 7-day free trial. There's one plan, and the price covers everything Beach does for you. The one cost Beach doesn't cover is your AI provider — that bill goes directly from you to Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, or whoever you choose. We do that on purpose: you pick the model, you control the spend, and Beach doesn't mark up tokens.

What's included

For $44/month, your subscription gives you:

  • A dedicated server running 24/7 in AWS us-east-1, just for your agent — no shared tenancy
  • Automatic backups of your agent's data, taken daily and retained on Beach
  • Encrypted storage for your provider keys and channel tokens
  • All channel integrations as they ship — Telegram is live today; Discord, WhatsApp, Slack, Signal, and iMessage are on the way and roll out at no extra cost
  • Instance controls — start, stop, restore, and reset your server from your dashboard
  • Email support

What's not included

The cost of your AI provider's API. Your agent needs a model to think — Claude, GPT, Gemini, etc. — and you supply your own API key for that. Charges go straight from your provider to you, not through Beach. Most users land in the $5–$30/month range depending on how chatty they are and which model they pick, but heavy users on premium models can spend more. See Choosing a provider for cost guidance per provider.

You can switch providers or models any time in Beach Settings — useful for tuning cost vs. quality.

The free trial

Your first 7 days are free, with full access. After that, your subscription begins at $44/month and renews monthly. You can cancel any time before the trial ends to avoid the first charge, or any time after to stop future charges — see Cancelling for the exact steps.

Cancel any time

No annual contract. You're billed monthly and can cancel from your dashboard whenever you want. After cancellation, your instance keeps running until the end of the current billing period, and your data is retained for 14 days in case you change your mind. After that, it's deleted. See What happens to my data when I cancel? for the full timeline.
