Quick Answer

The Free plan is permanent at $0 with monthly test caps. Team has a 5-developer minimum and 10-developer maximum per organization (snyk.io/plans, September 2026).
Snyk's billing unit is the contributing developer, defined as anyone who committed to a monitored private repository in the last 90 days. Casual contributors do not count.

Snyk plans and what each tier unlocks
Snyk sells four plans with the contributing developer as the billing unit. Free covers all four products (SCA, SAST, IaC, Container) with monthly test caps suitable for individual developers. Team is the entry paid tier for small teams needing Jira integration and license compliance. Ignite is the enterprise-bridge tier for organizations under 50 developers that want governance features without a fully custom Enterprise quote. Enterprise is quote-only for larger organizations and regulated industries (snyk.io/plans, September 2026).
| Plan | Monthly per developer | Annual per developer | Developer cap | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | Unlimited | Individual developers, small teams under test cap |
| Team | $25 | $25 × 12 × 0.92 = ~$276 | 5 minimum, 10 maximum | Small teams needing Jira integration |
| Ignite | ~$105 | $1,260 | Up to 50 developers | Mid-market under 50 developers wanting enterprise features |
| Enterprise | Quote | Quote | Unlimited | Large organizations, regulated industries |
The 8 percent annual billing discount on Team is modest but compounds over multi-year engagements. Ignite's annual billing is mandatory and unlocks the full governance feature set including SAML SSO, custom user roles, and service accounts. Enterprise is the only tier that adds FedRAMP compliance, which is the gating requirement for US federal contractors and most regulated industries (frontdeskreview.com, June 2026).
What is included in each Snyk product
Snyk bills per developer across the products that organization activates. A typical Snyk deployment combines Open Source (SCA), Code (SAST), Container, and Infrastructure as Code scanning. Each product has its own test limits on Free and Team, while Ignite and Enterprise bundle all products with unlimited tests (PocketLantern, March 2026).
| Product | Free | Team | Ignite | Enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Snyk Open Source (SCA) | 200 tests per month | 1,000 tests per month | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Snyk Code (SAST) | 100 tests per month | Up to 1,000 tests per month | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Snyk Container | 100 tests per month | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Snyk IaC | 300 tests per month | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Snyk DAST | Not included | Not included | 10 DAST targets | Unlimited |
| Snyk Evo (AI security) | Not included | Not included | Available as add-on | Available as add-on |
The single biggest budgeting mistake on Snyk is counting seats as total engineering headcount rather than contributing developers. A 200-engineer organization with only 60 active committers in monitored repos pays for 60, not 200. The contributing developer definition keeps the bill aligned with actual security footprint (snyk.io, September 2026).
Snyk Evo and the AI security add-on
Snyk Evo is the platform tier that extends Snyk coverage to AI-generated code and AI agents. Snyk Evo adds security posture management for AI models, agents, and MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. The Snyk Evo tier sits above Ignite on the published plan matrix and is sold separately from the core developer-security products. Most AI-forward engineering teams adopt Snyk Evo alongside Ignite or Enterprise to address the new attack surface that AI-generated code introduces (toolchase.com, May 2026).
Snyk Evo's pricing is not separately published on the standard plans page. Buyers evaluating Snyk Evo need to engage sales for a custom quote, but the Snyk Evo scope fits cleanly into the per-developer model that Snyk already uses for the core products. Expect Snyk Evo to add a percentage uplift to the per-developer Ignite or Enterprise rate for the subset of developers who contribute to AI-generated code, AI model evaluation, or agent workflow code (toolchase.com, May 2026).
When Snyk Team runs out and the migration to Ignite
The 10-developer Team cap is the trigger that pushes most growing teams to Ignite. Snyk's pricing FAQ explicitly directs customers needing more than 10 Team licenses to contact sales about Ignite and Enterprise. Ignite removes most admin and integration blockers (reports, private package registries, SAML SSO, custom user roles) without forcing a fully custom Enterprise quote at the outset (PocketLantern, March 2026).
The migration path matters because Ignite is annual-only and locks the team into a year-long commitment. Teams under the 10-developer Team cap have a choice between staying on Team (per developer per month billing) or moving to Ignite (annual billing, $1,260 per developer per year). For a 10-developer Team at list price ($25 × 12 = $300 per developer per year), Ignite at $1,260 per developer per year represents a roughly 4× price step. The trade is that Ignite unlocks the governance features the team will need within a year, while Team stays usable for compliance-light use cases (frontdeskreview.com, June 2026).
