- Earlier ad-supported free-credit scheme superseded: 'Amp Free no longer shows ads' (ampcode.com/news/amp-free-frontier update).
More plan details
- Not listed on the pages we checked; preserved.
- no monthly fee does not prove a free AI allowance - not stated on the pages we checked. 2026-10-27: BYOK/self-hosted free use is not an included hosted free AI allowance.
- Orbs (remote agent machines) billed by the minute; a paused orb costs nothing (auto-pauses 5 min after agent stops or 20 min after last interaction).
- Gigawatt is the higher member tier (65% usage discount per vendor); Megawatt/Gigawatt tier names appear on the team-member selector.
- Web (ampcode.com, no install); macOS app; iOS app (iPhone/iPad); CLI (terminal, editor terminal, scripts).
- No Windows-native surface documented on the introduction page.
