Summary

Prefect has introduced new self-serve plans, Starter and Team, to accommodate growing teams transitioning from personal projects to more robust production environments, addressing the gap between their Hobby and Enterprise tiers. The new plans offer flexible compute options, including a fully managed Prefect Serverless platform, allowing teams to choose between managed infrastructure, their own setup, or a combination of both. This flexibility is complemented by seat-based pricing, ensuring predictable costs without concerns over usage fees, which can restrict task management on other platforms. Prefect Serverless provides execution credits used only during runtime, optimizing cost efficiency. The new plans enable teams to scale their workflows seamlessly, with an easy transition path from Hobby to Starter and Team, and ultimately to Pro/Enterprise for advanced security and control. Starting from April 15, these plans are accessible, allowing users to upgrade based on their requirements and scale their operations confidently without altering their workflow processes.
