Pricing
Every ReadyStack linter is free for the file you have open. Keys pay for the workspace sweep, the report and the CI exit code.
| Plan | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free | All rules on the file open in your editor (VS Code, Cursor, VSCodium), on the CLI (npx @readystack/<name> <file>) and as an MCP server (check_text, check_file). No key, no account, no limit, nothing withheld. | $0 |
| Single linter | Workspace sweep (--dir), report export (csv, json, html), --ci exit code, MCP check_dir. The full run is free for the first 7 days, then one key for that linter. | $29 once |
| Team key | One key for every ReadyStack linter, 5 seats, CI use via the READYSTACK_LICENSE environment variable. Invoice with VAT. | $149 once |
A few regulation tools are priced higher on their own page when the deliverable is the audit-ready report rather than the lint. The price on the product page is the price; there is no upsell inside the tool.
Refunds and payment
7-day refund on every key, no questions. Payment and invoices are handled by Polar as merchant of record, so VAT is on the invoice and card details never reach us.
Why free per file
A linter you cannot try on your real file is a brochure. The per-file check is complete on purpose; what a team pays for is running it across the whole repository, on a schedule, with a report someone else can read.
