description: >-
  Nitric is open-source software licensed under Apache 2.0 and is free to use -
  the framework, SDKs, and CLI carry no subscription or usage fee. There are no
  Nitric pricing tiers for the core framework; you only pay your target cloud
  provider (AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure) for the resources your application
  actually provisions and runs. A separate commercial offering (Suga / Nitric
  Cloud) exists in the Nitric ecosystem, but its specific plans and pricing are
  not reconciled in this artifact.
notes: >-
  Open-source and free under Apache 2.0; real cost is whatever your target cloud
  charges for the provisioned resources. Verify any commercial Suga / Nitric
  Cloud tiers and pricing directly with Nitric during reconciliation.
