## Overview

GraphQL Code Generator is an open-source tool maintained by The Guild. The core code generation library is freely available under the MIT license with no paid tiers for the codegen tool itself. Pricing is associated with The Guild's broader GraphQL Hive platform, which provides schema registry, observability, and CI/CD integrations.
