Plans
Individual
Start hereRun Excellent locally.
No credit card, ever.
- The local app, CLI, verification loop and receipt viewer
- Works with the agents you already use — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and more
- Independent evidence from tests, builds, browsers and Git
- Local attempts, results and receipts, exportable any time
- Bring your own model key — agents bill to your account, never ours
Team
CI, baselines, experiments, policy.
Self-hosted team sync is in beta today.
- Everything in Individual
- Verification in CI, beside the checks you already run
- Baselines captured before the work, so before-and-after is provable
- Experiments that compare agent setups on your own tasks
- Team policy for what counts as done and what needs a person
Deployment
Work directly with Excellent engineers.
Engagements start at $10,000/month. No minimum term.
- Everything in Team
- Hands-on installation and integration in your environment
- Custom checks and evidence integrations built for your workflow
- Release gates and policy review
- Team training and an operating cadence
- Direct access to the engineers doing the work — not a ticket queue
Every tier includes the same verification loop, local receipts, and agent integration — you bring your own model key.
Excellent Deployment
Excellent engineers work alongside your team to find the workflows where agents create real leverage, build them into your systems, and establish the verification required to let them act. What we learn in the field becomes part of Excellent.
How Excellent Deployment works. Handing the decision to someone else? Brief for your CTO is the ten-slide walkthrough, and enterprise and procurement answers the deployment, access-control and security-review questions. Prefer email? Write to hello@excellent.so.
Verification setup
We stand up Excellent against a real repo, connect the agent you already use, and capture the first attempt-to-result loop.
Custom checks
Need proof from a source Excellent does not ship yet? We build the gate or integration so it lands on the result.
Training & support
Onboarding for your team, release-rule review, and help reading results, returning failures, and comparing agent setups.
Questions about the price
Yes, for individuals. The app is a free download you run on your own machine, with no seats to buy and nothing metered for local verification. Team features are in early access; contact us to join.
From teams. Team features are in early access, and Deployment (hands-on setup, custom checks, evidence integrations, policy review and training with Excellent engineers) is a paid engagement starting at $10,000/month.
About eight hours a week of hands-on time — roughly a day a week — scheduled with you and spent on the priorities you set. It is a stated commitment, not unlimited access: anything beyond it is $275 an hour, and we only bill for extra hours you agreed to in writing first. The software licence is included at no extra charge, whether or not you ever hire us.
No. The first month's fee is due at signing, billing is monthly from there, and you can cancel at any time from your client portal — it takes effect at the end of the month you have already paid for. There is no deposit, no minimum term, and no termination fee.
You bring your own model key — Claude, Codex, Gemini, or Grok. It's sealed on your machine and the agents bill to your account, never to us. Run it as hot or as light as you like.
Yes. Use it on real repositories, solo or with a team. Receipts and local state live in files you control and can export.
A small server you run yourself — Docker, DigitalOcean, or any VPS, typically $4–12/month billed by your provider, and we charge nothing on top. Excellent never hosts or sees it. Team sync is beta and it is hands-on: adding or removing a teammate is an edit to the server's device allowlist followed by a restart, not a link you send. Verification evidence does not sync yet, so a teammate cannot open the proof behind your result. The self-host guide walks through it →
