Alongside the move to volume-based billing, Spider’s licensing has moved from a single flat commercial offer to three tiers.

What separates them is not what Spider can see. Every protocol and TLS decryption is free. What the paid tiers add is collaboration, administration and unlimited volume.

BASIC - free, self-hosted, 1 TB per month

BASIC is free and self-hosted, and it carries the full capture and analysis capability set: HTTP, TCP, PostgreSQL and Redis decode, gRPC and Kafka decode, TLS decryption and key capture, binary transcoding, and the multi-protocol correlated timeline. On top of that, the complete analysis and reporting UI, sensitive-data filtering and removal, keyed PCAP-NG export, and self-registration with API, CLI, Claude and service-account access.

What bounds BASIC is volume, not features: 1 TB of captured traffic per calendar month, metered across your whole organisation, with a 7-day default retention.

You get a warning at 80% and 90% of that ceiling. At 100%, new capture pauses until the calendar month resets, which happens automatically with no action needed - everything already captured stays fully searchable the whole time, and no capability is withdrawn. Subscribing to TEAM or ENTERPRISE removes the ceiling entirely.

TEAM - for a working team, volume-priced

TEAM lifts the volume ceiling and adds what a team needs to work together: the Config Playground, per-agent Custom Data Storage Policies, one team with user roles and account validation, alerting over mail and Prometheus, internal link and dashboard sharing, plugins, and S3 backup. TEAM starts from €1,000/year.

ENTERPRISE - multi-team and admin-ready

ENTERPRISE builds on TEAM with everything a larger organisation needs to run Spider centrally: multi-team and multi-tenant support, SSO via OIDC or LDAP, user administration and impersonation, external public links, access-filter authoring, and a usage-statistics dashboard. ENTERPRISE starts from €3,000/year.

The full feature-by-feature comparison - every row, across all three tiers - is on the Pricing page, along with the pool estimator to see what your own volume would cost on TEAM or ENTERPRISE.
