Each plan includes a defined set of emulated AWS services. For the complete service list by plan, see Emulated Services. For plan-level capabilities and entitlements, see Plan Comparison.

Plans unlock different platform capabilities such as Cloud Pods (shared cloud state), Ephemeral environments (cloud previews/sandboxes), IAM tooling, AWS Replicator, and enterprise governance/deployment options. For a full breakdown, see Plan Comparison.

The Hobby plan offers a similar level of AWS service emulation as the legacy Community edition, and is designed for hobbyists and others experimenting with AWS recreationally. This makes the Hobby plan the ideal fit for hobbyists looking to maintain access to a fully maintained version of LocalStack for AWS.

The terms of the Hobby plan prohibit use for commercial purposes. Those looking to run LocalStack for AWS in support of commercial software development processes should consider our Base, Ultimate, and Enterprise licenses.

Yes. LocalStack supports CI/CD usage across plans and requires authentication via an auth token (including CI auth tokens where applicable). CI usage is subject to our Fair Usage policy and your plan’s terms.

If you’re using LocalStack for commercial CI/CD or shared team pipelines, choose a paid plan or talk to our sales team.

CI credits were previously used to meter CI consumption. LocalStack for AWS no longer differentiates plans using CI credits. CI usage is available across plans and remains subject to Fair Use and your plan’s terms.

If you are an active LocalStack customer under a plan with CI credits, this means your usage will no longer count toward the monthly limits previously imposed on your CI consumption.

Ephemeral environments let you run a temporary LocalStack instance in the cloud for previews, sandboxes, or isolated testing. You can access them via the LocalStack Web App or by pointing your tools/integrations at the instance endpoint.

Usage is measured in minutes: an Ephemeral instance running for 1 minute consumes 1 minute from your plan’s workspace allowance.

Cloud Pods enable shared, reproducible environment state stored in the cloud—ideal for platform teams standardizing environments and for developers sharing the same setup. Storage is allocated per workspace. “Lifetime” indicates the included storage capacity persists for the workspace (not a monthly reset), subject to plan limits and fair use.

LocalStack for Snowflake is a separate product from LocalStack for AWS, with its own emulator coverage and plan entitlements. For the latest feature and coverage details, see the LocalStack for Snowflake documentation.

No—LocalStack for AWS and LocalStack for Snowflake are distinct offerings and require separate licenses. If you want both under a single account or procurement motion, get in touch with our sales team to discuss packaging options.

Yes. Base is self-serve with monthly or annual billing (annual discount shown at checkout). 

‍Ultimate is billed annually by default and is also available monthly via AWS Marketplace. 

‍Enterprise pricing is custom via sales.

For invoicing, PO-based procurement, or non-card terms, contact our team.

No,a credit card is not required to start a free trial of LocalStack. 

Workspace admins can add licenses at any time. During a trial, you can typically add seats at no cost. During an active subscription, added licenses are billed on a prorated basis (aligned to your billing cycle).

Manage seats in Settings → Billing, and see Managing Users and Licenses for step-by-step instructions.

No. User licenses are assigned to a single individual and are not intended to be pooled across multiple developers concurrently. Licenses can typically be reassigned by admins (for example, when someone changes teams), subject to plan rules and terms.

LocalStack supports popular developer tools and CI systems, including IDE integrations (like VS Code) and common CI providers. For the current list, see Integrations in our documentation.

The LocalStack Community emulator refers to the legacy open source distribution of LocalStack for AWS (previously available as the Community image). LocalStack for AWS is now delivered as an account-based experience using a single image and plan entitlements. The LocalStack Community emulator will no longer receive product updates going forward. To learn more about this change, visit this blog.

The Hobby plan is free for non-commercial use and provides comparable core emulation capabilities to the legacy Community distribution, while paid plans add commercial use rights and platform entitlements for teams (for example: Cloud Pods, Ephemeral environments, IAM tooling, AWS Replicator, and enterprise governance/deployment options). For details, see Plan Comparison.

Note: LocalStack for Snowflake does not have a community (open source) emulator.

The LocalStack Community emulator will no longer receive product updates going forward, including security patches for Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures (CVEs).
Registering an account provides access to run a fully maintained version of LocalStack for AWS going forward, which will receive regular updates to maintain parity with AWS services, access new capabilities, and maintain security and compliance.
‍
Paid plans are designed for teams standardizing LocalStack as part of their delivery infrastructure. They add capabilities such as per-developer auth tokens, shared state via Cloud Pods, Ephemeral preview environments, advanced IAM tooling, AWS Replicator, and enterprise governance/deployment options.

Support tiers differ by responsiveness, coverage, and the level of guidance included. Enterprise support typically includes more tailored onboarding and ongoing partnership. For details, see Support Model.

In many cases, yes—after authentication is completed (for example, validating your auth token). Some features may require periodic connectivity depending on your plan and configuration.

For fully offline environments, Enterprise can support offline and air-gapped image
delivery.

See Auth Token and Offline/Air-gapped documentation.

Yes. Enterprise plans can include SSO and SCIM for centralized authentication and automated user provisioning, along with additional governance and deployment options. Contact our sales team for availability and configuration.

Yes. Enterprise plans can include additional AWS regions and GovCloud support depending on requirements. Contact Sales to confirm availability.
