The short version
- Each has a real cost: Codacy team plan is capped at 30 developers before Business pricing is required.; Comet ML the free cloud tier caps data at 25,000 spans a month with 60 day retention
- They diverge on capability: Codacy covers Automated code review, Comet ML covers Experiment tracking.
Where they differ
Only the attributes on which Codacy and Comet ML actually diverge.
Identical on both: starting price (Free), pricing model (freemium), free tier (Yes), user rating (Not yet rated).

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Codacy
- Team plan is capped at 30 developers before Business pricing is required.
- Advanced security features like DAST and container scanning are Business-tier only.
- Business plan pricing is not published and requires contacting sales.
- Annual plans require 30 days' notice to modify or cancel before renewal.
Comet ML
- The free cloud tier caps data at 25,000 spans a month with 60 day retention
- Retention stays at 60 days even on the paid Pro plan, and extending it is a $29 per 100k spans add on
- Overage on Pro is $5 per additional 100,000 spans
- The free MLOps tier is a single user with 100 GB of storage and training hours governed by a fair usage policy
- Pro MLOps is $19 per user per month and caps the team at 10 users
