The short version

  • Only Semgrep has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: LogicManager the flat fee is quoted per organisation and not published, so the pricing model that makes LogicManager attractive still cannot be compared without a sales process.; Semgrep free tier caps out at 10 contributors and 10 repositories.
  • They diverge on capability: LogicManager covers Risk taxonomy, Semgrep covers Static code scanning.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

LogicManager

  • The flat fee is quoted per organisation and not published, so the pricing model that makes LogicManager attractive still cannot be compared without a sales process.
  • Configuration depth means the taxonomy has to be designed properly before rollout, and organisations that skip that step end up with a structure that cannot answer the linkage questions the tool exists to answer.
  • Reporting and dashboarding are functional rather than flexible, and teams wanting bespoke board reporting commonly export to Power BI, which reintroduces the manual step they were removing.
  • Quantitative risk modelling is limited compared with specialist tools, so organisations needing Monte Carlo style loss simulation will need something else alongside it.
  • The user interface is dated relative to newer compliance automation tools, and infrequent business users often need repeat training, which erodes the participation benefit that unlimited licensing is supposed to deliver.

Semgrep

  • Free tier caps out at 10 contributors and 10 repositories.
  • Secrets scanning is priced as a separate module ($15/contributor) from Code and Supply Chain.
  • Self-managed repositories and custom CI/CD require the Enterprise tier.
  • AI credits are limited per tier and additional usage requires upgrading.

The Free edition covers up to 10 contributors; Teams starts at $30/contributor/month for Code scanning (Supply Chain also $30, Secrets $15); Enterprise is custom-priced.

LogicManager: What does it cost?

Not published. Mid-market ERM platforms of this class typically sit in the low tens of thousands of dollars a year, quoted by scope.

Semgrep: Is there a free plan, and what are its limits?

Yes, the Free edition supports up to 10 contributors and 10 repositories with Code and Supply Chain scanning plus 60 AI credits total.

LogicManager: Is it a compliance automation tool like Drata?

No. It is enterprise risk management with audit and vendor risk, not continuous control monitoring for SOC 2 evidence collection.

Semgrep: How is usage metered?

Pricing is per contributor, defined as someone who made at least one commit to a scanned private repository in the past 90 days.

Source
LogicManager: How long does implementation take?

Weeks to a few months, far shorter than the enterprise GRC suites, provided the risk taxonomy is agreed up front.

Semgrep: Is there special pricing for startups?
