Superblocks

  • Teams plan is limited to just 1 hosted app by default, with additional apps costing $10/app/month.
  • Usage is capped by Governed Agent Units, adding a metering layer beyond a flat per-seat price.
  • Advanced deployment options like VPC and Cloud-Prem are reserved for the custom-priced Enterprise tier.
  • No published free tier, only a 14-day trial, making it harder to evaluate at no cost long-term.
