Ona (formerly Gitpod) plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | 3 | Entry tier |
| Core | $20/month | 5 | +$20/month, 5 more features |
| Enterprise | On request | 4 | Priced on request |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

People bring Ona (formerly Gitpod) in for giving a large engineering team identical, disposable environments so onboarding is a link rather than a two day setup, running several coding agents in parallel against real databases and services instead of on a laptop, keeping source code off contractor and offshore laptops by moving the whole environment into a controlled account, reproducing a hard-to-configure toolchain for a short-lived project without polluting anyone machine. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Ona (formerly Gitpod) are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Before you pay for Ona (formerly Gitpod)
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 3 tiers between Free and On request, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Ona (formerly Gitpod) runs on web, linux, macos, windows, aws, google cloud platform, and is published by Ona (part of OpenAI) of Distributed. The full record is on the Ona (formerly Gitpod) review, and the rest of the category is under best developer tools tools.
