Hatchet pricing
Hatchet publishes 4 tiers. Below is each one, what it adds over the tier beneath it, and where the ladder stops being worth climbing for most people.
As of 31 August 2026, Hatchet pricing is free, then $500/month across 4 published tiers. Figures are the vendor's list prices as recorded on this page's last check; the vendor's site is the final word.

Hatchet 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.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Developer | Free | 4 | Entry tier |
| Team | $500/month | 4 | +$500/month, 4 more features |
| Scale | $1000/month | 4 | +$500/month, 4 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.

What the product covers
The full Hatchet feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Postgres-backed queue
- Durable execution
- DAG workflows
- Concurrency and fairness
- Rate limiting
- Cron and scheduling
- Multi-language SDKs
- Self-hosting
People bring Hatchet in for an ai product running long agent pipelines that must survive worker restarts and resume mid-workflow, a team that outgrew celery and wants concurrency keys, fairness and rate limiting without building them, an engineering group that wants durable execution self-hosted with no datastore beyond the postgres they already run, a multi-tenant saas that needs one noisy customer's jobs not to starve everyone else's. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Hatchet are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Before you pay for Hatchet
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: 4 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.
Hatchet runs on linux, docker, kubernetes, cloud, and is published by Hatchet of New York, New York, United States. The full record is on the Hatchet review, and the rest of the category is under best automation integration tools.
