Litmus Edge 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation | $1500/month | 3 | Entry tier |
| Growth | On request | 3 | Priced on request |
| Scale | On request | 3 | 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.
Foundation
$1500/monthThe entry tier. It covers entry package sized by site count and data points, core driver library and edge runtime, store and forward to cloud and brokers.
Growth
On requestOver Foundation, this tier adds:
- Larger site and data point allowance

What the product covers
The full Litmus Edge 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.

- Edge applications
- Store and forward
- Cloud and broker outputs
People bring Litmus Edge in for a manufacturer with twenty plants and five plc brands that needs one data acquisition standard rather than twenty bespoke integrations, feeding a cloud data warehouse or lakehouse with normalised production data without asking the controls team to write cloud connectors, retrofitting data collection onto old cnc machines and robots where the protocol support is the hard part, not the analytics, adding local buffering and computation at sites with unreliable wan links so cloud outages do not create gaps in production history. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Litmus Edge are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Manufacturing
Too few manufacturing tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Litmus Edge badges page.
Before you pay for Litmus Edge
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 $1500/month and On request, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Litmus Edge against the tools that do have one before committing.
Litmus Edge runs on linux, docker, kubernetes, cloud, on-premise, and is published by Litmus Automation of San Jose, California, United States. The full record is on the Litmus Edge review, and the rest of the category is under best manufacturing tools.
