Amazon Redshift ML 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free Trial | Free | 2 | Entry tier |
| On-Demand | $0.25/hour | 2 | +$0.25/hour, 2 more features |
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 Amazon Redshift ML 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.

- Algorithm selection
- Cost ceiling controls
- Existing warehouse security
- Batch and interactive scoring
People bring Amazon Redshift ML in for adding a churn or propensity score to an existing dashboard where the data is already in redshift and nobody needs a bespoke model, letting an analytics team test whether a predictive column has any business value before asking for data science headcount, scoring rows inside a sql pipeline where moving data out to a separate service would add fragility for little benefit, organisations committed to aws whose main constraint is a data science backlog rather than modelling sophistication. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Amazon Redshift ML are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Machine Learning
Too few machine learning 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.
| Tool | Entry price | Model | Rated | Head to head |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Amazon Redshift ML (this page) | Free | usage-based | - | |
| ClearML | Free | Open-source self-hosted, with paid hosted and enterprise tiers | - | vs Amazon Redshift ML |
| Langwatch | Free, then €29/month | Tiered subscription with usage-based overage charges | - | vs Amazon Redshift ML |
| Haystack | Free | Open-source with optional paid enterprise support | - | vs Amazon Redshift ML |
| Semantic Kernel | Free | Open source, no pricing | - | vs Amazon Redshift ML |
| Fal AI | $1.89/hour | usage-based | - | vs Amazon Redshift ML |
| H2O.ai | Free | freemium | - | vs Amazon Redshift ML |
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 Amazon Redshift ML badges page.
Before you pay for Amazon Redshift ML
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: 2 tiers between Free and $0.25/hour, 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.
Amazon Redshift ML runs on web, and is published by Amazon Web Services of Seattle, Washington. The full record is on the Amazon Redshift ML review, and the rest of the category is under best machine learning tools.

In practice it is brought in for adding a churn or propensity score to an existing dashboard where the data is already in redshift and nobody needs a bespoke model, letting an analytics team test whether a predictive column has any business value before asking for data science headcount, scoring rows inside a sql pipeline where moving data out to a separate service would add fragility for little benefit.
