LaunchDarkly vs Convert Experiences

Free tier available

From $299 per month (Growth, paid annually, 100k tested users; $399 monthly)

LaunchDarkly has dropped per-seat pricing: Developer is free with unlimited seats, and Foundation is pay-as-you-go on service connections and client-side monthly active users with no platform or seat fee. High-traffic consumer products still get expensive, but now through MAU rather than seats. Enterprise is quote-based.

Priced only on tested traffic — unlimited experiments, domains and users at every tier. Growth is $299/month paid annually ($399 monthly) for 100k tested users; Pro starts around $420/month annually.

Developer plan is free forever with unlimited seats.

15-day trial.

• Extremely reliable flag delivery with offline fallbacks — this is infrastructure you can trust in the request path.
• Best-in-class governance: approval workflows, audit logs, role-based access.
• Code references and stale-flag detection actually help you remove dead flags.

• Unlimited experiments and seats, so nobody rations testing to save licence cost.
• Serious privacy posture with EU hosting and no data resale.
• Transparent, published pricing.

• Still the expensive option once client-side MAU volume is real, even after the move off per-seat pricing.
• Experimentation is competent but less sophisticated than dedicated statistics platforms.
• Usage-based billing on service connections and MAU is harder to forecast than a seat count.

• Client-side only — no server-side experimentation.
• No feature-flag capability.
• Smaller vendor with a modest ecosystem.

Engineering organisations where flags are critical infrastructure and governance is required.

Mid-sized e-commerce teams that want unlimited client-side testing with clean privacy handling.
