Unified Pricing: Licensing plan framework

Note:

Feature availability depends on the cloud platform that you use. For details, refer to the Feature availability page.

The licensing information on this page applies to you if you are on Unified Pricing.

If you are on Flex, refer to Flex licensing plan framework.

You can use UiPath with a licensing plan to match your needs and budget.

Plan overview

The following sections provide a high-level description of the licensing plans available in the Unified Pricing model.

Free

The Free plan provides the following benefits:

  • You can use basic development and attended automation capabilities.
  • You can use the Free plan for commercial purposes, but direct sign-up is not available. The Free plan becomes accessible only when your current trial or paid licensing plan expires and your account is downgraded.
    Important:

    When your trial or paid licensing plan expires, you are automatically downgraded to the Free licensing plan. This transition causes you to lose access to the special benefits unique to the trial or paid licensing plans. For a comprehensive understanding, refer to the following resources:

    • License expiration and downgrade for details on the general changes that occur in the event of a license expiration and downgrade.
    • Plan breakdown for a detailed comparison between the benefits offered with the Free plan and those provided with the trial or paid plans at platform level.
    • Product-specific licensing documentation for a detailed comparison between the entitlements offered with the Free plan and those provided with the trial or paid plans. For example, if you want to understand what Orchestrator functionalities you lose access to in the event of a license expiration, refer to the Orchestrator user guide.

Basic Trial
