GitClear's Starter Plan offers several permanently free features to help open source developers, academics and other small-team use cases that aren't a commercial entity with more than three repos to be measured.
The Free Starter Plan comes fully loaded with many of GitClear's signature features:
Snap Changelogs. An AI-powered tool to help spotlight developer progress for customers, followers, and managers
Commit Activity Browser. A visual look at what has been changing lately, optional integrated with Jira or GitHub Issues
Directory Browser. Where are time and energy focused in this project lately? Which files seem to exhibit signs of coupling (a code quality smell)?
DORA Stats. Measure release frequency, critical defect prevalence and time to repair critical issues.
Full REST API Access. Record dev events or programatically retrieve data about what's changing on your team.
Any academic use, open source project, or GitHub Sponsors developer is welcome to use GitClear's Starter Plan indefinitely. We ask that for-profit commercial entities purchase a Pro subscription.
The Starter Plan does not include features that are computationally or resource-expensive for GitClear to process, such as Commit Groups, Developer Satisfaction Surveys, and AI-Powered pull requests.
Starter Plan subscribers are also limited in how much data will be stored in the GitClear database:
Up to three repos imported
Up to three Team Goals
Up to 2,000 commits processed
Up to 50 pull requests processed
Data processed within 1-2 business days
Data analysis window: 6 months
When a plan exceeds these limits, the oldest processed work will be automatically truncated.
Access to the Starter Plan is available through the standard GitClear Subscriptions page (log in, visit "Settings" and "Subscription") or you can sign up for Starter through the standard sign up page.
