| Notes | The product is now an agent workspace rather than a Postgres host. Listed because the census named it as a Postgres lead. |

| Free tier | Free trial: 'included usage allowance, up to 10 users, sandbox size up to xl, and priority support'. The size of the allowance and its duration are not stated on the pricing page. unit mixed; metered on wall-clock; a dollar-denominated allowance, amount unpublished |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | unknown: 'Stopped, snapshotted, and otherwise non-running VMs do not accrue compute', and projects can cache reusable environments, but no page read states how long a stopped VM or its cached environment survives |
| Egress | Not published on the pricing page. Tembo Gateway model traffic and cloud VM compute 'draw from the same balance', but no traffic allowance or per-GB egress rate is stated. |
| Identity | email Account signup for the free trial; Pro (USD 60) and Max (USD 200) are paid plans. Whether the trial requires a card, what card types are accepted, and whether any authorisation is held are not stated on the pricing page read. |

'Included monthly allowance expires at the end of each billing cycle and does not roll over. Prepaid balance does not expire.' Overage billing is optional and capped by a user-set maximum. |
| Binding | volume-quota The dollar allowance is what runs out first: the cheapest always-on shape spends USD 77.82 of it a month, so a USD 60 Pro allowance covers about 23 days of a Nano VM and every larger shape less. |
| Interface | rest, cli Agent sessions execute in dedicated ephemeral Linux VMs; the workspace is driven through Tembo's own gateway and model routing rather than a machine you connect to directly. |
| Tooling | Tembo's own workspace. It is a coding-agent product that happens to run a VM, not a VPS: no SSH contract is published on the pricing page. |
| Composes with | A full VM at USD 0.1066 an hour for the smallest shape is USD 77.82 a month, so it is not an answer to the cheap-machine questions. It matters here as the case where a full VM is priced by the running second and the binding cost is the USD 60 a month plan that must sit underneath it. |
| Reliability | No reliability event observed. Each session runs in a dedicated ephemeral VM, so state that is not in a cached project environment does not outlive the session. |
| Notes | Arithmetic: Nano at USD 0.1066 an hour × 730 = USD 77.818 a month, against a USD 60 Pro allowance, so the allowance covers 563 hours. At 10 h a day (300 h) it is USD 31.98. Verified against the component rates: 2 × 0.0403 + 2 × 0.0130 = USD 0.1066 an hour, which matches the size table exactly. Larger shapes: Micro (2/4) USD 0.1326/hr, Medium (4/8) USD 0.2652, Large (8/16) USD 0.5304, XL (16/32) USD 1.0608, XXL (16/64) USD 1.4768, Ultra (32/128) USD 2.9536. Region, egress and stopped-VM retention are unverified. sandboxprices.com could not price this row at all, so the site contributes discovery only. |
| Evidence rung | documented Rates, the size table and the plan floors are quoted from the vendor's own pricing documentation read today. The free-trial amount is explicitly unpublished, so no value is recorded for it. What would raise it: a trial run that reads the granted allowance, and the egress terms. |
