Seer bills your team. We bill your usage.
How much does Sentry Seer cost?
Sentry Seer costs $40 per active contributor per month, on top of your Sentry plan. Sentry defines an active contributor as any user who makes 2 or more pull requests to a seer-enabled repository. all repository members except github bots marked [bot] are counted. The bill is therefore a function of how many people commit to the repository, not of how many errors the agent fixes.
The previous model ($20 per month per subscription plus $25 of Seer event credits) stopped being offered as an add-on in January 2026. Source: Sentry pricing docs, read July 2026.
What that means per team size
| Active contributors | Seer, per month | Cost of fixing nothing |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | $120 | $120 |
| 8 | $320 | $320 |
| 20 | $800 | $800 |
| 50 | $2000 | $2000 |
The third column is the point. Seer's seat fee grows with every engineer who commits, whether or not the agent ran. Parsemend's subscription is flat: credits are spent by fix runs, not by headcount, and a quiet month needs no top-up.
| Capability | Parsemend | Sentry Seer |
|---|---|---|
| What you pay for | ||
| Priced on | Flat plan, AI credits included | $40 / active contributor / mo |
| Bill grows with team size | No (grows only if you top up credits) | Yes (every contributor counts) |
| AI usage included in the base price | Yes (a monthly credit allowance) | No (Seer is a separate add-on) |
| Bring your own API key instead | Yes (three of the four modes; credits untouched) | Not documented |

| Choose the model | Yes | Not documented |
| Bring your own API key | Yes | Not documented |
| Run it entirely on your own hardware | Yes (CLI, or your own agent, with Ollama) | No (analysis runs in Sentry's cloud) |
| Works without repository access | Yes (in three of the four modes) | No (GitHub or GitLab app required) |
Priced by the work, not the roster
Seer's unit is a person; Parsemend's is the work. Every paid plan includes a monthly allowance of AI credits, top-ups exist for the months the agent works harder, and three of the four fix modes take your own API key so the model bill goes to your provider instead. Either way, adding an engineer to the repository does not change the price.
todo: Parsemend's own tier prices are not final, so this page deliberately compares the shape of the two bills rather than printing a head-to-head total we cannot stand behind yet.
A flat seat price is easy to forecast, and Seer's is bundled into a platform your team probably already runs. A credit allowance asks you to think about usage at least once. If your team is three people and nobody wants to do that, Seer at $120 a month is a perfectly sensible purchase.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Sentry Seer cost?
As of July 2026, Seer costs $40 per active contributor per month, added to your existing Sentry subscription. An active contributor is any user who makes two or more pull requests to a Seer-enabled repository; every repository member except GitHub bots is counted. The earlier model, $20 per month plus $25 of event credits, stopped being offered in January 2026.
Is Seer priced per fix?
No. Seer is priced per active contributor per month, so the bill tracks the size of your team rather than how many issues you actually fix. A ten-person team pays $400 a month whether the agent opens one pull request or a hundred.
Can I use my own model or API key with Seer?
Sentry does not document a way to choose the model or supply your own API key. Parsemend supports Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini and self-hosted Ollama, and in three of its four modes the inference is billed to your provider account rather than to Parsemend.
Does Seer run on my infrastructure?
No. Seer analyses issues in Sentry's cloud. The local-development integration announced in January 2026 is an MCP server: telemetry still flows to Sentry, where the analysis happens. Parsemend's CLI mode runs the entire fix loop on your machine.
