LocalStack Plans

This document outlines the features, emulated AWS services, and enhancements included in each LocalStack for AWS plan. It also clarifies how licensing works across workspaces and users.

As of March 23rd, 2026, LocalStack for AWS offers the following subscriptions that provide licenses for commercial use::

  • Base
  • Ultimate
  • Enterprise

Customers looking to purchase LocalStack for use primarily in automated environments or through shared infrastructure, such as an internal developer platform are encouraged to reach out to our sales team. For more information, please refer to our fair use policy.

We provide the following subscription for non-commercial use:

  • Hobby

We offer special subscriptions for select segments:

If you purchased a LocalStack license before May 8, 2025, click here to learn about your available features and legacy entitlements.

Each workspace can only be assigned a single pricing plan. You cannot mix and match (e.g., Base and Ultimate) within the same workspace.

Licenses must be assigned to individual users. This generates an authentication token that enables access to the emulator and any enhancements included in the plan.

Not sure which plan fits your use case? Explore our pricing page.

For unique licensing needs across teams or environments, please contact Sales.

All paid plans include a fixed allocation of:

  • Cloud Sandbox (Ephemeral Instance) minutes (monthly pool)
  • State Management (Cloud Pod) storage (per contract, shared across all users)

The table below shows which AWS services are available in each pricing plan. It does not indicate the level of API coverage or feature availability.

To learn more about how a service behaves in LocalStack, refer to that individual service page or contact Support.
