# Perch vs MergeSafe pricing

Budget 19¢/review, Strong 45¢ and Ultra 149¢. No seat fees; $10 free credit.

## What does the review bill depend on?

Budget 19¢/review, Strong 45¢ and Ultra 149¢. No seat fees; $10 free credit. Budget usage rate; security expert adds 45¢ and logic expert 75¢. Over 2,000 changed lines costs 1.5×. Budget costs less than Perch's mid-sized 50¢ estimate; compare scope and rules. [MergeSafe price source](https://mergesafe.ai/).

Illustrative USD workload: 100 mid-sized PRs per month, reviewed once each, before tax. Subscription floors and usage estimates measure different coverage.

| Developers | Perch | MergeSafe |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 3 | About $50/month estimated usage | $19.00/month illustrative review usage |
| 10 | About $50/month estimated usage | $19.00/month illustrative review usage |

Perch uses the rounded estimate of about 50¢ per mid-sized PR, approximately 150 methods read at the captured September–October 2026 density of 34 questions per method. At 10¢ per 1,000 fresh checks the unrounded example is 51¢ per PR. Scope, cache hits and repeated reviews change usage. A vendor subscription floor excludes any additional charges and does not guarantee that every review is included. Credit packs, diff kilobytes and reviewed files cannot be converted into PR totals without their usage assumptions.
