Most developer portals charge per seat, so the bill grows every time another engineer reads your docs. EventCatalog doesn't. Here's what that means as your team grows:
| Team size | Per-seat developer portals | EventCatalog Scale |
|---|---|---|
| 25 engineers | $625–$1,000/month | $449/month |
| 50 engineers | $1,250–$2,000/month | $449/month |
| 100 engineers | $2,500–$4,000/month | $449/month |
Per-seat range based on published and reported list prices ($25–$40 per developer/month) for popular developer portals, July 2026.
Thinking about self-hosting Backstage instead? "Free" typically costs 3+ full-time engineers to build and maintain — around $450K/year in engineering time before your architecture is documented. EventCatalog is maintained for you: Scale is under $15 a day, and Enterprise includes onboarding, training, and support. Already on Backstage? EventCatalog integrates with it.
