Snyk retires Ignite plan, moves Enterprise to credit-based pricing
Snyk removed its $1,260/year Ignite plan entirely and moved Enterprise from flat "Contact Sales" pricing to a credit-based "Snyk Platform Subscription" (1 credit = $1) with a per-capability consumption rate card.

WHY IT MATTERS
Security tooling has largely stayed on flat or per-seat Enterprise pricing; a credit-based consumption model for Snyk's top tier is a meaningful shift toward usage pricing at the high end. Watch whether Snyk extends credit-based pricing down to Team plans next, or whether this stays Enterprise-only.
BY THE NUMBERS
- Ignite plan launched Jan 2, 2026 at $1,260/year; retired after ~8 months
- Only 2 pricing changes in the last 90 days vs. 85 days since the last one
- 6 changes in the last 365 days across 48 tracked comparisons
- Second platform-metric overhaul in 2026, after June's developer→Projects switch
THEIR RATIONALE
Ignite's retirement caps an eight-month decline: launched Jan 2 at $1,260/developer/year, it had its developer caps and DAST targets halved in February before being dropped outright now. Snyk moves deliberately — only 2 changes in the last 90 days against a roughly 90-day average gap — so this pairs two structural decisions (killing a struggling plan, restructuring Enterprise) into one release rather than spreading them out.
THE SIGNAL
This is Snyk's second platform-metric overhaul of 2026, following June's switch from developers to Projects as the core capacity metric, and its first move into credit-based Enterprise pricing. Usage-based repricing is a live pattern across the index this same week, but Snyk's version replaces custom-quote Enterprise deals rather than a self-serve tier — a bigger structural bet than most peers making similar moves.
IN CONTEXT
Ignite's death comes eight months after its Jan 2 launch at $1,260/developer/year — the plan already had its developer caps and DAST targets halved in February, and Snyk has now retired it outright. This is Snyk's second platform-metric overhaul of 2026, following June's switch from developers to Projects as the core capacity metric, and its first move into credit-based Enterprise pricing. Usage-based repricing is a live pattern across the index — including moves this same week from Captions and Notion — but Snyk's version replaces custom-quote Enterprise deals rather than a self-serve tier, a bigger structural bet than most peers are making.
