Grengin is open source and self-host-first. Run it free from source, or launch it free from AWS or Azure, with the full product and no feature gates. No per-seat pricing, and no vendor in your data path when you self-host. Would rather not run it yourself? We can host it for you.
How to run
Three ways to run Grengin
Same software every way. You choose how involved we are, which by default is not at all.
Cloud marketplace image
Free Pay only cloud compute costs
Launch the same software directly into your own AWS account with a single click. No Grengin fees, no metering, instant setup. Azure Marketplace launches 22nd July 2026.
Launch on AWSGrengin Cloud
Optional, for teams that would rather not run infrastructure. We host and operate the same software for you, with your own API keys and your choice of region. Get in touch and we will help you get set up.
Talk to us Included
Everything's included. Governance isn't a paywall.
There's no "enterprise tier." Every deployment, free or managed, ships with the full feature set:
- Multi-model workspace across OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, Groq, and Cerebras
- Real-time cost tracking, with budgets per user, department, and project
- Admin dashboard and user management
- Single sign-on with your own identity provider
- Department- and project-level policies
- PII detection
- Full audit trails
The rule we hold ourselves to: free is everything you need to run a governed AI workspace. Paid is only ever services and new capabilities, never the core.
Managed hosting
Prefer not to run it yourself?
Grengin Cloud is the optional managed way to run Grengin: the same software and the same full feature set, operated by us so you never touch a server. You keep your own API keys, and you choose your region at setup (EU, US, or India, with more on request), so data residency is a checkbox rather than a project.
Your own API keys remain the default: model traffic is billed by your providers at their published rates, with no markup.
Ready to get started? Tell us about your team and we'll help you choose the right setup and get your instance deployed.
Model keys
Your model usage, your accounts
Grengin connects to model providers using your own API keys. You pay each provider directly for what you use. Grengin adds no markup and doesn't resell tokens. Connect any or all of:
- OpenAI
- Anthropic (Claude)
- Google Gemini
- Mistral
- Groq
- Cerebras
One governance, cost-tracking, and policy layer across all of them.
Support
Community & Documentation
Grengin is free and supported by the community, through the forum and the documentation, for every way you run it.
Partners
Run Grengin for your clients
MSPs, consultancies, and platforms can deploy, host, resell, or embed Grengin under the partner program. Deploying inside a client's own tenant is free; hosting Grengin for third parties or white-labeling it needs a partner agreement, and that is the point: your paid offering cannot be undercut by a free copy.
Your data
Your data stays yours
With your own API keys, every request goes straight from your instance to the model provider. When you self-host, from source or from the marketplace image, Grengin is never in the data path and never sees your prompts, completions, or logs. The software is open source and runs on your own infrastructure, yours to audit. Grengin Cloud is the one exception, stated plainly: we operate the serving infrastructure there, so traffic flows through systems we run. Optional credits are labeled in the app whenever they are in use.
FAQ
Pricing questions
Is Grengin really free?
Yes. Self-hosting from source is free, and the AWS and Azure marketplace images are free too. You pay only your own cloud compute and your model providers. There is no per-seat pricing and no paid feature tier.
Do you charge per user or per seat?
No, never. Self-hosting has no Grengin charges at all, and there are no per-seat fees anywhere. Add your whole team at no extra cost.
Who pays for the AI model usage?
You do, directly to each model provider, on your own API keys. Grengin does not mark up or resell model usage.
Can Grengin see our data?
When you self-host, from source or the marketplace image, no: requests go directly from your instance to the provider. Managed hosting is the one exception, where we operate the infrastructure and traffic flows through systems we run; we say that plainly rather than hiding it.
Is there a hosted or managed version?
Yes. Managed hosting is available for teams that would rather not run infrastructure, with your own API keys and your choice of region including the EU and India. Contact us to discuss your needs and get started.
Can we host or resell Grengin for our clients?
Deploying and operating Grengin inside a client's own tenant is free under the standard license. Hosting Grengin for third parties, reselling it, or white-labeling it requires a partner agreement: see the partner program or write to partners@grengin.com.
Have questions about the license itself? See the Licensing page.
