Purpose
A visual platform for AI apps, agents, workflows, and knowledge-based chat, with cloud and self-hosted options.
Key features
- Build workflow, chatflow, and agent applications
- Use your own data with knowledge retrieval
- Publish web apps or integrate through APIs
Suggested starting workflow
- Define one input, expected output, and any reference material
- Choose cloud or self-hosting and build a minimal app
- Check normal inputs, missing information, failure paths, and separate model costs
These are editorial starting suggestions based on the product purpose, not a workflow tested by this site.
Before you use it
- Not tested hands-on here; feature descriptions come from official material.
- Selected plan rates and conditions are listed below. Currency, regions, eligibility, task costs and commercial scope still include unknowns; a visible entry point does not establish account access.
- Check facts, asset rights, and actual results before publishing or executing generated work.
Pricing & plans
Selected plan facts only, not a complete plan review or a task test. Check the source date and confirm current terms with the provider. Unverified conditions remain unknown.
Complete review Every listed plan of this tool has a complete review. Complete review: price, currency, billing period, platforms, languages, regions, watermark, commercial use and offline use each have a source or a stated reason they could not be confirmed. It is not a task test and does not guarantee current prices.

- The workspace subscription is free, but the Billing documentation identifies the Sandbox-level allowance as 200 one-time credits with no monthly refill.
- Each model call consumes credits at a model-specific rate. One workflow can make several calls, so 200 credits do not establish 200 completed tasks.
- After the allowance runs out, own model-provider API keys can be configured and bill to the provider account. Ongoing free task execution, regions and task quality are unverified.

Fields that could not be confirmed, and why
- Price: Community is a free software licence; server and model costs of self-hosting are not quoted, so there is no single price and a free licence does not mean zero total cost.
- Currency: No subscription quote, so no currency.
- Billing period: Self-hosted software has no subscription billing period.
- Web: Self-hosted software; the web UI depends on deployment and the pricing page does not state it per plan.
- Desktop: The official pages read do not state desktop access for this plan.
- Mobile: The official pages read do not state mobile access for this plan.
- API access: The official pages read do not state API access for this plan.
- Chinese support: The official pages read do not state Chinese support for this plan.
- English support: The official pages read do not state English support for this plan.
- Mainland China availability: The official pages read do not state mainland China availability for this plan.
- Availability outside China: The official pages read do not state availability outside China for this plan.
- Fully watermark-free: The official pages read do not state fully watermark-free output for this plan.
- Commercial rights: The pricing page positions Community for open-source enthusiasts, individual developers and non-commercial projects, under the Dify open-source licence; the licence's additional terms and output rights were not analysed in this review.
- Offline use: The self-hosting docs do not state whether it runs without internet access.
- The repository LICENSE adds conditions to Apache 2.0. Commercial use is allowed, including application backends and enterprise development platforms, but multi-tenant operation (one workspace per tenant) requires written commercial authorization.
- When using the Dify frontend, its Logo and copyright must not be removed or modified. This Logo condition does not apply to uses without its frontend. Software permission does not establish generated-content commercial rights or watermark-free output.
- Deployment is documented on Docker-capable laptops, local servers or cloud VMs. Infrastructure, external models, maintenance and total task costs remain unknown. No software was installed or tested.
- The Enterprise EULA explicitly covers commercial Enterprise software and was not applied to Community here.
