Which Zed plan is right for me?

Our Personal plan is for users who want a best-in-class code editor without AI capabilities, or for users who prefer to use their own keys/external agents. Our Pro plan comes with Zed hosted models out of the box. Our Enterprise plan is for larger teams with custom needs.

How does the free trial work?

We offer a two week free trial of our Pro plan which comes with $20 of token credits and unlimited accepted edit predictions. To start your trial, visit your Account page and make sure you're logged in. The trial ends once you've used up your prompts or the two weeks pass–whatever comes first.

What is a token?

A token is a unit of text processed by an LLM (roughly 3–4 characters of English text). With token-based billing, you’re only charged for the text your prompts and responses actually consume. Costs vary by model, but Zed Pro bills at API list price +10% for hosted usage. See the full list of models and prices here.

What happens if I exceed Pro's $5 token credits?

Once you use up your included monthly credits, you’ll be billed for additional token usage at API list price +10%. We’ll charge either at the end of the month or for every additional $10 incurred, whichever comes first. You can also set a spending cap to manage costs.

I don't want to pay for Zed, can I use my own keys?

Yes you can! We currently support Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic, GitHub Copilot, Deepseek, Google AI, LM Studio, Mistral, Ollama, OpenAI, OpenRouter, Vercel, and more.

Can I use Zed without the AI features?

Yes! Zed is first and foremost a code editor with blazing-fast performance, true multiplayer collaboration, and a focus on developer productivity. You can disable all AI features if you'd like to.
