- What's an "active committer"?
- Any GitHub user who has pushed at least one commit to a Parry-monitored private repo in the last 90 days. Bots and merge-commit-only authors don't count. The 90-day window means seasonal contractors and bursty contributors don't permanently inflate your bill.
- Do you charge per engine or per scope?
- No. Every scope and every engine is included on every paid plan. The work happens in reconciliation — turning a dozen tools' worth of overlapping output into one feed — not in feature gating.
- What if my repo-to-committer ratio is unusual?
- Doesn't matter. Monorepo shops with one mega-repo and microservice shops with 200 small ones pay the same per-committer rate. Engine count, scan count, and repo count never affect the bill.
- Can I try Team before paying?
- Yes. Install the GitHub App and Team unlocks for 14 days, full-feature, no card up front. After day 14 the install drops to read-only — historical scans stay visible, new scans pause — until a plan is selected. No surprise charges, no expired-trial dark patterns.
- What is AI Review and why is it gated?
- AI Review is a reasoning layer that finds logic bugs deterministic scanners can't — auth bypasses, IDOR, unsafe data flow, cryptographic misuse. It ships on Team but stays off until an org owner opts in. Two reasons: regulatory honesty (some teams can't send code to a third-party reasoning engine without sign-off) and cost predictability (it runs against a monthly token quota). Detected secrets and .env files are stripped before transmission.
- Why per-committer instead of per-repo?
- Because every other scanner in the market — Snyk, Semgrep, GitGuardian, GitHub Advanced Security — bills per developer or per committer, and buyers convert every quote to $/dev anyway. Per-repo pricing penalizes microservice architectures and rewards monorepos for arbitrary reasons. Per-committer matches actual blast radius: more people pushing code means more findings to triage.
- How do I cancel?
- Uninstall the GitHub App. Billing stops at the end of the current period. Your data is purged within 30 days.
