Rocket.new Pricing Plans

Rocket's Pricing Plans are structured in a very logical and easy-to-understand way. At the same time, there is an underlying logic to how Rocket has structured their pricing. This is most clearly seen when using the product to create content (i.e., tokens) and how quickly you want to create that content (i.e., importing Figma screens). Rocket uses Monthly Creative Capacity (tokens, Figma Screen Imports and Speed of Content Creation) to determine what level of pricing you should be on. The starter plan allows you to get familiar with the Rocket Platform and how the AI works within your workflow without any pressure. Each additional level builds upon this concept by increasing the amount you can create before running out of either space or slowing down your use.

The personal plan is intended for the solo builder who wants to produce consistent, predictable results each month. The rocket plan takes that idea and applies it to a more production-based approach that will give you the space needed to complete client work, build SaaS MVPs, etc. while also allowing for weekly experimentation. The booster plan is the high-volume version, targeted at teams and agencies that live inside the tool and need the room to rebuild, iterate and experiment without limitations.

We feel that the structure of the plans makes sense, because they mirror how people really build software. We normally start off slow, then increase as we solidify our ideas. We would normally recommend that you choose your Rocket Plan based on how regularly you plan on building, versus how much you are paying, since the biggest differences between each plan are how fast and free you can be, versus feature set.

Ultimately, Rocket users who get the most value tend to be those who have both the desire to develop, and the need to do so quickly, while having the ability to scale their development with confidence. On one hand, there are the solo-founders or small teams that are developing MVP's (Minimum Viable Products), or internal tools. These groups want to bypass the "front-end + back-end + deploy" loop when they are developing products, and therefore, find Rocket's ability to create a full-stack application from a single prompt, truly liberating. On the other hand, there are agencies and enterprise squads , including companies such as Meta, PayPal, KPMG, and PWC , which can also use Rocket as a serious tool for creating applications that go beyond simple "toy-applications."

In short, Rocket will shine for any organization that is developing multiple flows; managing complex state management; user roles; backend API integration; and deployment , Rocket will deliver this in terms of speed. However, the sweet-spot for Rocket is an organization that has moved beyond prototype development and wants to move rapidly toward production. Overall, we recommend Rocket for organizations that want to build clean architectures from the start, versus hacking something together. While, on the flip side, if you are a small startup that is wanting to remain lean, Rocket provides an affordable means to jump into full-stack development, without having to commit large development resources up front.

Really, whether Rocket is cost-effective depends upon what you're comparing Rocket to. If the alternative to Rocket is employing additional developers, lengthening a contract with an agency, or expending weeks writing boiler-plate code manually, then, yes, we believe Rocket may offer a very good value proposition. The main benefit of using Rocket is that it will produce complete stacks of projects, connect the front-end and back-end of those projects, wire up APIs and facilitate rapid iteration; and, for small teams that would need to accomplish these tasks themselves, this can create a huge amount of value from the perspective of time alone.

The value proposition becomes much more interesting when you consider early-stage companies or solo-founders. Rather than hiring too many engineers before you have a viable product, you can use Rocket to rapidly develop and test your concepts, build minimum viable products (MVPs), refine workflows and only hire additional engineering resources when the product truly starts to gain traction. We generally encourage companies to view the Rocket subscription as a multiplier on your existing skills rather than simply a software-as-a-service (SaaS) cost.

If you or someone on your team are comfortable reviewing and modifying the code generated by Rocket, it provides a multiplier effect on your productivity. Companies that want to maximize their ability to rapidly iterate, learn quickly, and keep costs associated with employee head-count down during the initial stages of development, we'd suggest that Rocket is both a cost-effective option, but also a strategic one.

The choice of which Rocket plan most users select typically depends upon their development methodology (how they develop) as opposed to how much money they are willing to commit to. As we have observed from numerous developer teams and individual developers, Rocket plans appear to offer a "sweet spot." Rocket provides sufficient monthly tokens and Figma screens in order to allow users to perform real work, as opposed to simply performing rapid testing/experiments.

Users who typically create a new version of a product on a weekly basis and/or manage multiple feature sets frequently utilize Rocket plans, as it affords them "breathing room" between the Rocket plan and the Team plan without an obligation to invest in the more expensive Team plan. Rocket plans appear to represent the point in time that Rocket moves from a "nice helper" to an essential component of the user's workflow.

Booster plans appeal to agencies, freelance developers with multiple clients and companies with a need to ship quickly. This represents the level of productivity/development activity necessary for a user to realize that they are consistently generating new screens, updating structure and building alternate versions of their product. We feel that this transition will occur organically as the user's workload increases.

There remains a role for the Personal plan for makers developing a singular project with a slow(er) development pace. However, if we were to generalize, we would assert that approximately two-thirds of the user base selects the Rocket plan for their development needs. It is the plan that we typically recommend as it seems to provide the appropriate balance of capability without providing too many capabilities.

To get the most value from Rocket, it helps to think less in “features” and more in “how does this actually support the way we build every week.”

1. Use the 30% promo code: Apply the 30% Rocket discount from our marketplace at checkout on any monthly or annual plan so you start saving from day one, especially if you’re leaning toward a higher plan like Rocket or Booster where the savings add up fast

1. Think yearly if you can: If annual billing at a reduced rate of 20% fits your finances, combining it with the 30% discount often saves the equivalent of several months of usage, which is ideal if you already know you’ll build throughout the year.

1. Match the plan to your real usage: If you’re consistently using only half your monthly credits, drop to a cheaper pricing plan rather than staying on a bigger one. Many founders move from Booster back to Rocket during quieter quarters.

1. Keep your setup lean: Limit extra extensions or overlapping services, like using Rocket’s own backend generation instead of paying for a separate scaffolding tool you barely touch.

In the end, Rocket delivers the most value when your plan matches your actual development pace, not the pace you wish you had.

When you’re planning how hard to lean on Rocket each month, it’s normal to worry about “wasted” credits. The good news is that on the paid plans, Rocket is pretty friendly on that front.

1. Yes, credits rollover on paid plans: On Personal, Rocket, and Booster plans, any unused credits roll into the next month instead of disappearing at the end of the billing cycle.

1. It works like a running balance, not a hard reset: Think of it as a growing pool: you top it up every month, and whatever you didn’t use simply stacks on top. That’s especially handy if your workload is a bit “lumpy” with quiet weeks and intense sprints.

1. Great for project-based or seasonal teams: We think this rollover model is ideal if your usage spikes around launches, client deadlines, or fundraising moments. You can let credits accumulate and then burn through them when things get busy.

1. What about the free plan?: The Starter experience is more of a one-off credit bundle, so rollover is not really the point there.

In our opinion, this rollover system makes Rocket much easier to justify, because you’re not punished for having a lighter month.
