What is included with the Tidewave Toolbar and IDE plans?
Tidewave Toolbar lets you point at elements in your app, build visual prompts, automate the
browser, and give your coding agent framework-aware runtime context. Tidewave IDE includes
Toolbar and adds a complete browser-based development environment with coding agents, Git and
pull request workflows, code review, task boards, and design tools.
How is Tidewave different from other browser tools?
Tidewave uses your existing browser and sessions, automatically recognizes error pages and
provides stacktraces, logs, and framework metadata to your agent. Its vision mode can also
record videos with captions and narration.
How is Tidewave different from other coding agents?
Tidewave operates directly within your browser, maintaining shared context between you,
the agent, and your app. It can see your web pages, map UI elements to their source code,
query your database, and test changes in real time. It includes tools for designing,
specification, and reviewing code.
Do you offer a free plan?
Yes, all Tidewave features can be used for free, with monthly limits of 20 IDE messages, 10 Toolbar
prompts, and 10 agent connections. No credit card is required.
What happens after I reach a free limit?
That feature pauses until its monthly allowance resets. Your other free allowances remain
available. You can subscribe to the relevant paid plan at any time for unlimited use.
Can I switch between Toolbar and IDE plans?
Yes. Your new plan takes effect immediately. If you switch between monthly plans, the prorated
difference is settled on your next invoice. Switching between annual plans or changing the
billing interval settles the prorated difference immediately. Any remaining credit is added
to your account balance.
What happens if I cancel my annual plan?
Your subscription will not renew, and you keep access until the end of the current annual
billing period.
How does team billing work?
Team subscriptions use the same per-user pricing as personal subscriptions. Choose Toolbar or
IDE for your team, then invite teammates, manage seats, and centralize billing under one
account. Team accounts stay separate from personal accounts. When creating a team, you can
convert your personal account to a Team account.
What happens when I add or remove team members?
Changes take effect immediately: added members get access, and removed members lose it.
Billing adjustments are prorated and applied at your next renewal. Added members create a
charge, while removed members create a credit. If you cancel before renewal, deferred credits
are not refunded.
Do you offer enterprise plans?
We are working on enterprise plans and would love your feedback on how to shape them around
your needs.
Please send us an email.
What is your data policy?
We log basic request metadata such as timestamps, features or models used, and token counts.
Prompts and messages are not logged unless you explicitly opt in, and we don't receive,
process, or store tool call results. The underlying coding agent may store data separately
under your agreement with them. See our
Terms of Service
and
Privacy Policy.
What are the security risks of running Tidewave?
Tidewave is a development tool that can run code on your machine, so you must approve and
review its tool calls just like those made by any coding agent. Please read our
security guidelines
, which cover common concerns and isolation techniques such as Docker. Tidewave should
not run in production.
Is Tidewave open source?
The packages for each supported language are open source. They include the Tidewave MCP
server, which can be used from most coding agents and editors without a Tidewave subscription.
The Tidewave Desktop application is also open source.
