Run AI On Your Own Hardware

Point AidaIDE at Ollama on this machine — or any box you can SSH into, a GPU workstation or a Jetson. Scan, pull and manage models from inside the IDE, then force every agent run through your hardware. No cloud, no API key, nothing leaving your network.

OllamaRemote ModelsInstall over SSHNo API key

Hardware Lab

Test device code before it touches a device: timeline scenarios with assertions, pass/fail in milliseconds on a virtual board, then the same scenario run on the real device over SSH and diffed against the simulation. 33 boards — Jetson, Arduino, and ESP32 families — with real pin maps.

Virtual boardScenario builderRun on Device33 boards

Rogue Device Hunt

Port scanners only find devices that answer. AidaIDE reads ARP and switch MAC tables off your switches and joins them, so an unknown device resolves to a named switch and physical port — somewhere you can walk to.

5-Year Price Lock

Buy today and your renewal price is locked for 5 full years — even if list price goes up later. No long-term contract; cancel anytime.

Pricing FAQ

The questions we get asked most about what costs money and what doesn't.

Is AidaIDE free?

Yes — AidaIDE is free forever, with no license key, no trial clock, and no sign-up required to download. The free tier is the complete SSH/SFTP workspace: the full IDE with 19+ languages, tabbed terminals, the dual-pane file browser, the encrypted credential vault, the LCOT command library, Fleet Manager with unlimited devices, and OTA updates. Nothing in that list is time-limited or seat-limited.

How much does AidaIDE cost?

The core workspace costs $0. Pro is $19/month, or $190/year (a 17% saving). Teams Pro is $70/month, or $700/year, and covers 5 Pro seats. Enterprise is custom-priced with volume and multi-year options. Annual plans carry a 5-year price lock, so your renewal price stays fixed even if list prices rise.

What's the difference between Free and Pro?

Free gives you the entire SSH, SFTP, terminal, editor, and fleet toolset. Pro adds the AI layer and the heavier hardware tooling on top: the AI Hierarchy Builder and Composer, the AI Code Assistant and Copilot, AI multi-agent workflows, advanced network scans, the ONVIF/NVR Camera Manager, LCoT Templates, and priority support. Pro is an addition to Free, not an unlock of it — no free feature moves behind the paywall.

What happens if my Pro licence expires?

You fall back to the Free tier — never a lockout. Your saved devices, credentials, and settings carry over untouched; only the Pro-only features stop being available. You can install free today and add a Pro key at any point without reconfiguring anything.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. The free tier needs no card and no licence key — download and run. A card is only involved if you choose to buy Pro or Teams Pro.

Does Teams Pro cost more per person?

No — it's cheaper. Teams Pro is $70/month for 5 seats, which is $14 per user per month against $19 for an individual Pro licence, and it adds shared dashboards, team management, API access, and dedicated support.
