Pre-engagement triage.
Before the migration, SOW, or audit.
Ghost Architect triages any codebase, categorizes risk, prioritizes findings, and gives your team a map of where to start. Any codebase. Any language. Any platform.
Ghost Architect™ Local 7.4.42 is the current release. Your model, your hardware, zero egress. One monthly licence, no per-token bill. See Ghost Architect™ Local →
Version 8 is in early access beta: ask for the Ghost Architect™ Local 8 beta →
Monthly licence.
Your model, your network, no per-token bill.
From $80 a month for one seat to $2,000 a month for the enterprise, installed on machines you own. A bad answer costs a re-run, not an invoice. Convert during the trial and the first month is half price. What Local is.
No card, no account; the trial starts inside the product on your own machine.

Prices in USD. Subscriptions renew monthly. Evaluating? Your first month is half price: choose Convert Now inside Ghost Architect™ Local, or enter the code from your evaluation emails at checkout, before your evaluation ends.
Free for one person.
Every mode, your own Anthropic key.
Ghost Open™ is the free single-user CLI on npm. Every mode runs unlimited on your own Anthropic API key, so the only cost is the model usage you already control. No license key, no trial clock, no quotas.

One person, one install, every single-user mode. Install it, add your Anthropic API key, and scan.

- Reports are saved on your machine only
- Free production use by one person under the Business Source License 1.1 Additional Use Grant
Ghost Open™ is free for one person. For deeper scans, teams and your own AI model on your own hardware: Ghost Architect™ Local 8 (early access beta).
Ghost Architect™ Local runs on hardware you own against your own model server. No API key, no cloud call. From the Agency tier up, zero-egress mode refuses any endpoint that would send source code off the machine, at the code level, with the inventory that proves it.
There is no Anthropic call to make. The model is yours: Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio, Jan.ai or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. There is no third-party retention policy to take on trust, because there is no third party.
Start with the evaluation trial; it starts inside the product on first use and the product tells you the day it ends. Convert during it and your first month is half price. Monthly licence, no per-token bill. Enterprise includes a formal MSA.
Buy a licence and your key and download link arrive by email the moment you pay. For the evaluation trial, request the download and EJ replies with the tarball, or with access to the delivery repository on GitHub, usually the same day. Every release has a published SHA-256 to check before you unpack it.
Ghost Open™ runs on your machine. Your source code goes from your machine to Anthropic's API with your own key and is never uploaded to our servers. BYOK: your Anthropic API key, your pipeline.
Anthropic deletes API inputs and outputs within 7 days per their data retention policy. We have no access to that data.
Ghost Open™ is source-available under the Business Source License 1.1. Its Additional Use Grant lets one person use it in production free of charge, for their own work or their employer's or clients' work. No account, no license key, no activation.
What is Ghost Architect™ Local, and how is it different from Ghost Open™?
Every Ghost Open™ mode plus teams, projects, Ghost Partner™ profiles and automatic checks on every commit, running entirely on hardware you own against a model server you run. Ghost Open™ is free for one person and sends your code to Anthropic's API with your own key; Local sends nothing anywhere, needs no API key, and is a monthly licence per seat band. Choose Local when the code cannot leave the building, or when a per-token bill is the wrong shape for your team.
Do I need an Anthropic API key for Ghost Architect™ Local?
No. Local runs against your own model server: Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio, Jan.ai or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. The model, the weights and every prompt stay on your network.
How does the evaluation trial work?
Request the download, install it, and the trial starts inside the product on first use, registered against that install; the product tells you the day it ends. No card. Convert during the trial and your first month is half price.
Which Local tiers include zero egress?
Agency ($1,000 a month, 15 seats) and Enterprise ($2,000 a month, unlimited seats). Zero-egress mode refuses, at the code level, any model endpoint that would send source code off the machine, and ships with the egress inventory that proves what the product can and cannot reach. Solo and Small Team run against your own model server too; they do not carry the enforced refusal.
How is Local delivered, and how do I upgrade?
Directly from us, not through a package registry. Buy a licence and your key and a download link arrive by email the moment you pay; for the evaluation trial, EJ sends the tarball or gives your GitHub account access to the delivery repository. Every tarball has a published SHA-256 to check before you unpack it. On Linux the installer provisions a service account and two systemd units (the portal and the scheduler). You upgrade by re-running the installer on the new tarball; your configuration, scan history and licence persist. The changelog lists every release.
What hardware do I need?
Whatever runs your model server. Ghost Architect™ Local measures its own pass times on your machine and estimates from them, so every time estimate you see is yours and not a benchmark from ours. Larger models read code more carefully and take longer per pass; the product's LLM Status page shows your machine's speed, memory and context window so you can see the trade-off before a long scan.
What does "free for one person" mean?
Ghost Open™ is source-available under the Business Source License 1.1. Its Additional Use Grant lets one person use it in production free of charge, on their own machines, for their own work or their employer's or clients' work. Every single-user mode is on, with no quotas, no trial clock and no license key. An organization using it through a shared, multi-user or hosted deployment needs a commercial license; for teams, that is Ghost Architect™ Local.
Do I need my own Anthropic API key?
Yes. Ghost Open™ is BYOK (Bring Your Own Key). This is by design: your code goes directly from your machine to Anthropic's API. We never see it. A typical scan costs $0.23 in Anthropic API usage. You can verify this yourself: the cost of every scan is printed in the output.
What is not in Ghost Open™?
Anything that needs more than one person or a server: teams, projects and project tracking, the Project Dashboard, Ghost Partner™ profiles and white-label reports, and automatic checks on every commit. Those are in Ghost Architect™ Local, along with your own model on your own hardware.
Can I get a demo?
Yes. Email [email protected] or connect on LinkedIn and we'll schedule a 15-minute Teams call with a live scan of a sample codebase.
What languages and platforms does Ghost Architect support?
Ghost Architect works on any codebase, any language, any platform, including PHP, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, Java, and more. It's framework-aware and analyzes code structure, dependency relationships, configuration files, and integration patterns regardless of what stack you're running.
Can I use Ghost Architect on a client's private repository?
Yes. Ghost Architect supports private GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket repositories. Authenticate with a personal access token, Ghost clones the repo locally, runs the scan, and removes the local clone when done. Your client's code never touches any third-party infrastructure beyond your own Anthropic API key.
