Kurrent free plan drops 5 seats, Micro deployment; now Apple silicon only
What happened
Between the Oct 19, 2026 and Oct 26, 2026 captures of Kurrent's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Free plan card no longer lists 5 seats, Micro deployment, Sessions/recap/sharing, and Managed summaries and evals; card now only notes Apple silicon, macOS 15 or later. In detail: Free plan repositioned from a hosted 5-seat workspace to a local, no-account edition that runs on your own Mac (Apple silicon, macOS 15 or later) while kcap is invite-only; Free card drops its 5 seats, Micro deployment, Sessions/recap/sharing, and Managed summaries and evals bullets and the "Free forever" note. The comparison table still lists a hosted Free column (5 seats). Pulse files it as a packaging change (freemium change) with a neutral direction. The current page lists Team at $15.
It lands 8 days after Kurrent's previous change, "Kurrent doubles Team plan free trial to 60 days, no card required" (Oct 19, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Kurrent doubles Team plan seat cap to 100 at same $15/user price" (Sep 28, 2026). Kurrent has been tracked since 2026-04-28.
In the same window Stripe and Squarespace also changed their Data & Analytics pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
