How it works
The software is free under the MIT licence with no paid tier and no pricing page. You run it yourself with Docker or a server, and you pay only for hosting and your own model API tokens. It was acquired by ClickHouse in November 2025 and remains open source.
LibreChat suits developers and power users who want one chat app for every model they use, without paying a monthly subscription for the interface itself.
