Overview

DevCycle is a feature flag and experimentation platform built on the OpenFeature standard, with SDKs for web, server and mobile. Flags are served from an edge network with local caching and fallback to safe defaults, and managed via a dashboard, REST API, CLI or MCP server. It also covers A/B testing, gradual rollouts, targeting rules and audit logging.

Best for: Development teams that want feature flags on the OpenFeature standard without per-seat pricing
Pricing: Free for up to 1,000 client-side MAUs, then Business at $500/month billed annually ($625/month otherwise) with usage overages, and custom Enterprise pricing.
Runs on: WebSelf-hostedCLI
