Aident Loadout

What it does

Ships it

PartlyIt gives coding agents actions against deployment platforms, so a deploy can be triggered through Loadout, but Loadout itself produces no diff and the vendor documents no release pipeline of its own.Let coding agents work with issue trackers, repositories, documentation Apps, communication Apps, and deployment platforms.aident.ai/llms.txt ↗

Done-for-you service

NoEvery published tier is self-serve software you install into your own agent; the only human-delivered option is a sales conversation for on-premises or a dedicated project, not an agency building agents for you.On-premises deployment or a dedicated project.aident.ai/pricing ↗

How much it does unattended

Runs autonomously

PartlyConnected agents execute actions without a per-call human approval step, but review is after the fact in Audit and the autonomy belongs to the calling agent rather than to Loadout.Connect Apps once, use them across supported agents, and review every Action without exposing raw credentials to the agent.aident.ai/llms.txt ↗

Multi-agent

PartlyOne loadout is reusable by several agents, clients and devices at once, but the vendor documents no orchestration of multiple agents cooperating on a single task.Reuse the same connected toolset across supported agents, clients, and devices.aident.ai/llms.txt ↗

Agent permissions

PartlyA loadout is described as carrying policies and audit rules and agents never receive raw secrets, but no per-action allow/deny policy editor or approval gate is documented in the Loadout docs.A loadout is a curated set of capabilities, credentials, policies, and audit rules that an agent can carry into a task.docs.aident.ai/documentation/loadouts.md ↗

Which models it runs on

Claude

PartlyClaude Code and Claude Desktop are named supported clients, so Claude-based agents can use it, but Loadout supplies no model and does not bill for Claude inference.Loadout supports Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, OpenClaw, HermesAgent, Antigravity, VS Code-style clients, ChatGPT, Claude Desktop, and other…aident.ai ↗

GPT

PartlyCodex and ChatGPT are listed supported clients, which covers GPT-based agents, but the model itself comes from the client and is not part of what Loadout provides or prices.Loadout supports Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, OpenClaw, HermesAgent, Antigravity, VS Code-style clients, ChatGPT, Claude Desktop, and other…aident.ai ↗

Model choice

YesThe product is positioned as a layer for any agent, so the model and the agent are the buyer's choice entirely; Aident sells capabilities, never inference.The unified capability layer that connects any agent to 1,000+ Apps, 27,000+ Actions, and over 400 expert-built Skills through one reusable setup.aident.ai ↗

Where you use it

In your editor

YesCursor, VS Code, Cline and Windsurf are listed as supported harnesses, so the capability set is reachable from inside the editor's own agent.Supported harnesses include: * Codex * Claude Code * OpenClaw * HermesAgent * OpenCode * Cursor * Pi * Cline * Windsurf * VS Code * n8n *…docs.aident.ai/documentation/loadouts.md ↗

On the command line

YesThere is a first-party aident CLI that handles install, authentication and updates, and the docs state it exposes the same discovery and execution workflow as MCP.Run through CLI or MCP**: The Aident Loadout CLI and MCP server expose the same capability discovery and execution workflow to supported clients.aident.ai/llms.txt ↗

In a browser

YesA hosted dashboard carries Home, Integrations, Vault and Audit tabs, so connecting apps and reviewing runs happens in the browser.Open Loadout at [loadout.aident.ai/dashboard](https://loadout.aident.ai/dashboard).docs.aident.ai/loadout/overview.md ↗

Whose machine it runs on

Self-hosted

PartlyOn-premises deployment is offered only through a sales conversation on the custom tier; no self-hosted option exists on any published self-serve plan.On-premises deployment or a dedicated project.aident.ai/pricing ↗

Open source

PartlyThe agent-side skill package is published as an MIT-licensed public repository, while the Loadout platform, Vault and action catalog remain a closed hosted service.license: MITaident.ai/SETUP.md ↗

What it costs to run

How it meters

YesBilling is a monthly plan fee plus a consumable USD balance: plans grant a monthly amount and top-ups carry a sliding service fee, with credits charged per action.$10 balance $10 + 3.5% service fee $20 balance $20 + 3% service fee $50 balance $50 + 2% service fee $100 balance $100 + 1% service fee $200 balance…aident.ai/pricing ↗

Free tier

YesA standing Pay-as-you-go plan costs nothing per month and includes setup across supported clients and standard apps; only consumption needs a top-up.Pay-as-you-go $0 / Monthaident.ai/pricing ↗

API access

PartlyProgrammatic access is real but takes the form of a hosted MCP server and a CLI; no public REST API reference is published for driving Loadout from your own code.Loadout exposes a hosted MCP server for chat apps and MCP clients:docs.aident.ai/loadout/setup-agents.md ↗

MCP server

YesA hosted MCP server at loadout.aident.ai/mcp lets any MCP-compatible client search, inspect and execute capabilities after browser OAuth, with staging and RC endpoints documented too.The Aident MCP Server exposes the full suite of Aident tools across auth, capabilities, skills, integrations, playbooks, templates, and dashboard.docs.aident.ai/documentation/mcp-api-re… ↗

Bring your own key

YesYou may connect your own provider accounts or store your own API keys in Vault, or instead use Aident-managed built-in apps funded from your balance; model inference keys stay with your agent client.Use connected and built-in services**: Bring your own accounts or use supported Aident-managed Apps without separate provider setup.aident.ai/llms.txt ↗

Buying it for a team

A company can buy it

YesA Team plan is sold self-serve with a shared balance and per-member app connections, and a custom tier exists for on-premises or dedicated projects.Team $59 / Month Upgrade to Team $30.00 shared balance added every monthaident.ai/pricing ↗

Pooled budget

YesThe Team plan tops up a single shared balance each month that members draw from, rather than giving each member a separate allowance.$30.00 shared balance added every monthaident.ai/pricing ↗

Admin controls

PartlyAdmins alone control stored credentials in Vault, which constrains which integrations can act, but no documented policy screen limits which actions an agent may call.Vault stores delegated credentials for integrations that use API keys or shared service credentials instead of OAuth. Only admin users can manage…docs.aident.ai/loadout/vault-and-audit.… ↗

Audit log

PartlyEvery agent action call is recorded with status, source client, duration and credits spent, but the documented Audit covers execution rather than administrative changes such as credential rotation or plan edits.Each audit entry can include: * Action name * Integration account * Source client * Status * Duration * Credits used * Created timedocs.aident.ai/loadout/vault-and-audit.… ↗

What happens to your code

Data residency

PartlyThe privacy policy places processing in the United States with cross-border safeguards for EU transfers, and offers no choice of hosting region on any tier.we no longer rely on the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as a basis for transferring data from the European Union to the United States and instead…aident.ai/privacy-policy ↗

Getting out

PartlyAudit history and connections can be reviewed and revoked in the dashboard, but no data export is documented and the terms disclaim any obligation to refund an unused balance; credit expiry is never addressed.Aident has no obligation to provide refunds or credits, but may grant them in extenuating circumstances, as a result of specific refund guarantee…aident.ai/terms-of-service ↗
