Free trial
Our free gives you 30 days to explore the platform and build with Vectara agent, retrieval, generation, and reranking capabilities. Use the trial to create your first agent, test retrieval workflows, query your data, and evaluate how Vectara can support your AI and search use cases.

If you signed up through the AWS Marketplace, your trial follows the AWS Marketplace onboarding flow.
Trial quotas and usage limits
Your trial includes 10,000 free credits. Credits are used when you run platform operations such as querying, generating responses, or using supported model and retrieval capabilities. Actual usage depends on the features, models, and workflows you use during the trial.
