What this means for you

EVA has no pricing page because it has no pricing. The maintainer hosts the catalog on their own workstation and the static site costs nothing per user — there is one user.

The pitch

EVA is a tool, not a product. No accounts, no plans, no upsell. If you fork it and run your own, the only cost is the prompts you write.

Who it’s for

Anyone allergic to “Schedule a demo” buttons.

Proof points

Zero auth surface: no signup, no SSO, no team seats
Catalog is a static site — hosting cost rounds to zero
venv self-bootstrap means cloning + running takes one command (see eva-013)
