Before you apply
Built for a careful first run.
Gated is in private preview. Start with a non-critical GitHub repository and keep direct agent credentials out of the workflow, since they can bypass Gated.
Who qualifies
One individual account used professionally or for business in one of the 50 U.S. states. Gated’s verified GitHub path creates a branch at an exact commit through scoped authority and can require passkey approval.
What we ask of you
Share meaningful written feedback, a bug report, onboarding feedback, a short interview, or the official questionnaire in your first 30 days. A human reviews it; missing feedback does not silently change your price.
Founding questions
Why is the price so low?
This is a small controlled pilot with a narrow GitHub scope. Founding members help test onboarding and provide one substantive feedback action. The offer is not a claim about a future retail price.
What does lifetime mean?
Free access lasts while Gated offers the Founding service. The $1 monthly base rate lasts while the qualifying subscription stays continuously active and the service is offered. It is not a promise to operate forever.
Is this for an entire workspace?
No. Each acceptance covers one qualifying individual account, used professionally or for business in one of the 50 U.S. states. Extra seats, team accounts and future premium tiers are not included.
Is Gated production-ready?
No. Gated is in private preview for a controlled, non-critical GitHub pilot. Direct provider credentials and tools can bypass Gated; only explicitly routed actions are governed.
What feedback is required?
One substantive written feedback action, bug report, onboarding report, interview or questionnaire in the first 30 days, reviewed by a person. The clock starts at free acceptance or first successful paid payment. There is no monthly requirement.
What happens after I apply?
Check current application availability on the application page. When open, sign in and submit your intended use and eligibility. A human reviews it. Acceptance determines the free or paid position; applying does not reserve a place or charge you. Paid checkout stays separately gated.
Read the preview guide, GitHub capability scope, and security boundary before your first run.
