About the product

Do we need to change our IDE or AI agent?

No. AI Council connects to Claude Code, Codex and other MCP-capable agents. Your team keeps working in the same setup as today.

How is this different from CLAUDE.md?

A rules file works well in a small project. AI Council ties knowledge to the code, keeps it separate per branch, checks it for freshness and delivers it to the agent on its own. Detailed comparison

Which languages are supported?

Python, TypeScript and JavaScript, Java, Kotlin, C#, C, C++, PHP.

Where does the knowledge come from?

From analyzed tickets in GitHub Issues and Redmine, project documents, project chat answers, and entries that agents and people add while they work.

How does the knowledge base stay up to date?

When the code under an entry changes, a similar entry appears or a branch is merged, the entry goes to review. The model adds a label with a verbatim quote from the source, and the entry text stays as it was. A human sees the labels in the log and can undo any of them.

How do rules reach the agent?

When work starts, the agent gets every project-level rule in full, and after that they are repeated on a rotation. Rules for a specific file are picked by their bindings.

Security and models

Can we run it in an air-gapped environment?

Yes. The platform is installed on your server with a license key. The model side runs through Claude Code CLI, which can connect to an open-source model on your servers. Air-gapped installs are part of the Enterprise plan.

Does our code go to you?

When you self-host, your code and knowledge base stay on your server.

What telemetry do you collect?

Telemetry never includes user content, prompts or branch names. More on security

Pricing and billing

How much does it cost?

Startup, for teams of up to 10 users: $30 per user per month. Standard, for 10 to 50 users: $20 per user per month. Both plans run in the cloud or on your own server. For more than 50 users or an air-gapped install, we prepare an Enterprise quote. See pricing

How do we pay?

It's a monthly subscription billed per user. You subscribe online, and checkout and billing are handled by Paddle.

Can we cancel?

Yes, at any time. There is no long-term contract. Refund policy

Can we change the number of seats?

Yes. Add or remove seats as your team changes.

Are LLM tokens included?

No. You pay the model provider directly, under your own subscription or API key. AI Council sends the agent only the context the task needs, so you spend fewer tokens.

How do we get an Enterprise quote?

Message us on Telegram or LinkedIn with your team size and deployment requirements.

What happens to our data if we cancel?

If you decide not to continue, we'll help you export your knowledge base and rules.
