Bigeye Pricing and Bigeye Cost at $45,000 for 100 Tables and $75,000 for 300
Bigeye's website has no pricing page. Its marketplace listings do: two fixed 12-month packages sized in monitored tables. Here is what each buys, the per-table math, what buyers report paying, and when a flat-priced lineage tool does the job for a fraction of it.

Bigeye costs $45,000 a year for 100 monitored tables and $75,000 a year for 300, according to its own AWS Marketplace listing, re-read on 14 October 2026. That is $450 per table per year at the entry package and $250 at the larger one. Both packages bundle two Core Lineage Plus connectors and a browser extension, both are 12-month contracts, and nothing above 300 tables has a published price. Vendr reports a buyer median of $25,000 a year, so list is a ceiling, not the deal.
Bigeye pricing in two packages sized by monitored tables
Bigeye (legal name Toro Data Labs, Inc.) sells the same two packages on AWS Marketplace and Microsoft Marketplace. Because the listings are transactable, they have to carry a real dollar amount, which is the only reason a Bigeye price is public at all.
| Package | Entitlement | Bundled | 12-month list | Per table per year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Package | 100 Active Monitored Tables | Two Core Lineage Plus connectors, browser extension | $45,000.00 | $450 |
| Enterprise Starter Package | 300 Active Monitored Tables | Two Core Lineage Plus connectors, browser extension | $75,000.00 | $250 |
The 200 tables between the packages cost $30,000. Bigeye is priced to make a small deployment expensive and a larger one reasonable.
Alation sells undefined "units" and Sifflet sells undefined credits. Bigeye names a table count, so its cost per table is one of the few in the category you can compute from public documents.
A 1,000-table Snowflake account has no published Bigeye price. Neither does a 50-table one, which would still buy the full $45,000 package on the marketplace.
Bigeye cost depends on what counts as a monitored table
An Active Monitored Table is the metered unit, and neither listing defines it further. Bigeye's documentation describes two layers of monitoring: pipeline health (freshness, volume, schema) across the warehouse, and deeper machine-learned quality metrics, from a library of more than 70, on the tables that matter most.
Whether a table with only pipeline-health checks counts against your 100 the same way a table with ten quality metrics does is not on the listing. Neither is whether views, dbt models or external tables count. Those three answers decide whether you are a Starter customer or an Enterprise Starter one, so get them in writing.
The two Core Lineage Plus connectors are Bigeye's column-level lineage integrations, with connectors for Snowflake, Databricks, SQL Server, Oracle, DB2 on z/OS and Netezza among others. A modern stack of warehouse, dbt and a BI tool is three systems, so the bundle covers two and the third is a separate conversation. Extra connectors are not priced on either listing.
What Bigeye customers report paying
Marketplace list, 100 tables, 12 months
Vendr buyer median per year
Low end of Vendr's reported range
High end of Vendr's reported range
The whole reported range sits below the smallest marketplace package. There are two plausible readings and the data cannot separate them: buyers negotiate well off list, or they sign direct contracts for fewer than 100 tables that the marketplace does not offer. Either way, the practical takeaway is the same. Use $45,000 as the number you push down from, and ask for a direct quote at your real table count before you accept a marketplace private offer at list. Vendr figures were read on 14 October 2026 and are buyer-reported, not a Bigeye price.
Bigeye pricing vs Monte Carlo, Datadog, Acceldata and Sifflet
Every figure is a list price read by this site from the vendor's own rate card or listing on the date shown. Monte Carlo's columns cover table monitors only; every metric monitor, SQL rule or agent you add draws credits on top.
| Vendor | Published meter | 100 tables a year | 300 tables a year | Source, read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bigeye | Package of 100 or 300 monitored tables | $45,000 | $75,000 | AWS Marketplace, 14 Oct 2026 |
| Monte Carlo, Scale | $0.28 per credit, Table Monitor 1.75 credits a day | $17,885 | $53,655 | Monte Carlo rate card, 15 Sep 2026 |
| Monte Carlo, Start | $0.18 per credit | $11,498 | $34,493 | Monte Carlo rate card, 15 Sep 2026 |
| Datadog Data Observability (Metaplane) | $16 per monitored table a month, annual | $19,200 | $57,600 | Datadog price list, 16 Sep 2026 |
| Acceldata | $5,000 per Data Reliability unit, sized on TB processed | From $5,000 | Not table-based | AWS Marketplace, 13 Oct 2026 |
| Sifflet | $48,000 of platform credits, credit undefined | Not table-based | Not table-based | AWS Marketplace, 26 Aug 2026 |
| DataTrail | Flat plan, no table meter | $708 to $5,748 | $708 to $5,748 | datatrail.ai/pricing |
At 100 tables Monte Carlo lists $11,498 to $17,885 against Bigeye's $45,000. The full bracket table is on Monte Carlo pricing.
Bigeye's package does not grow when you add monitors to a table. A meter does. For a finance team that hates surprises, that is worth something.
Acceldata sizes on terabytes processed, not tables. The head-to-head is in Bigeye vs Acceldata.
What a Bigeye contract commits you to
Both listings sell a 12-month term and nothing else, so there is no multi-year price to test. Across the vendors we track, 24 and 36 month list prices are exactly linear (Collibra, Informatica and Anomalo all charge 2x and 3x), which means any multi-year discount from Bigeye will be negotiated, not listed.
The AWS listing's refund policy is two words, "No Refunds", and the listing auto-renews. A package that renews silently at $45,000 or $75,000 is the kind of line that surprises a finance team in month thirteen, so diarize the renewal sixty days out.
Not on either listing: professional services, connectors beyond the bundled two, anything above 300 tables, and Bigeye's newer AI Trust products, which it now leads its homepage with. If those are in scope, they are in the quote, not the rate card.
When Bigeye is worth $45,000 and when it is not
You have a bounded set of high-value tables, a regulated team that wants a fixed annual number, and legacy systems such as Oracle, SQL Server, DB2 or Netezza that most cloud-native tools cannot read. That legacy lineage coverage is real and rare.
The estate is large and cloud-native and you prefer a meter that gets cheaper per table at scale. Monte Carlo publishes its brackets. The comparison is in Bigeye vs Monte Carlo.
What you actually need is lineage and change impact on a Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift or Postgres warehouse, not a 70-metric monitoring program. That is a flat $59 to $479 a month.
The lineage without the table meter
Bigeye bundles two lineage connectors into a $45,000 monitoring package. DataTrail is the lineage. It connects with a read-only role, parses query history and dbt artifacts into column-level lineage, and shows downstream impact analysis on a column before a change ships, with freshness monitoring and schema change alerts on the same graph.
Plans are flat: Starter $59 a month, Team $179 with impact analysis and anomaly detection, Scale $479 for multiple warehouses. No table count to stay under, unlimited team members. Team works out to $2,148 a year, about what Bigeye charges for five monitored tables at its entry rate. Details on the pricing page, and the product-by-product comparison on Bigeye alternatives.
What DataTrail does not do: it does not ship a 70-metric quality library and it does not read DB2 on z/OS or Netezza. If those are the requirement, Bigeye is the better tool.
Bigeye pricing questions buyers ask
How much does Bigeye cost?
Bigeye costs $45,000 a year for the Starter Package with 100 Active Monitored Tables, or $75,000 a year for the Enterprise Starter Package with 300. Both include two Core Lineage Plus connectors and the browser extension, and both are 12-month contracts on AWS Marketplace and Microsoft Marketplace. Anything above 300 tables is quoted by sales.
Does Bigeye publish its pricing?
Not on its own website. bigeye.com/pricing returns a 404 and the site routes buyers to a demo request. Bigeye does publish two packages with dollar amounts and stated table counts on AWS Marketplace and Microsoft Marketplace, which is more than most observability vendors publish anywhere.
What is Bigeye's price per table?
Bigeye works out to $450 per monitored table per year on the 100-table Starter Package and $250 on the 300-table Enterprise Starter Package. The 200 extra tables between the two packages cost $30,000, or $150 each. There is no published rate above 300 tables.
What do Bigeye customers actually pay?
Vendr reports a median Bigeye contract of $25,000 a year, with a range of $15,000 to $40,263, read 14 October 2026. That is below the $45,000 marketplace list for 100 tables, which suggests smaller table counts or negotiated discounts off list. Treat it as a buyer-reported range, not a Bigeye price.
Is Bigeye cheaper than Monte Carlo?
Not at list for a small estate. Monte Carlo's published credit rates put 100 monitored tables at $11,498 on Start and $17,885 on Scale, against Bigeye's $45,000. At 300 tables the gap narrows to $34,493 to $53,655 against $75,000. Monte Carlo's figures cover table monitors only and grow with every extra monitor, while Bigeye's package is fixed.
Does Bigeye have a free trial?
No. Neither marketplace listing includes a trial dimension and bigeye.com has no free tier, so evaluation runs through a sales demo and a proof of concept. The AWS listing states "No Refunds" and auto-renews, so finish the evaluation before you accept the private offer.
What is an Active Monitored Table?
It is the unit Bigeye's packages are sized in, and the listings do not define it further. Ask whether a table with only freshness and volume checks counts the same as one with a dozen quality metrics, and whether views and dbt models count, before you size the package.
What is a cheaper alternative to Bigeye for lineage?
If the reason you are pricing Bigeye is column-level lineage and catching breaking changes before they hit dashboards, DataTrail does that for $59 to $479 a month on a flat plan, read-only, with no table count. It does not replicate Bigeye's 70-plus metric library or its legacy connectors for DB2 and Netezza.
Where these numbers came from
AWS Marketplace pages render in the browser, so a plain fetch returns nothing. We rendered Bigeye's listing with headless Chrome on 14 October 2026 and read the contract rate card from the page data:
MP=https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp google-chrome --headless=new --dump-dom \ --virtual-time-budget=30000 \ "$MP/prodview-w4yis4dzpm4u2" # Starter Package P12M 45000.00 # Enterprise Starter Package P12M 75000.00
The same two packages appear on Microsoft Marketplace (read 15 September 2026). bigeye.com/pricing returned a 404 on 14 October 2026. Buyer figures are from Vendr's Bigeye page, read the same day. Competitor figures are this site's own readings on the dates in the table.
What we did not do: repeat the "$60,000 to $198,000" ranges some directories print without a source, or guess what an Active Monitored Table excludes. Every figure is list, before any private offer.
