COMPARE

$10 buys model access. Pass buys the gateway your agents run through.

OpenCode Go is a low-cost subscription for curated open coding models. TDE Pass is an AI Gateway for the agents in your loop — flat monthly price, Anthropic and OpenAI-compatible endpoints, Sync included on public bundles, and a fair-use policy that slows down instead of cutting you off.

PRICING

Same job family. Different unit of sale.

Go sells included dollar-usage for open models. Pass sells flat monthly gateway access sized to an agent routine — and public bundles include multi-device Sync.

OpenCode Go

    Then $10/mo. ~$60/mo included usage (about 6× the monthly price).

    $5

  • Go (ongoing)

    Windows: $12 / 5 hours · $30 / week · $60 / month. Top up via Zen balance.

    $10/mo

OpenCode Go figures from opencode.ai/docs/go (public docs). Usage is dollar-metered; cheaper models yield more requests.

All list prices shown in USD. Checkout may show your local currency via Stripe where supported — that is checkout UX, not a second list price.

FEATURES

Side by side.

An honest matrix for agent coding. Pass is narrower on catalog and stronger on the workspace around the gateway.

FIT

When to pick which.

Neither product is “better” in the abstract. Match the unit of sale to the job.

Choose TDE Pass when…

  • Agents live inside your loop

    You want the gateway wired to My Loop, Sync, and a free local desktop — not only an API key.

  • Hard stops hurt more than slowdowns

    A mid-session block is worse than fair-use throttling for multi-agent weeks.

  • You need a middle tier

    Max at $50 sits between Go’s single $10 SKU and heavier Ultra workloads — sized for two or three agents.

Choose OpenCode Go when…

  • Price is the constraint

    You want the lowest sticky monthly bill for curated open coding models.

  • You want the widest Go catalog

    Qwen, Grok, Luna and friends matter more than Sync or a desktop OS.

  • You’re already in OpenCode Zen

    Go + Zen balance is a natural top-up path without changing tools.

Is Pass cheaper than Go?

No on sticker price. Go starts at $10/mo. Pass public bundles start at $20/mo and include Sync. Compare the month you actually run agents — the routine each plan supports and whether a hard stop costs you a deadline.

Can I use Pass with OpenCode?

Yes. Point OpenCode (or any Anthropic/OpenAI-compatible client) at the TDE Pass AI Gateway the same way you would with Go’s endpoints.

Do you show local-currency comparison tables?

No. List prices are USD only. Stripe may localize currency at checkout where supported.

TDE PASS

Put an AI Gateway behind the agents you already run.

Install the free desktop, add Pass when you want flat-rate open models that speak Anthropic and OpenAI protocols — without a per-token invoice.
