Confluent pricing

By Lars Cornelissen · Published 18 Sep 2026 · Last verified 5 Oct 2026 · How these numbers are produced

What do public agencies pay for Confluent?

$584,032.53 – $2,976,931.71 typical award, across 32 awards for licence and renewal purchases

Full range $23,759.45 to $35,400,986.1, median $2,199,051, over 25 Sep 2019 – 30 Sep 2026; vendor list price $385 / USD per month (starting).

These are contract totals for one award each — what an agency was awarded, for the scope its description states — not a price per licence, and not comparable with the vendor’s list price, which is a different kind of number (why the distinction matters).

Public agencies have awarded 45 contracts naming Confluent, from $23,759 to $35,400,986, each traced to a USAspending record. 32 of them are licence or renewal purchases, and those are the records the figures above are computed from. A contract total bundles scope, term and reseller margin, so it is not a rate for the next purchase.

Each bar is one Confluent award, ordered by award date; hover a bar for its award ID. Every bar is a contract total (obligated), so height reflects the scope of that Confluent purchase, not a unit price. The vendor list price is a per-USD per month (starting) figure and is not drawn on this axis.

Price summary

$385 / USD per month (starting) Vendor list price (list_price)

Confluent, Inc.’s own published price. Source, captured 2026-10-05. Comparable only with other list prices.

$23,759.45 Lowest observed public contract (contract_total)

The smallest of the 45 Confluent awards on file — one data point, not a unit price.

$35,400,986.1 Highest observed public contract (contract_total)

The largest Confluent award on file. It bought the work its description states, not “a Confluent licence”.

These three figures are not comparable with each other, and the type next to each number is the point: the USD per month (starting) list price is Confluent Inc.’s own unit price, while the contract totals describe different scopes of work bought by different agencies.

match reseller_mapping+description, confidence 0.99

Each row appears only because its own description names Confluent — never because a vendor or reseller was named. Matches scoring below 0.8 were dropped and counted rather than guessed, so this Confluent table is a floor on what the record shows, not a total.

Hidden-cost patterns in the descriptions

These 57 recurring cost items are quoted from the Confluent award text itself, each with the record it came from. None of them is a Confluent price — they are the costs that sit alongside the subscription.

Sources and method

This Confluent file rests on 45 US federal contract awards running from 25 Sep 2019 to 30 Sep 2026, awarded by 8 agencies, most often Department of Defense. Every row links to its own record on USAspending.gov, which is where the amount and date come from. The rules for matching a product, narrowing with classification codes, and labelling each amount by type are on the methodology page.

What this Confluent page does not claim. No award here is a price for a Confluent licence, the figures are not comparable across rows, and the file is not complete — it covers what the pipeline could match confidently, with everything discarded recorded in rejected.json. Only Confluent Inc. can quote Confluent.
