About
Datree is a Kubernetes policy enforcement tool that blocks deployments of misconfigured resources through an admission webhook. It checks new configuration changes against built-in policies and can also scan locally before deployment so sensitive data stays inside the environment.
The product includes CLI integration, centralized policy management across clusters, and a management dashboard for security posture scoring, policy violation analysis, and scan history. The pricing page lists a free plan for one cluster, with unlimited users and tokens, plus enforcement and monitoring for that cluster.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is a genuinely usable starter offering because it includes enforcement and monitoring for one cluster, the CLI, centralized policy management, and the dashboard, but it is capped at a single cluster. The cheapest paid plan is $0.04/hour per node, which works out to about $29.20/month per node, so the free tier is worth roughly that much for a small single-cluster setup; a credit card is required to get started, which adds some friction.
