August 2025 Development Updates #2
We’re transitioning all payments to the Reclaim Protocol Dev Tool. If you've been manually invoiced or using the free tier, you'll need to switch to the Dev Tool’s payment system by October 1, 2025.
For any questions or issues, please reach out to your Reclaim point of contact (PoC).
We’ve also delivered major dev improvements past week including custom URLs, optional fields, and a streamlined browser extension SDK. Check out this post for all the details.
Introducing Reclaim’s Pricing Plans
As part of our effort to simplify billing and improve the developer experience, we’re moving all payments to the Reclaim Protocol Dev Tool. This centralized system makes it easier to manage your apps, sessions, and billing in one place.
To support this transition, we're rolling out new pricing plans designed to serve everyone - from solo developers just getting started to enterprises running at scale.
Let’s take a closer look:
🛠 Builder Tier (Freemium)
Whether you’re a seasoned developer or a hacker working on side projects, this plan is perfect to get started.
1,000 sessions
1 application
Access to all providers built by the community
No paywalls - just start building right away.
🏢 Enterprise Tier (Custom Pricing – Contact Us)
For businesses and enterprises that need scale, reliability, and advanced capabilities, our Enterprise Plan unlocks the full power of Reclaim.
Full access to building custom providers
Access to AI capabilities for verification flows
Separate staging and production applications
Increased session limits tailored to your needs
Dedicated integration support
We’re keeping things simple: Free to build, Enterprise to scale.
DevTool now supports optional parameters
APIs can be unpredictable - sometimes a field like some_status is returned, sometimes it’s missing. Previously, if a required field wasn’t present, the entire verification process would fail. The workaround? Writing a custom JS injection to fetch data without that field - functional, but far from convenient.
Now, with optional fields, you can simply mark any provider field as optional in DevTool. If the field exists in the API response, we use it. If not, we return null and continue proof generation without errors.
Why this matters:
What used to take a week of JS hacks now takes one click. Developers can focus on building features - not fighting edge cases.
Browser Extension SDK: From Weeks to Minutes
https://github.com/reclaimprotocol/reclaim-browser-extension-sdk
Our new Browser Extension SDK reduces integration from a week to literally few lines of code plus some copy-paste configuration. Here's the magic:
npm i @reclaimprotocol/browser-extension-sdkRun our setup script (handles all file copying and circuit downloads)
Add a few manifest permissions
Import and initialize our background script
Done. Your extension now has full Reclaim proof generation capabilities.
The SDK supports both web app triggering (when you want your website to activate the extension) and direct extension usage. Same clean API as our JS SDK, so if you're already familiar with Reclaim integration, you're good to go.
JS SDK v4.4.0 – Now with Custom Share Page & App Clip URLs!
https://github.com/reclaimprotocol/reclaim-js-sdk/pull/48
You can now define custom Share Page and App Clip URLs, enabling fully branded or white-labeled verification flows. The SDK also adds config import/export (), session ID access, and improved browser extension and device detection logic.
