See the [Plans and pricing page](https://snyk.io/plans/) for more details. See [What counts as a test?](https://docs.snyk.io/snyk-data-and-governance/what-counts-as-a-test) for details of how Snyk counts tests.
{% endhint %}

## Contributing developers

Snyk defines contributing developers as developers having made a commit to a private repo monitored by Snyk in the last 90 days.

The **Contributing developers for SCM and CLI integrations** section shows contributing developer counts, both at the Organization level and the Group level.

The developer count is the number of developers who have contributed to the default branch of any private repository connected to an integration.

Snyk does not count contributions to public (open-source) repos because the pricing model is based on the number of contributing developers to private repositories.

The contributing developers count shows:

* **Total unique contributors across all integrations:** the number of contributors across all the integrations in your Snyk account. Contributing developers are only counted once, even if they have contributed to multiple integrations or multiple repositories.
* **Breakdown by integration**: the number of contributors, Organizations, and repos in that integration.

A contributor is recognized through the author email field, set in the local Git settings.
