PRICING
Pricing the gate's way: a visible number, no surprises.
The principle that governs the product governs its price: you pay for seats and a usage balance shown daily — the same balance employees and leadership see inside the gate, not a rate card living in another world.
The model: seats on work accounts + a usage balance visible daily, with all of governance — gates, register, board, exports — inside the price, never sold as an add-on. No published tiers pre-launch: final numbers are set with the first cohort and discussed at minute thirty of the session.
Illustrative numbers — the shape of cost control, not a promise of your figures. This same balance is a screen in the product.
THE EQUATION
Seats, a balance, and approvals that hold the ceiling.
Three clear terms instead of fine print at the contract's end — because an AI bill should read the way its register reads.
Seats
Who enters the gate — on the same work account your identity provider grants, so no ghost seats and no duplicate accounts.
The usage balance
What conversations actually consume — a daily number the employee sees on their page and leadership on its board, before it becomes an invoice.
Approvals hold the ceiling
Raising the balance is a named manager's decision written as an entry — cost moves by your recorded decision, not by creep the CFO discovers at month's end.
The balance is not a marketing idea for this page — it is the balance screen in the control plane.
A DESIGN STANCE
Governance is all inside the price — no separately sold compliance layer.
A product whose governance is a paid add-on is saying governance is optional. Here the four gates are the product — no budget edition that switches off the register, no meter selling you visibility into yourselves.
- The four gates. Identity, permission, balance, record — on every request, in every plan, no exceptions.
- The full register. Denial entries and admin actions included — no 'advanced audit' bought later.
- The leadership board. Where usage happens, what it costs, who approved — part of the product, not a reporting module.
- Machine-shaped exports. To your SIEM and your auditors — the same shape, inside the price.
IN FULL CANDOR
No published tiers — a decision we explain, not hide.
A pricing page without numbers takes courage; a page of numbers that change in two months takes an apology.
No tiers are published yet — we are pre-launch, and final numbers are set with the first cohort, not before it.
They are discussed at minute thirty of the session — after you have watched the balance work in front of you.Saying 'the number is set with you' is more honest than publishing a number we know will change.
For the budget owner: a session that ends with a number.
Your context first, then the balance live on a case like yours, then numbers on the table at minute thirty — and whatever doesn't fit your budget is said in the same session.
BUYER QUESTIONS
Asked in every budget conversation.
Why don't you publish prices?
Because we are pre-launch and pricing is settled with the first cohort on real usage — publishing numbers that will change violates our laws. What we publish is what is honest today: the full model, and exactly when and where the number arrives in the session.
Is governance a paid add-on above the price?
No — governance is the product. The four gates, register, board, and exports are inside the price in every case; there is no register-less edition for us to sell the register back on top of.
Is there a free trial?
Pre-launch there is no self-serve signup — plainly. What exists: a trial case configured with you in the session on illustrative data, and for the first cohort a validation period with terms agreed in writing.
What raises the cost after signing?
Usage — and only usage, visible daily before it becomes an invoice: seats added by decision, balance raised by a named manager's approval written as an entry. No surprise fees for 'governance features'.
