Supported Pricing Archetypes
1. Flat Fee Subscriptions
- Mechanism: Fixed recurring fee per billing cycle (e.g. $10,000/month or $120,000/year).
- Billing: Invoiced in advance.
- Revenue: Amortized ratably over the contract duration.
2. Per-Seat & Volume Tiered Pricing
- Tiered / Graduated: First 100 seats at $50/seat, next 400 seats at $40/seat, thereafter at $30/seat.
- Volume / Block: Price per seat applies to all units once a volume threshold is crossed.
3. Consumption & Metered Usage
- Pure Usage: Billed in arrears based on ingested telemetry events (e.g., API calls, compute hours, transactions processed).
- Prepaid Commitments with Drawdown: Customer prepays $50,000 in credits; monthly consumption burns down the balance; overages invoice automatically in arrears.
