Essert's pricing is based on the number of distinct AI systems you connect and govern — not seats, not data volume, not API calls. Add a new model, copilot, or vendor AI tool to your catalog, and it's billed at your tier's per-system rate. Remove one, and your bill adjusts the same month.
There's no annual contract requirement — month-to-month billing is available on every tier, with an optional annual discount (~15%) if you'd rather lock in a rate.
Any distinct model, copilot, or AI-powered vendor tool you register in Essert's catalog — for example, a fraud-detection model and a customer-support copilot count as two systems, even if they share underlying infrastructure.
Yes — the Starter tier includes a 14-day free trial with up to 3 AI systems, no credit card required to start.
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades take effect at the next billing cycle.
Yes — contact sales for nonprofit and early-stage startup pricing.
You'll be notified in-app before any overage; you can either upgrade or remove systems to stay within your tier.
No. All tiers are available month-to-month. An annual commitment is optional and comes with a discount.
