Cost transparency and billing

Why We Offer Language Model Access at Cost

LLM at cost and simple transparent plan pricing means complete empowerment for your organization. While competitors often mark up AI costs by 200-500%, we believe you should pay exactly what it costs to run the world's best language models—nothing more. We handle all the complexity of AI model management, optimization, and routing for you, but we refuse to profit from inflated AI charges that burden organizations already stretched thin on resources.

Our Transparency Philosophy

Our approach differs fundamentally from industry standards in five key areas:

1. AI Cost Structure: While others use hidden AI markups, we pass through costs at actual cost, helping you save 60-80% on AI expenses compared to competitors who inflate these charges.

2. Pricing Complexity: Instead of complex enterprise pricing that's difficult to understand, we offer simple, predictable plans that make easy budgeting and planning possible for organizations of all sizes.

3. Cost Bundling: Rather than bundled costs that hide individual expenses, we separate platform and usage costs so you pay only for what you actually use without subsidizing features you don't need.

4. Billing Surprises: We eliminate surprise bills through real-time cost tracking that provides complete visibility and control over your AI usage and expenses.

5. Pricing Strategy: Unlike vendor lock-in pricing that penalizes growth, we maintain fair, honest pricing that gives you freedom to scale without penalty as your organization expands.

Complete Empowerment Through Honesty

No surprises, just pay for what you actually use. Our cost transparency isn't just about being nice—it's about empowering organizations to make confident decisions about AI technology without fear of hidden costs or unexpected bills. When you can see exactly what each search query and chat interaction costs (typically fractions of a penny), you can plan accurately, scale confidently, and focus on serving your community rather than worrying about unpredictable technology expenses.

We handle the complexity of managing multiple AI providers, optimizing response times, ensuring uptime, and maintaining the latest models, but we do it as a service partner, not a middleman looking to profit from AI access. This approach builds long-term relationships based on mutual success—when your organization thrives and serves your community better through intelligent search and chat capabilities, we succeed too. You'll never find yourself questioning whether you're overpaying for AI or wondering if there are hidden fees lurking in your next bill, because complete transparency means exactly that: complete transparency.
