Pricing

Start in Shared. Pay for what you use.

We do not create a server for every customer. Your organization starts with a limited Managed usage scope in Schift's shared service pool; larger usage, storage, or retention moves to an Instance service.

Shared service levels

Popular

Shared Starter

Starter

$200 /mo

A limited standard Managed usage entry with one-month default retention. Start with one repeated question set and the documents behind it.

  • Organization tenant in the Shared Pool
  • No separate per-user charge
  • Limited Managed usage with one-month default retention

Instance

Instance

Contact

Move to the existing prepaid/commit Instance when usage, retention, reporting, or SLA needs exceed Starter.

  • Organization-scoped permissions and usage records
  • Approval and review flows
  • Expanded retention and support scope

Usage stays inside the agreed scope

Shared Starter begins with limited Managed usage. AI usage, memory, retention, and confirmed SKUs are recorded inside that scope; larger needs move to an Instance service.

Frequently asked questions

How does pricing work?

Shared Starter is $200/month for limited standard Managed usage with one-month default retention. Larger usage, memory, retention, reporting, and SLA needs move to the existing prepaid/commit Instance service. There is no seat or headcount charge.

Does Shared mean customer data is mixed together?

The infrastructure is shared, while organization, source, and permission boundaries remain separate. Customer VPC or dedicated database requirements are handled as a separate isolation scope.

What are credits?

AI and confirmed usage items are recorded in credits so you can see what was used. The basis varies by model, storage, and retention scope, and the same resource is not charged twice.

Is pricing per seat?

No. We do not charge for the number of people using the organization space. Pricing follows the usage, retention, and support scope you need.

How long does setup take?

Shared Pool setup depends on the documents and workflow you connect. Data migration, custom integrations, and security review are scoped during consultation.

Can we start with a proof of concept?

Yes. We scope a Shared Pool pilot around a real repeated task and its source documents, review the result, and expand the operating scope from there.
