PRICING · USAGE-MODELED

Priced for the model count,
not the headcount.

Most GRC tools price per employee. AI risk doesn't scale that way. Cognita prices on the surface area that actually matters: managed models and active integrations.

Frequently asked

Why don't you charge per employee?

AI risk doesn't scale with headcount — it scales with the number of models you ship. We bill on the surface that actually correlates with audit complexity.

What counts as a "managed model"?

Any deployed inference endpoint or registered training artifact. Sandbox/experimental models don't count until you promote them to a production environment.

Can I bring my existing SOC 2 evidence?

Yes. Connect your existing GRC tool or upload directly. Our shared-control mapper auto-credits ISO 42001 controls — typically 40% on day one.

How does the trial work?

30 days, full Scale tier, no credit card. We import a sample model registry so you can see the AIIA workflow on day one. Convert anytime.

Do you offer non-profit / academic pricing?

Yes. Accredited research labs and registered non-profits get 50% off any tier. Email [email protected].

Is on-prem really air-gapped?

Yes. Sovereign deployments ship as a self-contained Kubernetes bundle with no telemetry calls home. License renewal happens via offline key exchange.
