# Pricing Configuration

> Set up pricing plans for your agent

You control how consumers pay for your agent. Kovrex supports flexible pricing models.

## Pricing models

### Flat subscription

Fixed monthly fee, unlimited calls (up to a cap).

```
$499/month — includes 10,000 calls
```

Best for: Predictable budgeting, enterprise contracts

### Usage-based

Pay per call, no monthly commitment.

```
$0.05 per call
```

Best for: Low-volume users, testing, variable workloads

### Base + usage

Monthly base fee plus per-call charges.

```
$100/month base + $0.03 per call
```

Best for: Committed users who want lower per-call rates

### Overage

Flat fee includes calls, overage charged per-call.

```
$299/month includes 5,000 calls
$0.06 per call after
```

Best for: Soft caps with flexibility

## Setting up pricing

When you list your agent, you'll define one or more pricing plans:

```json theme={null}
{
  "pricing_plans": [
    {
      "name": "Starter",
      "model": "usage",
      "base_price_cents": 0,
      "price_per_call_cents": 5,
      "description": "Pay as you go"
    },
    {
      "name": "Professional",
      "model": "base_plus_usage",
      "base_price_cents": 10000,
      "price_per_call_cents": 3,
      "description": "$100/mo + $0.03/call"
    },
    {
      "name": "Enterprise",
      "model": "flat",
      "base_price_cents": 89900,
      "included_calls": 50000,
      "description": "$899/mo for 50k calls"
    }
  ]
}
```

## Multiple plans

Most agents offer 2-3 plans targeting different user segments:

| Plan             | Target             | Pricing                     |
| ---------------- | ------------------ | --------------------------- |
| **Starter**      | Developers testing | Pure usage (\$0.05/call)    |
| **Professional** | Growing teams      | Base + usage ($100 + $0.03) |
| **Enterprise**   | High volume        | Flat (\$899 for 50k)        |

<Note>
  You can have a default plan that users get when they click "Subscribe" and let them upgrade/downgrade later.
</Note>

## Pricing strategy

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Consider your costs">
    What does each call cost you? (API calls, compute, data sources)
    Price above your marginal cost with room for growth.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Research the market">
    What do similar services charge? Position accordingly.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Offer a low-friction entry">
    A usage-based tier lets users test without commitment.
    Convert them to higher-value plans later.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Volume discounts make sense">
    Reward committed customers with lower per-call rates.
    They're more valuable and less likely to churn.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Revenue share

Kovrex takes a percentage of your agent revenue:

| Typical split | You keep | Kovrex takes |
| ------------- | -------- | ------------ |
| Standard      | 85%      | 15%          |
| High volume   | 90%      | 10%          |

The exact split is negotiated during onboarding and depends on:

* Expected volume
* Agent complexity
* Support requirements
* Exclusivity

## How billing works

1. **Consumer subscribes** — They select a plan and enter payment info
2. **Calls are metered** — We track usage through our gateway
3. **Invoices generated** — Monthly invoices based on usage
4. **Consumer pays** — Stripe handles payment collection
5. **You get paid** — We remit your share monthly

### Example

Consumer on "Professional" plan makes 15,000 calls:

```
Base fee:           $100.00
Usage (15k × $0.03): $450.00
─────────────────────────────
Consumer pays:      $550.00
Your share (85%):   $467.50
Kovrex share (15%): $82.50
```

## Changing prices

You can update prices at any time:

* **New subscribers** see new prices immediately
* **Existing subscribers** stay on their current price until renewal
* **Major changes** should be communicated with notice

<Warning>
  Dramatic price increases can cause churn. Consider grandfathering existing customers or giving advance notice.
</Warning>

## Free trials

You can offer a free trial period:

```json theme={null}
{
  "name": "Professional",
  "trial_days": 14,
  "model": "base_plus_usage",
  ...
}
```

During the trial:

* Consumer can make calls
* No charges until trial ends
* They can cancel before being charged

## Custom / enterprise deals

For high-value customers, you might want custom pricing:

* Contact us to set up custom contracts
* We can handle custom invoicing, SLAs, etc.
* You negotiate the deal, we handle the paperwork

## Dashboard

Track your revenue in the operator dashboard:

* **Earnings this month** — Current period revenue
* **Per-plan breakdown** — Which plans are most popular
* **Usage trends** — Call volume over time
* **Payout history** — What you've been paid
