Simple, transparent pricing. Own the crew outright.
Start with a pilot, scale to the full box. The same ladder applies to whichever fleet you run. Every figure is ⚗️ provisional, pending pilots — and every rung below the box credits toward owning it outright. No hidden fees, no forced subscription.

While you’re on the managed plan you’re hosted, so the data-on-your-network and Helm-survivability promises don’t fully apply yet — they begin at physical delivery. You stay hosted and the box ships when you’ve paid it off, so there’s nothing to repossess.
| What you feel | Owned box | Rented / hosted |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Pay once (~$8,500 ⚗️ + your own API fuel ~$75/mo ⚗️) | Recurring monthly — reported $79–$3,500/mo, forever [inferred] |
| Who owns the hardware | You — a Mac mini titled to you in a bill of sale | The vendor's cloud; you own nothing |
| Where the data lives | Your own Tailscale network / LAN — logs, contacts, invoices stay on the box | The vendor's servers, in the vendor's region |
| If the vendor disappears | The box keeps working — it degrades to a still-running local machine | The service stops; data export is at the vendor's mercy |
| Lock-in / migration cost | None — you already hold the machine and the data | High — cancelling means migrating everything off |
| Customization | Fixed v1 roster, owner-modifiable on your own box | Vendor-gated feature tiers |
