Pricing Questions

How does the percentage pricing model work?

+
Governance and AI Observability are 2.5% of your annual cloud spend. Full Stack is 4%. If your cloud spend is $500K/year, Governance costs $12.5K. If it's $1M on Full Stack, you pay $40K. ATO & CMMC is a standalone plan at $25K/year. Pricing scales with your environment, billed annually.

What's included in the Free Trial?

+
The 14-day free trial gives you full platform access on one cloud account. You can connect AWS, Azure, or GCP and run a complete compliance scan against CMMC, NIST 800-171, CIS Benchmarks, and SOC 2. No credit card required, no sales call required to start.

How does Full Stack compare to buying separate tools?

+
Stacking Wiz ($75K), Vanta ($30K), and an AI governance platform ($70K–$500K+) totals $175K–$605K/year before any observability tooling. PolicyCortex Full Stack at 4% of cloud spend delivers equivalent governance + AI observability + full observability — saving most organizations 52–85% and eliminating three separate vendor relationships.

Is ATO & CMMC a separate plan?

+
Yes. ATO & CMMC is a standalone plan at $25K/year — it is not an add-on to any other plan and not bundled into Full Stack. It provides dedicated federal authorization support including CMMC Level 2 documentation, FedRAMP continuous monitoring, ATO package generation (IL2–IL5), and C3PAO assessment readiness.

Can federal agencies purchase without a competitive bid?

+
Yes. For many small-to-mid cloud environments, 2.5% of cloud spend falls under the $15,000 federal micro-purchase threshold. A $500K cloud environment costs $12.5K/year — well under the threshold. Federal agencies can purchase with a Government Purchase Card — no competitive bidding, no formal RFQ, and procurement completes in days rather than months.

Can I upgrade between plans?

+
Yes. You can move from Governance to Full Stack as your requirements evolve. Our team handles migrations with zero downtime. Start with the free trial, grow into Governance, scale to Full Stack.
