Questions about pricing.
Can we try before we commit?
Yes. The pilot month at 50% is designed for exactly this. You'll receive a full intelligence brief for your company in the first week. If it doesn't demonstrate clear value over your existing sources, you walk away.
We already have Gartner. Why would we pay more?
Gartner charges £24,000+ for a seat that gives you the same report as every other subscriber. Machine Earth's intelligence is written for your company, your departments, your KPIs. It's a different category of intelligence — and at £36,000/year, the premium over Gartner is modest for categorically more specific output.
Does this require a long-term contract?
No. Intelligence subscriptions are available monthly with no long-term commitment. Annual prepayment gives you a 15-17% discount. Multi-year agreements offer an additional 10%.
Can we start with intelligence and add operators later?
That's how most clients start. The intelligence subscription is the entry point. As findings surface that require action, operator engagements follow naturally. There's no pressure to commit to more than intelligence at the start.
Does the standard subscription fall below typical procurement thresholds?
At £36,000/year, Standard typically falls below the threshold that triggers formal procurement for most enterprises. If it does require approval, we'll provide an ROI framework and reference clients to support the business case.
