Pricing FAQ

Quick answer: AKA Studio has tiered plans from self-serve to custom Enterprise, priced by team size, modules and deployment. Most teams start with a pilot; book a demo for a tailored quote.

How much does AKA Studio cost?

AKA Studio is offered in tiered plans, from a self-serve plan up to a fully custom Enterprise plan. Pricing depends on your team size, the modules you use (Knowledge, Workbench and Sensory) and your deployment (fully isolated cloud or on-premise). Book a demo for a tailored quote.

Is there a free trial or pilot?

Rather than a limited free trial, we run a structured pilot so your team can prove value on your own data and workflows before committing. Ask about a pilot when you book a demo.

How is AKA Studio priced?

Pricing is based on your plan tier, the modules you enable and your deployment option, with add-ons such as expert data prep and formulation support. Enterprise plans add custom integrations (ERP, LIMS, CRM) and security and compliance reviews.

Do you offer on-premise or air-gapped deployment?

Yes. On-premise and air-gapped deployment are available on the Enterprise plan for teams with the strictest security requirements, alongside the default fully isolated cloud.

Is my data used to train AI models?

No. Your data is never shared or used for model training, and each customer retains full ownership of its data. AKA Studio is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified.
