Questions that change the quote
| Question | Why it moves price |
|---|---|
| How is the platform priced — records, active users, or modules? | Record-based pricing grows with your database, not your usage. |
| Which integrations are included versus billed as services? | SIS and CRM connectors are the most common source of overrun. |
| What does year-two look like after any launch discount? | Uplift caps are negotiable at signature and rarely afterwards. |
| Who owns the data model if you leave? | Export format and cost decide how real your exit is. |
Listings are being onboarded. Vendor profiles and side-by-side comparisons publish as each is verified — we list a platform only once its pricing model and integration surface have been checked against primary documentation.
