Keep your stack.
Add the intelligence layer.
Run DataKnobs and EKIP with Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and your approved LLM providers. Infrastructure costs are paid directly to providers, while DataKnobs handles pricing for intelligence, controls, and Data Products on top of them.
Simple to buy. Predictable to operate.
Pricing separates one-time activation from the ongoing platform used to govern, evaluate, monitor, and optimize production intelligence.
Activate
Explore knobs, link sources, set up controls, test, and deploy every Data Product.
One-time feeSubscribe
License the EKIP intelligence, governance, evaluation, monitoring, and optimization platform.
Annual subscriptionOperate
Leverage your current cloud, warehouse, lakehouse, and LLM agreements to handle the workloads.
Paid directly by customerExpand
As value grows, add Data Products, expand Knob capacity, introduce more environments, broaden connectors, or upgrade support.
Pre-agreed pricingPrice by production intelligence—not seats or tokens.
Plans primarily rely on active production Data Products and utilize customer-owned cloud, data, and LLM infrastructure in all cases.

Common commercial questions.
What is the purpose of paying a platform fee when we are the ones supplying the infrastructure?
The infrastructure handles workloads, but it does not generate or control intelligence. The DataKnobs subscription includes reusable Knobs, management of Data Products, lineage tracking, evaluation, controls, monitoring, experimentation, and optimization.
Who pays for LLM and cloud usage?
The customer directly engages and compensates their selected cloud, data platform, and model providers, allowing them to maintain current enterprise discounts, security measures, budget allocations, and procurement connections.
Does DataKnobs charge per user or EKIP agent?
Pricing is primarily determined by production Data Products and the governed intelligence layer, allowing people, copilots, applications, and EKIP agents to access approved Data Products without incurring additional fees.
What counts as one AI Data Product?
An AI Data Product is a well-managed, ready-for-use intelligence tool with a specific business goal, designated owners, source limits, quality controls, and lifecycle. Data Products with different output contracts or from unrelated areas are considered distinct entities.
Why is activation priced separately?
Activation includes discovery, integration, configuration, testing, and production launch. By excluding subscription pricing, the implementation scope is clear and the recurring fee accurately reflects the platform's ongoing value.
Can DataKnobs also provide managed infrastructure?
Yes. When a customer prefers not to manage cloud, data platform, or model accounts, DataKnobs can provide a separately priced managed deployment.
Are these prices final?
Prices are approximate and subject to change based on deployment setup, integration requirements, environments, security measures, compliance standards, support level, and the complexity of production Data Products.
