Pricing

Read the price. Decide.

Three tiers, published in full. Bring your own AI key by default. No "contact us" on anything below enterprise. No hidden add-ons. Card captured at signup but not charged until your first successful AI call.

Anchored on what your compliance actually costs you (auditor day rates, $1,500-$3,000), not on the platform you might already pay for.

Total cost

One new line on your invoice. That is the count.

Most prospects expect three new charges. The honest count is one: Kanonik. Your AI subscription stays where it was. Your existing GRC, if you keep it, stays where it was. Breakeven is roughly four auditor days per year against a typical $1,500-$3,000 rate. Everything beyond that is your team's saved time and your CFO's saved budget.

Kanonik (Team tier)
$699 / month. The one new charge. Verifier, audit chain, canonical record, the Verifier's internal LLM cost: all in. Card not charged until your first successful AI call.
Your existing AI subscription
Unchanged. Use the Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Bedrock, or Azure OpenAI account you already have. Your AI provider stays your direct contractor; we never see your conversations.
Your existing GRC platform (if any)
Unchanged for as long as you keep it. Eramba is free; other platform contracts are unaffected. We do not require you to retire them; for our target customers, you can.

Bring your own model

The AI you already pay for. No metering, no markup.

Kanonik is model-agnostic. Connect the AI subscription you already have - Claude, OpenAI, Bedrock, Gemini, or Azure OpenAI - and it works. We do not sell you an AI license, we do not meter your usage, and we never see your conversations.

Two pieces of AI cost sit on different invoices. Your primary AI session goes to your AI provider directly. The Verifier's internal tier-2 cross-check runs on Kanonik's own account, internal to the validation step. Sub-processor disclosed in the DPA.

Single-invoice procurement option. If your procurement requires routing all AI spend through one vendor, the Kanonik-paid Primary AI add-on lets your primary-session usage flow through our account too. One invoice. Most CISOs skip this because they already have a model-provider account.

Solo
BYO key by default. Single-invoice add-on: +$25 / month.
Team
BYO key by default. Single-invoice add-on: +$75 / month.
Business
BYO key by default. Single-invoice add-on: +$150 / month.

Verifier quality is identical either way. The add-on is a procurement option, not a premium tier.

vCISO and MSP

A tier per client. Their tenant, their isolation.

vCISOs and managed-service providers run each end-customer on their own Kanonik tier (Solo, Team, or Business), in their own isolated tenant, managed from inside the client's tenant. If you run a practice across multiple end-customers, write to [email protected] to discuss terms. See for consultants for the full consultant-side framing.

Frequently asked

The questions we get most.

Can I start on Solo and upgrade later?
Yes. Mid-cycle upgrade is self-serve from the dashboard with proration. Downgrades take effect at the next billing cycle.
Why anchor pricing on auditor day rates instead of the platform fee?
Because that is what the customer is actually trading off. Adding Kanonik makes the audit cycle measurably shorter and the findings list measurably shorter. Both are denominated in auditor days. We would rather you compare $699 per month against the day of fieldwork it replaces, not against an incumbent platform's entry price.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
The audit log is preserved according to your retention policy. Source-of-truth data is exportable on request. After your confirmation, we crypto-erase your encryption keys. Your encrypted data becomes unrecoverable. The audit-log chain still verifies; the content becomes unreadable.
Can I bring my own model account?
Yes. Bring-your-own-model is the default: Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock, Gemini, or Azure OpenAI. You operate your own model account; we never see your conversations. The Verifier's internal tier-2 cross-check runs on Kanonik's account, not yours.
Do you offer non-profit or educational discounts?
Talk to us. We are early enough that case-by-case discussion is reasonable.
When do prices become final?
Early customers are price-protected for twelve months at the tier they sign for, regardless of any pricing change we announce later. The tiers on this page are anchored. We may adjust them based on early-customer feedback, but customers who sign during this period keep their rate.
What if I want a tier that does not exist on this page?
Talk to us. The published tiers cover the common cases; we are open to discussing variations with serious buyers.

For pricing discussions, custom tiers, vCISO/MSP arrangements, or anything else this page does not answer: [email protected].
