Certification Bands

How certification pricing scales

Certification costs mirror SOC 2, ISO, and FDA logic: they grow with scope, capability risk, human involvement, and how much the outside world will rely on the certificate.

$20K to $50K

What We Test

A single agent costs less than an entire product suite. Scope is defined together before the engagement begins.

What It Can Do

Advisory systems price lower than decision-making ones. Child-facing and autonomous systems carry the highest assurance requirements.

Human Involvement

Who Reviews It

From automated-only testing to expert review panels and full red-team exercises, deeper human judgment scales the price.

Who Relies On It

A marketing badge is priced differently from a certificate that regulators, insurers, or government buyers will rely on.

Annual subscription pricing reflects two months free versus monthly billing. Certification and Enterprise engagements are scoped individually. Read the pricing FAQ or contact us for a quote.
