Negotiated with each institution, not listed on a page.
A 2,000-student college and a 60,000-student multi-campus system are not the same engagement, and pretending they are with a per-seat price serves nobody. Here is exactly what drives the number, so you can estimate before you talk to us.
Four variables. No hidden fifth.
Enrolment band
Total enrolled students, banded rather than counted per head, so a good recruitment year does not produce an invoice surprise.
Systems to integrate
How many source systems, and how healthy they are. Two clean systems cost far less to unify than six with disputed definitions.
Research depth
Dashboards only, or termly matched-comparison efficacy studies with a named analyst. Most institutions start without and add it in year two.
Deployment & residency
Shared managed cloud in India, a dedicated tenant, or on-premises for institutions whose policy requires it.
Three shapes most institutions land on.
These are engagement shapes, not price tiers. Every one is quoted against your enrolment band and system count.
A single campus getting its data in order for the first time.
- Unified warehouse and versioned data dictionary
- Institution-fitted persistence model
- Leadership and advising dashboards
- Outreach queues with ownership
- Email support, one working day
Institutions that need to prove what works, not just see dashboards.

- Termly matched-comparison efficacy studies
- Completion and course-risk models
- Subgroup fairness reporting each refit
- Named analyst and a shared channel
- Direct warehouse access for your own SQL
Multi-campus systems, consortia, and institutions with strict residency policy.
- Everything in Impact
- Multi-campus rollup with per-campus isolation
- Dedicated tenant or on-premises deployment
- SSO and SCIM provisioning
- DPA, BAA and accreditation documentation
- Quarterly review with the research group
Every shape includes the same guarantees: we act as a data processor under your instruction, we do not sell student data, we do not pool it across institutions, and we do not use it to train models for anyone else.
Things that are not in the quote.
Stated up front, because these are the clauses that cause arguments in year two.
| Practice | Our position |
|---|---|
| Per-seat licensing for advisors | No. Adding an advisor should never be a budget decision — it is priced by enrolment band. |
| Charging for your own data export | No. Your warehouse contents are yours, exportable at any time in an open format. |
| Automatic multi-year escalators | No. Any uplift is negotiated at renewal, in writing, or it does not happen. |
| Selling anonymised benchmarks built from your data | No. We do not build a data product on top of our processor relationship. |
| Charging separately for a null efficacy result | No. A study that finds no effect costs the same as one that does, and you get it either way. |
Send us your RFP.
We answer institutional RFPs and security questionnaires directly, and we will tell you early if we are the wrong fit rather than spending three months of your committee’s time.
