Pricing

Pricing shaped around the system you operate.

Every Cruuvo system is tailored. Price reflects the outcomes, capabilities, execution placement, evaluation, usage, and operating responsibility required—not a product tier or level of tailoring.

Core
Managed cloud
NW Agentic-operated execution boundary
Placement: dedicated managed-cloud execution without infrastructure for your team to administer.
  • System taught from your operation
  • Cruuvo operator workspace
  • Per-firm budget cap + audit log
  • Standard integrations (CRM, email, docs, storage)
  • Email support, business hours
  • Cancel anytime
Forge
Mixed boundaries
Coordinated managed and private execution
Placement: one system whose capabilities must run across more than one trust boundary.
  • System teaching and compilation
  • Tailored integrations to your existing tools
  • Evaluation suite scored before production
  • Configurable human-review gates
  • Same platform safety net as Core
  • Direct engineering line
Private Edge
Private local
NW Agentic-managed private infrastructure
Placement: systems whose data, credentials, retrieval, or actions must remain inside your boundary.
  • Secure on-prem appliance, NWA-managed
  • Local RAG (pgvector) — no documents leave the firm
  • Outbound-only mTLS to control plane
  • Self-healing 5-stage recovery
  • Tailored system design, like Forge
  • Direct engineering line
Model strategy

Choose the cost and privacy boundary. Cruuvo chooses the model.

You do not need to compare model names. Choose how much capability the work needs and whether providers may use customer inputs for model improvement; Cruuvo routes each step within that boundary.

Comparison of Cruuvo AI model pricing and privacy strategies.
Strategy Relative cost Model selection Customer inputs used for provider training Best for
Open Weight $ Cost-efficient open-weight models Allowed under provider terms Routine extraction, classification, summarization, and drafting
Frontier $$$$ Highest-capability private models Not allowed The hardest reasoning and highest-consequence work

“Allowed” means a selected provider’s terms may permit customer inputs to be used for model improvement. “Not allowed” means Cruuvo selects eligible services whose terms exclude customer inputs from provider training.

FAQ

Common questions about pricing.

What determines the price?

The system’s outcomes, capabilities, integrations, execution boundaries, evaluation requirements, usage, and operating responsibility. We define those together before you commit.

Are Core, Forge, and Edge separate plans?

No. They are execution-placement profiles inside Cruuvo. Every system gets the same controls, evaluation, evidence, and improvement model.

How is AI model usage billed?

AI usage is billed at Cruuvo’s published model-tier rate. The rate includes model inference and the infrastructure required to run it reliably—routing, networking, security, observability, retries, and capacity.

You choose one of four strategies: Open Weight ($), Smart Router — Open ($$), Smart Router — Private ($$$), or Frontier ($$$$). Smart Router automatically balances quality and price within the training-use boundary you select.

Every run records the model used, usage is visible in the Cruuvo workspace, and explicit run and account budgets stop work before silent overspend.

Can placement change as requirements change?

Yes. System definitions are portable and versioned. A reviewed release can change placement without turning Core, Forge, or Edge into different product objects.

Where is my data stored?

Core runs in NW Agentic-managed cloud. Forge coordinates managed and private execution according to each capability’s declared boundary.

On Edge, data is stored on the on-prem appliance at your premises. Only retrieved chunks ever cross the network boundary; full documents stay on-node.

Is my data portable?

Yes. Audit logs and account data are exportable. Workflow definitions are portable across placements — a Forge workflow can move to Private Edge without rewriting the workflow.

Are budgets enforced at runtime?

Yes. Runs have explicit budgets, deadlines, and retry limits. The runtime checks authority and available budget before model calls and external effects.

Are there volume discounts?

Talk to us. For multi-system or multi-site operations, we structure pricing around shared capabilities, placement, and operating load.

Price the system, not an agent seat.

We’ll map outcomes, capabilities, placement, evaluation, and run-rate so the commercial model matches the operation.
