What the $7,500 starter includes

One approved model. One existing environment. One synchronous inference interface. It provides:

• Model and dependency inventory
• Authenticated synchronous inference interface
• One documented HTTP client example
• Agreed access and workload checks
• Versioned deployment files, tests, and operator runbook

Qualification before the fixed fee applies

• An approved model license and supportable runtime
• An approved Linux GPU environment and working drivers before implementation; sourcing is available separately
• Approved access and a named infrastructure operator
• A representative non-sensitive workload and written acceptance criteria

A separate readiness sprint is not required when these prerequisites and the scope can already be established. If a sprint is commissioned, its fee is additional.

Separate scope

• Cloud, hardware, third-party fees, and taxes
• Application integration beyond the HTTP client example
• Model release security scans, signatures, and registry promotion
• Durable queues, persistent results, and data migration
• High availability, multi-node serving, and 24/7 operations
• Post-training, clinical use, patient data, and compliance certification

Additional application paths, preprocessing, and model-specific external services are quoted separately.

Pay against a written delivery scope.

Starter payment: $3,750 at kickoff and $3,750 after acceptance. Sprint and workflow billing milestones are agreed in the written scope.

30-day correction commitment: in-scope implementation defects reported within 30 days after acceptance are corrected without another implementation fee. This covers the starter’s endpoint and HTTP example, or the workflow implementation’s agreed application connection. Review and correction periods, blocked prerequisites, cancellation, and refund terms are recorded before kickoff.

The commitment covers implementation defects, with audit outcomes, model accuracy, and ongoing availability outside its scope. Review the acceptance criteria.

Compute and release security.

Compute sourcing can be part of the $2,500 readiness sprint: one target environment and up to two provider comparisons. Provider capacity, hardware, colocation, and infrastructure charges are paid separately.

Model release security is quoted per model and runtime. Artifact scans, runtime CVE evidence, signatures, and registry promotion are not included in either implementation package by default.

Keep releases current.

$1,000–$2,500 / month, optional. Each plan specifies 4–10 business hours per month for agreed updates, release tests, and maintenance tasks. Price depends on the hours and tasks selected; response expectations are written into the plan.

Your operator owns the service outside that allowance. Maintenance excludes unlimited incidents and 24/7 on-call coverage. No Tenantplane management subscription is required.
