Whole teams and whole departments

Priced per organisation rather than per person, because a lab's membership changes every semester and an engineering team should not have to buy a seat before it can hand a mission to somebody. Nobody counts logins. Every user gets the complete tool and 100 analyses a day.

Licence	Per year
Team: up to 10 users in one company, commercial use, includes everything in Commercial	$1,900
Academic department: unlimited users on one verified e-mail domain, non-commercial	$990
More than 10 commercial users, or a whole institution	On quotation

What each plan includes

Every plan runs the same propagator, the same atmosphere, the same space-weather data and the same validated models, and every plan receives every result. There is no reduced engine on the free plan and no result withheld from it. Read the two columns below and notice how far you get before they differ: what a paid plan buys is taking the work out of the tool, keeping more of it, and running more often.

Questions

Are the free results less accurate?: No. A free run uses the same propagator, the same atmosphere model, the same measured space-weather data and the same validated code a paid run uses, and it now returns the same results. There is no reduced engine and no withheld number.
How do I know whether it suits my mission before paying?: Run your own spacecraft on the free plan, look at every result the tool produces, and compare them against whatever you already trust.
Which plan do I need?: If you are enrolled at a university, Student, and it costs nothing for as long as you keep verifying it. If your results go into a commercial product, a customer deliverable or a funded proposal, that is Commercial, or Team if more than two of you need it. Otherwise, Professional.
What happens if I cancel?: Your account drops back to the free plan at the end of the term you paid for. Nothing is deleted, nothing stops computing: your saved missions stay and every result keeps being produced. What stops is exporting them, and saving a new mission while you hold more than the free plan keeps. See the Refund & Cancellation Policy.
Can I buy for a whole class or department?: Yes, that is the academic department licence above: one flat price, every user on your e-mail domain, and nobody counting seats. It can be paid by card or invoiced against a purchase order.

Prices are in US dollars and exclusive of taxes unless stated otherwise at checkout. The plans, their eligibility conditions and their prices are those published here at the time you subscribe.
