Are AI agent plans hard to compare because the subscription price doesn’t show what it may cost to get a useful workflow running? That confusion is understandable. A platform subscription, setup, training, and ongoing support are separate costs, and not every business needs all of them.
Here’s a plain-English breakdown of the current prices published on the AI agent plans page, what each path includes, and what a business should consider before choosing.
1. Separate the Platform Subscription from Setup
The subscription covers access to the platform, not necessarily implementation
The published annual plans cover AI agent team usage. They include all seven listed agents, while the monthly usage allowance differs by plan.
| Published annual plan | Monthly usage allowance | Annual subscription price |
|---|---|---|
| 50 hours per month | 50 hours | $288 per year |
| 70 hours per month | 70 hours | $396 per year |
| 100 hours per month | 100 hours | $540 per year |
The 50-hour plan works out to $24 per month when billed annually. The 70-hour plan is $33 per month, and the 100-hour plan is $45 per month. These are annual subscription prices, not month-to-month totals. Usage beyond the included hours may cost more, so the checkout terms and current allowance matter.
The plans page also describes an additional 10% off the discounted subscription price through the partner offer. The final price and eligibility should be checked at checkout rather than assumed from a calculation.
All agents are included — along with multilingual support, team chat and multiple workspaces
The published plans include all seven agents. A business can therefore consider which work it wants to address without treating each listed agent as a separate subscription.
What often surprises owners is how much else sits inside the same subscription. The agents speak many languages, so your team can serve customers in their own language rather than translating everything into English first. Team chat comes included as well — one unified room instead of scattered emails and separate chat threads. You decide who enters, adding the colleagues and agents each project needs, so conversations about a project, its hand-offs and its results all happen in the same place. And the subscription covers multiple workspaces, so one account can serve more than one purpose without everything piling into a single space.
That flexibility matters more as agent use grows. An owner might begin with inbox support or lead follow-up, then consider additional workflows once the first one has been set up and reviewed.
One subscription can cover more than one business or division
Multiple workspaces are not just a filing convenience. They let you keep different parts of your working life cleanly separated while paying for one platform subscription.
Practical examples:
- Run a second business in its own workspace, with its own agents and its own instructions.
- Divide a larger company by division or department, so each team's agents work from that team's context.
- Separate a new brand or product launch from the main brand's workflows.
- Keep client work apart from your own operations, one workspace per client.
- Isolate a pilot project or experiment before deciding whether to roll it out.
- Give a family business and its holding company their own spaces without cross-contamination.
Each workspace carries its own setup, so the agents in one space don't inherit the tasks of another. That keeps instructions focused and makes review easier, because everything an agent does belongs to the business or division it was set up for.
The self-serve path includes onboarding calls
A business that prefers to manage its own setup can choose the self-serve option through the partner link. It includes four complimentary 30-minute onboarding calls, subject to the signup terms. ZOOTmarketing earns a small commission on qualifying sign-ups through this partner link.
2. Add Setup or Support Only If the Business Needs It
Implementation services are separate from the subscription
A platform account and a working business process are not the same thing. An agent may need context, connected tools, instructions, permissions, testing, and a clear point for human review.
The published service options separate this work from the platform subscription:
- Setup and build: starts at $1,250.
- Build + training + support: starts at $2,250.
- Ongoing support: retainers start at $1,000 per month.
These are starting prices for services, not additional platform subscription rates. A fixed quote is provided after a free onboarding call, with no obligation to accept it. The scope depends on the selected work and the business’s needs.
A business can choose its level of help
Self-serve may suit an owner who wants to configure the workflow and manage it independently. Setup and build may fit a business that has chosen a clear first task but needs help getting it into use. The build, training, and support option adds guidance for the team as it learns to direct and review the workflow.
Ongoing support is a separate choice for businesses that want continued help tuning and managing their setup. It is not automatically required just because an agent is in use.

3. Estimate the First-Year Cost in Plain English
Combine the subscription with the service path
A simple first-year estimate can make the choices easier to compare. Using the published entry subscription price of $288 per year:
- Self-serve: $288 for the annual subscription, before any costs for usage beyond the allowance.
- Setup and build: starts at $1,250 for services, plus $288 for the subscription, $1,538 at the published starting prices.
- Build + training + support: starts at $2,250 for services, plus $288 for the subscription, $2,538 at the published starting prices.
- Ongoing support: retainers start at $1,000 per month, in addition to the platform subscription; the full scope and quote should be confirmed.
These are straightforward illustrations using listed starting prices, not custom quotes. The service price, subscription terms, extra usage, and any applicable partner discount should all be checked before committing.
A lower subscription price may not be the lowest total cost
An owner who configures everything alone may spend more staff time learning the platform, setting up access, testing outputs, and correcting early mistakes. That may still be the right choice, but the time has value and belongs in the comparison.
Likewise, a guided setup costs more upfront but may make it easier to define a useful first workflow and establish appropriate review steps. The better comparison is not “subscription versus service fee.” It is the total cost of getting a workflow into use and keeping it useful.
4. Account for the Costs That Can Be Easy to Miss
Usage and human review affect the real budget
Before choosing a plan, estimate how often the selected workflow will run and who will check its work. A draft that needs several minutes of editing each time can shift work rather than reduce it. A workflow that handles sensitive information may need more frequent review or a clear escalation route.
A practical monthly estimate includes:
- Platform subscription.
- Any usage beyond the plan allowance.
- Setup, training, or ongoing support, if selected.
- Staff time for review, correction, and exceptions.
- Time spent maintaining instructions and connected workflows.
The AI Agents page explains examples of business tasks and support options. For a broader look at the economics of agent workflows, see McKinsey’s guide to where AI agents pay off.
Measure a completed task, not just activity
A business can compare the new workflow with the current process by tracking time spent, how often the output needs correction, and whether the task is completed to the required standard.
For example, an agent that drafts replies may be useful if the team can review them quickly and respond consistently. If each draft requires extensive rewriting, the instructions or workflow may need improvement before the business expands its use.
5. Choose a Plan Around the First Useful Workflow
Start with a clear job and a sensible level of support
The most practical starting point is one recurring task with a clear input and expected result. From there, a business can decide whether to manage setup itself, get help building the workflow, add team training, or consider ongoing support.
A clear sequence reduces guesswork:
- Identify the task.
- Estimate its monthly volume.
- Choose a plan allowance.
- Decide who will configure and review the workflow.
- Reassess usage and results before expanding.
If the choice is unclear, David Speyer can walk through the options as the business’s strategist, helping clarify which workflow to address first and what to improve next. A free onboarding call is available to discuss the options and scope.
