ARTIFACT PRICING STUDIO

The dashboard is the delivery surface. The receipt is the product. The Evidence Room is the monetization event. The reviewer packet is the premium. The archive is the recurring revenue.

Do not price these seven companies like ordinary SaaS. The pricing unit is not the software account — it is the verified artifact package that reduces uncertainty for a reviewer.

The workspace creates usage. The artifact event captures value. The money is in the moment when someone needs to prove something consequential.
