Plans
| Plan | Price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 Agent Scalar credits, 1 editor seat |
| Pro | $72/month | 500 Agent Scalar credits, unlimited editor seats |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom usage |
The Free plan at $0 covers 50 Agent Scalar credits, 1 editor seat, which is where an agent would start. The top plan (Enterprise) is quoted rather than listed, so anything at that volume goes through a person.
Can an agent buy this on its own?
A price is only half the question. The other half is whether software can get from landing on the site to making a paid call without a person, which is what the AgentReady measures under adopt.
For Scalar, it can create an account itself; API credentials can be created over the API.
Against that, a sales call gates access; the signup flow assumes a human at a browser. Each of those is a point where an unattended run stops and waits for a human.
That works out to 80/100 on adopt, against 83/100 overall.
What you are paying for
