Priced against the retainer it replaces. Not the tooling it resembles.
The right cost comparison is the labor being displaced — the agency retainer and the media-management fee indexed to ad spend. The Growth Engine is an annual engagement scaled to what the system continuously watches for you, with executed workflows metered against a committed pool. Never a share of spend, never per seat.
Generative Growth Engine — annual engagement
| Scope | Focus | Scale | Enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paid channels | 2 | 4 | Unlimited |
| Tracked query set | ~250 | ~750 | Custom |
| AI answer surfaces | 3 | 5 | All supported + regions |
| Sampling cadence | Weekly | Daily | Daily + on-demand |
| Content properties | 1 | 3 | Unlimited |
| Committed pool (weighted units/mo) | ~150 | ~500 | Custom |
| Annual platform fee Modeled | $69,000 | $111,000 | $165,000+ |
| Billed monthly at | $5,750/mo | $9,250/mo | $13,750+/mo |
One flat annual platform fee per tier. Implementation — channel and content connections, tracked-query definition, baseline measurement, allocation-model calibration — is included from signature, not billed as a distinct line.
The platform fee is billed monthly across an annual commitment.
Consumption above the committed pool is invoiced monthly at the contracted rate × class weight. No rollover.
Every tier includes all four agents, the Coordinator, the approval queue, the full audit ledger, and unlimited users. Governance is never tier-gated.
Never priced as a percentage of ad spend, never per seat, and the agents are not sold separately.
How weighted units meter the work
- THE UNIT
A billable unit is a completed, approved growth workflow, weighted by class. Drafts, retries and rejected proposals never bill.
- 1.0×
Published content asset. Highest volume, moderate cost — the base unit.
- 1.0×
Applied retrievability change. Comparable cost and cadence to a content asset.
- 3–5×
Executed budget reallocation. Cheap to produce and moves real money; a flat weight would make the highest-value action the cheapest thing sold.
- THE POOL
Your platform fee includes a committed monthly pool of weighted units sized to your tier. Consumption above it bills at the contracted rate × class weight. No rollover.
- THE SURFACE
The platform fee scales with the observability surface — connected channels, tracked queries, answer surfaces, sampling cadence and content properties — because that is what the system watches on your behalf whether or not you approve a change that week.
- NOT PRICED
Never a percentage of ad spend, never per seat, and never per agent. The product is one governed loop, not four tools.
Revenue Accelerator + Growth Engine, as one engagement.
The Revenue Accelerator ($165,000/yr) plus Growth Engine Scale runs as a single governed engagement on one audit ledger and one approval queue — a modeled $276,000 a year, the same number every year, before metered execution on either bundle. Existing Revenue Accelerator accounts add the Growth Engine as a scope amendment, not a new procurement cycle.
Who approves what
Budget reallocations, content publishes and retrievability changes are proposals until a person approves them. Measurement and modelling run continuously because they change nothing outside the system.
Human-in-the-loop (HITL). The action is drafted and held. It does not execute until a named person on your team approves it.
Human-on-the-loop (HOTL). The action executes under a standing policy your team sets. A named person supervises and keeps intervention, override, and revocation authority.
Your team chooses the mode for each action class, based on its risk tolerance, and can change it at any time.
Every action, in either mode, is recorded to the audit ledger with its rationale, before-and-after state, and the approver or policy behind it.
Every action class starts in human-in-the-loop until your team changes it.

Where the Growth Engine is on the roadmap
The Generative Growth Engine is the third PrescientIQ bundle. It is offered first to Revenue Accelerator accounts as an attach, and every engagement begins with a free AI Retrievability Baseline built on your own tracked queries.
