Pricing

Four ways to use Aurais bots. Start free with bring-your-own-key. Upgrade to hosted monthly when it opens. Pick up a numbered serial when you want to actually own a copy.

Four surfaces

BYOK — Free

LIVE

Paste your Anthropic API key on a /try page. Unlimited runs. Every result comes with a signed proof chain. No signup, no credit card.

Best on-ramp. You pay Anthropic at their rates (~$0.01–0.05 per run). We charge nothing.

Hosted monthly

SOON

We cover the LLM cost. Log into your Aurais account, run as often as you like on bots you subscribe to. Proof chains archived, accessible any time.

Per-bot prices below. Bundle discount on all personal bots together: $29/mo.

Pay-per-call

SOON

Metered usage. Pay per run with a stored card. Proof-chain receipt emailed. Nothing recurring.

For irregular users. Run a bot once in a while without committing to a month.

Limited series

OPENING SOON

25, 50, or 100 numbered copies of each bot depending on specialization. Buy a serial once. Yours to keep, yours to transfer. Runs on Aurais or any BASIS-compatible runtime.

Your serial number appears in every proof chain. Series A prices below — later series may price higher as each sells out.

When a series sells out, the next series opens — potentially at a different price. Early buyers are grandfathered to the price they paid, with no upgrade fees. Version bumps (v1.1, v2.0) are new editions; Series A holders get first right of refusal at a reduced price on the next edition of the same bot.

Where your bot can run (portability)

Every Aurais bot carries an AgentAnchor (A3I) signed manifest, a CAR ID, and a signing-key reference. Each certificate is designed to anchor in the public A3I registry so any buyer can independently verify what was certified. When you buy a series copy, you can run it in any of these environments — the proof chain is signed the same way wherever it runs:

FAQ

If I buy a serial, can I run the bot without Aurais?+
Yes. Every serial-holder gets a portable bundle — the signed manifest + bot code packaged for the runtime of your choice. Run it on Claude Desktop via MCP, in your own CLI, or integrated into LangGraph/CrewAI. You'll still need an LLM API key (yours) unless you're using Aurais hosting. Your serial number appears in every proof chain regardless of where the bot runs.
What happens when a series sells out?+
The next series opens. Price may go up; previous-series holders are grandfathered at their purchase price. Serial numbers are globally unique across series (so #042/100 Series A and #042/100 Series B are distinct objects).
Can I upgrade or trade in?+
No trade-in. Each serial is yours to keep indefinitely, or to transfer privately to another party. We do not operate a buyback or trade-in program. Version bumps (v1.1, v2.0) are new editions — Series A holders get first right of refusal at a reduced price on the next edition of the same bot.
Why limited numbers at all?+
Two reasons. First, scarcity signals — owning a numbered serial of a Vorion-certified bot is a provable status object. Second, development focus — we iterate and improve the bot between series, so a Series B buyer gets a better product, and a Series A buyer has the earliest vintage.
Is there a free tier besides BYOK?+
We're adding a demo pool (Aurais-paid, rate-limited, no account required — 5 runs/day per IP) so you can try without even an Anthropic key. Weekly drawings for a free week of hosted access are also on the roadmap.
Do you take any cut of what I save or earn with a bot?+
No. Flat subscriptions, flat per-call, flat one-time. No performance fees, no AUM fees, no output-based billing. You run the bot; you own the outcomes.
