Two meters, one price each, and no tiers

An account that has bought nothing is not a trial with a clock on it. There is nothing to renew and no card is asked for, and what it holds it keeps:

• One shared organisation you create yourself, with a name you choose and colleagues you invite. Your own personal workspace does not count towards it and always exists.
• Two procedures live in that organisation, and two people in it. Licences add to the second figure rather than replacing it, so the first licence you buy is a third person.
• One procedure published to a printed code for the public to read at any one time, and withdrawing it frees the place again. This one has no term at all: an organisation holding only its free place has no date on which its code stops answering.
• The demonstration, and every reader. The walkthrough needs no account, and somebody scanning a printed code never pays anything and never signs in.

These four figures are enforced by the database rather than written down in copy, and they are printed from the same functions at sop.mednais.com/how-it-works, which needs no account. If this page and that one ever disagree, that one is right.

If you are deciding whether to put your organisation's procedures somewhere, the useful question is not what it costs but what happens when an allowance runs out or a year ends. Five answers, and none of them is new policy invented for this page:

• Nobody is quoted privately. There is one price on each meter, the same for everybody, published above and shown again with your quantity and total before you press anything — not on an invoice afterwards, and not after a conversation with somebody who asked how large you are.
• A lapsed year deletes nothing, and on the private side takes nothing away. Licences running out means nobody is licensed to write and the organisation is back to what costs nothing. Everything already written stays readable, runnable and exportable; runs keep working; only creating something new is refused. The public side is the one asymmetry, and it is the thing to know before a print run: codes already printed keep answering for five days after the term ends, and then show a page naming your organisation and how to reach it instead of the procedure. Renewing brings them back. Nothing is deleted either way.
• An organisation that already exists gets at least thirty days written notice, and an export of everything it holds offered first. That is section 11 of the terms you accept when you sign in — the same clause that governs an organisation closed for non-payment — so it is already a commitment rather than an intention.
• What you write stays yours and leaves whenever you want it to, as CSV, without asking us. Equally, a record of a run cannot be quietly thinned — not by an administrator, not by the owner, and not by us. The product has no code that removes some of an organisation's history and keeps the rest.
• Nothing is sold inside the mobile apps. They draw no price and offer no purchase control, the price recorded in both app stores is free, and every purchase entry point is the web console — which is also Apple's requirement and not only our preference. Somebody holding a phone at the job is never asked for money.

What you will not find above is a table of plans, because there are no plans to tabulate — two meters that add to each other is the whole of the commercial model, and neither of them switches a feature on. Earlier versions of this page carried five-figure bands for a pilot, a department and an enterprise, and a per-seat rule of thumb of $38 to $72 a user a month. Nothing in the product could ever have accepted any of them, and we would rather say that plainly than let somebody find a cached copy and open a conversation from it.
