## Plans

| Plan | Cost | What you get | Best for |
|------|------|--------------|----------|
| Pay As You Go | $50 / Job | Hire Scout for one Job: AI Visibility, Site Audit, Local GEO, or Strategy | Try Scout on a real question. One-time research. |
| Pro | $100 / month | Keep Scout on staff for one brand. Three Jobs / month + weekly Monitoring on three personas | A small business doing ongoing work on one brand. |
| Portfolio | $500 / month | Keep Scout on staff for unlimited brands. Unlimited Jobs + weekly Monitoring on every brand | Agencies serving multiple clients. Founders running multiple companies. |

## How to think about it

Pay As You Go is the contractor model. You hire Scout for one Job. Scout does the Job and hands you the report. Done.

Pro and Portfolio are the retainer model. You keep Scout on staff. Scout runs Jobs on demand and watches your brand week to week. The retainer pays for itself the second Scout catches something a contractor would have missed.

## What counts as a Job

A Job is one finished report. Examples:

- One **AI Visibility** report for one brand (one customer profile, persona by persona, all seven AI platforms).
- One **Site Audit** report for one website.
- One **Local GEO** triage plan for one brand.
- One **Strategy** report answering one business question.

Monitoring isn't a Job. It's the weekly watch Scout runs in the background on Pro and Portfolio. 84 conversations Scout has on your behalf every month.

## What's included with every plan

- Every Surmado Job: AI Visibility, Site Audit, Local GEO, Strategy.
- Scout. The agent that runs the work and explains the findings.
- PDF, slide deck, and structured JSON deliverables for every Job.
- API access via the Jobs [API](/api/).
- 7-day money-back guarantee.

## Surmado Sites pricing

Sites pricing depends on the site. Migration scope varies, hosting tier varies. Scout gives a quote on intake. See [Surmado Sites](/sites/) to start.

## Surmado Code Review pricing

Surmado Code Review is a separate product line for engineering teams on GitHub.

| Plan | Cost | Includes |
|------|------|----------|
| Free | $0 | 10 PRs / month. No credit card. |
| Standard | $15 / month | 100 PRs / month. Per-team, not per-seat. Zero data retention. |

7-day money-back guarantee. Cancel anytime.

## How Surmado prices differ from the alternatives

- **vs. enterprise SEO platforms (Ahrefs, Semrush, Conductor):** they price per seat with annual commits. Surmado prices per Job or per brand with monthly cancel-anytime.
- **vs. AI visibility startups (per-seat SaaS):** they treat every team member as a license. Surmado treats every brand as the unit. Agencies pay per portfolio, not per analyst.
- **vs. asking ChatGPT directly:** ChatGPT is free for one perspective on one prompt. Surmado is $50 for a full Job with the methodology to back it.
- **vs. an agency engagement:** an agency audit is $2k-$10k and weeks of time. Surmado is $50 and about 15 minutes. Use Surmado as the first pass before deciding what's worth handing to an agency.

## Common questions

**Is there a free trial?**
No free trial. Every plan has a 7-day money-back guarantee. If the work doesn't deliver value, request a refund.

**What's the demo?**
A live walkthrough Scout runs for you with no signup. Visit [try.surmado.com](https://try.surmado.com).

**Can my whole team use it?**
Yes. Pricing is per brand on Pro and Portfolio, not per seat. Everyone on your team can access reports for the brands on your account.

**Do you offer enterprise pricing?**
Not currently. Surmado is built for small teams.

**Can I switch plans?**
Any time. Upgrade or downgrade between Pay As You Go, Pro, and Portfolio with no penalty.
