Announcing Public Pricing and Credit-Based Licensing for MetriCal

MetriCal, Tangram Vision’s world-class multi-modal calibration suite, has moved to credit-based self-serve pricing. Download the software, run it locally, and pay only for successful calibrations. No more sales cycles. No forced demo calls. No more guessing whether it'll work for your sensors. Get results in hours, not weeks.

You can start using MetriCal today. Download it, claim your free 15-credit trial, and run your first calibrations without entering payment information.

How Credit-Based Pricing Works

The mechanics are straightforward. Every calibration costs 3 base credits, plus 1 additional credit per sensor modality beyond the first. A camera-only calibration costs 3 credits. Add LiDAR to a run, and it's 4 credits total. Camera, LiDAR, and IMU is 5 credits, etc etc.

Here's the cool part: credits only deduct when calibrations succeed. MetriCal analyzes both your results and data quality, checking for high-risk diagnostics that indicate problems with your data capture. If a calibration fails or throws warning flags, you don't pay. You're not burning budget while you debug bad datasets or refine your collection process.

Credits live at the organization level, not per-user or per-machine. Your entire team can run MetriCal across multiple systems without seat restrictions. Deploy it on your development workstations, your production line, or your field test rigs; the credits pool across all of them. This removes the artificial constraints that come with traditional per-seat licensing and lets you use the software where you actually need it.

Software That Grows With You

Once you've validated that MetriCal works for your sensors, choose the pricing path that fits your workflow. Credit bundles (\$249 for 15 credits, 3-month rollover) work well for occasional needs; subscriptions (starting \$999/month for 75 credits, 6-month rollover, automatic overages) make sense for ongoing development. Enterprise removes credit constraints entirely for teams running high-volume production lines or needing offline deployment.

Ultimately, you decide. There's no sales gatekeeping, no negotiation, no waiting for quotes. Pricing is transparent and published. You can evaluate MetriCal on your terms and scale up when it makes sense for your operation, not when a contract renewal comes due.

Why We Made This Change

Tangram Vision has spent the last 5 years developing world-class calibration software. The technological task we face every day is daunting: create a calibration suite that is not only precise, but also works across modalities in a seamless, user-friendly way.

The only thing harder than that was figuring out how to license it.

Multi-modality calibration has always been a high-friction problem. You need to know if calibration software works for your specific sensor suite before committing to it, but traditional licensing forces you into a contract sight unseen. You’re then locked into rigid pricing that doesn’t match your actual usage.

We learned this the hard way by being the company that forced the contract, by putting users into those licenses. We heard the same feedback from robotics teams time and time again:

“We need to try this in our software before we’re confident”

“Our calibration volume varies month-to-month; fixed pricing makes no sense”

“We don’t need an Enterprise contract just to calibrate 10 systems”

Our previous licensing models (and we’ve had many) either leaned too far into the development side or the scale side. We asked users to restrict their calibration modalities, limit their calibration counts, or pay for machines they didn't use. We asked small companies to accept all-or-nothing contracts that were prohibitively expensive. Nothing fit, and it frustrated everyone.

So, over the course of 2025, we faced this problem head-on and figured out a better way. Today, that work makes its public debut.
