Understanding Credits
MetriCal processes calibrations according to a credit system. Credits count modalities, not sensors. A rig with six cameras and one lidar is one Camera modality plus one Lidar modality = 4 Credits.
2 Credits Per Calibration
+1 Credit Per Added Modality
Credits Deduct On Success
Credits Remain On Failure
Successful calibrations deduct credits. A successful calibration delivers results and doesn't throw any high-risk data diagnostics. Only calls to MetriCal's Calibrate command will activate Credits; calling any other command will not use any Credits.
Enterprise Metered and Annual
Grown beyond our Growth plan? You need reliability. You need guarantees. You need Enterprise. Start metered with no commitment, or commit annually and get 15% off your credit purchase.
Metered
Billed monthly according to usage. $3,500 monthly minimum. Annual customers pay metered prices on overage credits.
Annual
Commit to a yearly Credit volume, invoiced in advance. Unused credits carry forward through your term.
Enterprise Add-Ons
Support
Includes email support during business hours. Engineering work beyond support (new features, custom integrations) is NRE at $3,000 per engineer-day, or $375 per engineer-hour.
Enterprise SLA
Contractual response and resolution targets, a dedicated Slack Connect/Google Meet channel, and SLA credits back when we miss our targets.
Premium SLA
24/7 coverage and a dedicated technical account manager. Requires Enterprise SLA.
Air-Gapped Deployment
Run MetriCal on devices that never touch the internet. Credits are purchased in advance at your rate and allocated to offline licenses generated on your own devices. Or, work fully untethered with periodic check-ins to extend license validity. Requires Enterprise SLA.
Binary Escrow
We deposit a standalone, licensable copy of MetriCal with a mutually agreed escrow agent within 60 days of signing and refresh it within 30 days of every major release. If Tangram ever ceases operations, the escrow releases with a perpetual license to keep calibrating.
SLA targets
We triage issues by their impact from P3 (mild impact) to P1 (major impact).
Both SLAs carry remedies: SLA credits accrue automatically when we miss a P1 or P2 target.
FAQ
Can I switch between plans?
Yes! You can upgrade from pay-as-you-go to a subscription at any time. You can also upgrade or downgrade subscription tiers. Unused subscription credits will roll over based on your plan's rollover terms.
Enterprise contracts are an annual commitment and cannot be downgraded during their term.
Are Credits tied to specific machines or users?
Credits are tied to your organization. Any Credits available to your organization are available to you as an individual user.
Note that offline licenses are tied to a specific machine. However, Credits are still drawn and reconciled based on the organization's plan.
Do failed calibrations cost anything?
No. Credits are consumed only when a calibration completes and passes MetriCal's quality thresholds. Dry runs and validation checks are free.
Is there a platform fee?
No. You pay for Credits, plus whichever add-ons you select if you are an Enterprise user.
What happens to unused Credits?
On subscriptions, Credits roll over for up to 6 months; on credit bundles, up to 3 months. Upon subscription cancellation, unused credits will expire at the earlier of (i) one month from the date of cancellation, or (ii) their original expiry date.
On enterprise orders, Credits carry forward through every year of your order term, with a 90-day grace period after the term ends.
When should I switch from Growth to Enterprise?
At around 380 Credits a month. Growth works out to $10.50 per Credit; the enterprise metered rate starts at $9.20 with a $3,500 monthly minimum, and an annual commitment starts at $8.00. If you're consistently burning through Growth's 300 monthly Credits into overages, it's time to talk.
What if we exceed our commitment?
Subscriptions must opt-in to overage charges; otherwise MetriCal will prevent overages from occurring during calibration. If opted in, credit bundles are purchased at the then-current rate to compensate.
For Enterprise Annual, overage bills at the metered rate, invoiced monthly in arrears. There is no penalty premium beyond that rate. Enterprise Metered does not have overages.
Will our rates change mid-term? (Enterprise Only)
No. Rates are fixed for your committed period. Rate updates apply only to new orders and renewals. Multi-year contracts feature rate adjustment guarantees.
