We don't quote a gate price off a rate card, because it follows your agent's tool surface — how many consequential actions route through it, how hard the chokepoint is to make complete. So the number is set after a Phase 0 review, never before. What's free is the part that earns the meeting; what's paid is the part that proves it on your own traffic.
The gate produces exactly what an auditor wants to see: a deterministic control on consequential actions (not a probabilistic filter) and a hash-chained, tamper-evident log of every decision. It speaks directly to the EU AI Act's Art. 15 robustness-and-cybersecurity surface for high-risk systems.
