What does an AI agent actually cost?
Subscription price is the wrong lens. The real monthly cost is base + token spend + ops time. Tell us your setup; we'll rank every agent in our catalog by what you'd actually pay.

How we estimate
Three components:
- Base — the cheapest qualifying tier from the agent's published pricing, scaled to your seat count. For open-source agents this is $0; for sales-led agents we exclude it and flag a note.
- Tokens — for open-source agents (or BYO-key plans), the estimated monthly token spend based on your volume and the workflow's typical per-action cost (e.g. ~$1.20 per coding PR, ~$0.10 per support ticket). Managed agents include tokens in their subscription, so this is zero for them.
- Ops — engineering / admin hours per month at a loaded rate matched to your team size, times the typical hours required (more for self-hosted).
The model trades precision for honesty. Your specific token mix, dev rate, and integration depth will shift the numbers — but the relative ranking holds across reasonable parameter changes. See our full methodology.
