NAICOM pricing
Three ways to deploy. One thing you pay for.
NAICOM is a local daemon and a server. The daemon runs wherever AI-assisted work happens; the server holds the audit trail. Pick the column by where your server has to live, then read one number.
A client node is one machine running the NAICOM daemon and reporting to your server — a developer laptop, a build agent, or a workstation inside your boundary. That is the unit you are charged for.

All three routes reach the same contact form, which does not carry a tier field — name the deployment model in your message and it lands with the right person. Per-node pricing falls as the tier rises because a customer running their own infrastructure is already carrying the cost of scale.

FAQ
What people ask before they sign.
What counts as a client node — and does an idle machine count?
A client node is one machine running the NAICOM daemon: a developer laptop, a build agent, a CI worker, a workstation inside your boundary. Metering counts the distinct nodes that check in to your server during a billing month. A machine that is powered on but doing no AI work still counts, because it is still registered and still able to open a session. A machine that never checks in at all during the month is not counted, so decommissioned hardware falls off on its own.
What happens when we exceed the included node count?
Nothing stops. Nodes above the included count bill at that tier’s additional-node rate and appear on the next invoice. The daemon is never refused registration and an audit record is never dropped because you crossed a line — a hard stop would create exactly the gap in the audit trail the product exists to close. On-Prem has no node ceiling, so it has no overage.
Is the on-prem build the same software?
Yes. One codebase, one release train, one set of features. SaaS, PaaS and On-Prem run the same server build; what differs is who operates it and where it sits. There is no reduced on-prem edition and no feature held back for the hosted tiers.
Can client nodes run outside the network the server is in?
Yes. The daemon reports out over HTTPS on 443 and needs no inbound connectivity, no VPN and no shared subnet. A contractor laptop on a home network and a build agent inside a private VPC report to the same server. The exception is deliberate: an air-gapped On-Prem deployment keeps nodes and server inside the same isolated network, because that is the point of the air gap.
Can FedRAMP customers run this inside an authorized boundary?
Yes — that is what On-Prem is for. The server runs on your infrastructure inside the boundary, keys stay in your HSM, and no session data or audit record leaves your environment. Novaprospect does not itself hold a FedRAMP authorization; an On-Prem deployment inherits the authorization of the environment you run it in, and we supply the control mapping your assessor will ask for.
Do you charge per seat?
No. Seats are unlimited in every tier. You are charged for client nodes, because a node is the thing that actually runs AI work and produces audit records — and it is the thing you can count without an argument about who is an active user this month.
