The TL;DR
The Problem

AI platform pricing is notoriously opaque with hidden fees. Businesses struggle to accurately assess ROI when choosing AI employee solutions, and individuals cannot easily determine which plan offers the best value.

The Solution

OpenMax practices transparent pricing with two public cloud plans plus custom Enterprise and On-Premise options. Each tier features, compute level, and support response times are fully documented. Monthly, weekly, and quarterly billing available with cancel-anytime flexibility.

The Result

Air is perfect for individuals getting started. Pro delivers the best value for startups. Enterprise covers unlimited scale and custom integration. On-Premise meets strict data residency and private-cloud deployment requirements.

Before and After Using OpenMax

Before

  • AI platform pricing is opaque with actual costs far exceeding advertised prices
  • Entry-level plans are so feature-limited as to be unusable
  • Unclear upgrade paths force re-evaluation when scaling
  • No enterprise-grade deployment options such as private deployment, SSO, SLA

After

  • Two public plans plus custom Enterprise and On-Premise options
  • Air plan already includes omnichannel deployment, scheduled tasks, and persistent memory
  • Clear Air to Pro to Enterprise or On-Premise upgrade path
  • Enterprise and On-Premise options cover SSO/SAML, SLA guarantees, and private deployment needs

Air ($99/mo): Your First AI Employee

Air is OpenMax's entry-level Agent Cloud plan for individuals and freelancers. It includes 1 AI employee instance, standard AI compute, essential skills, all standard channels such as Telegram, Lark and Slack, plus email support. Core features include persistent memory, 24/7 availability, scheduled tasks, fully managed model selection, and no requirement to bring your own API key.

Pro ($449/mo): Startup Productivity Engine

Pro is OpenMax's recommended value choice for startups and small teams. It keeps the same 1 AI employee instance as Air, but upgrades to advanced AI compute with larger context and stronger reasoning, full skills, all channels, and 24-hour priority support. Choose Pro when your AI employee handles production work or business-critical analysis.

Enterprise (Custom): Unlimited Scale and Deep Integration

Enterprise is custom-priced for large organizations that need unlimited AI employee instances, deeper integration development, SLA guarantees, SSO/SAML, custom compute, and 1-hour response support. It is the right path when a team is ready to scale from one AI employee into a coordinated Agent Team across multiple business functions.

On-Premise (Custom): Self-Hosted, Data Stays In-House

On-Premise is for organizations with strict data residency, compliance, or infrastructure requirements. It supports fully self-hosted or private-cloud deployment, keeps data inside your infrastructure, and includes custom integration, dedicated technical support, SLA, SSO/SAML, and enterprise-grade security.

Before choosing a plan

Operating responsibility

Identify who owns the AI employee, approves outputs, handles exceptions, and maintains prompts, knowledge, channels, and integrations. A lower plan price does not remove these operating responsibilities.

Runtime and integrations

Confirm which runtime components, connectors, APIs, export formats, and migration support are included. Custom integration work can materially change total cost.

Data path

Map prompts, files, memory, logs, model requests, and backups. Confirm retention, deletion, residency, and model-training terms for the plan and hosting model under review.

Commercial terms

Check billing, renewal, cancellation, usage limits, support response, and service-end data handling in the current checkout or contract. Custom plans should state these terms explicitly.

Plan Selection Decision Guide

When to choose Air ($99/mo)

Best for: Individuals, freelancers, and first-time evaluators.
Choose Air when: You want to test whether an AI employee can handle one recurring task such as daily reporting or competitor monitoring. You work alone or in a very small team and do not need priority support. Keep in mind: Air is one AI employee instance with standard compute and email support.

When to choose Pro ($449/mo)

Best for: Startups, small teams, and production workflows.
Choose Pro when: Your AI employee handles business-critical work, needs larger context windows, stronger reasoning, full skills, all channels, and 24-hour priority support. Keep in mind: Pro is still one AI employee instance; larger multi-agent scale belongs in Enterprise.

When to choose Enterprise (Custom)

Best for: Large organizations, multi-agent teams, and custom integrations.
Choose Enterprise when: You need multiple instances, deeper integration, SSO/SAML, an agreed SLA, custom compute, or organization-specific support and governance.

When to choose On-Premise (Custom)

Best for: Strict data residency, regulated environments, and private infrastructure.
Choose On-Premise when: You need OpenMax deployed in your own infrastructure or private cloud, with data staying in-house, dedicated technical support, custom integration, SLA, SSO/SAML, and enterprise-grade security.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are OpenMax pricing plans?

OpenMax currently presents two public Agent Cloud plans, Air at $99/mo and Pro at $449/mo, plus custom Enterprise and On-Premise options for unlimited scale, private-cloud deployment, SSO/SAML, SLA and strict data residency requirements.

When is the Air plan a fit?

Air can fit a bounded pilot using one AI employee and standard compute. Confirm that its channels, skills, context, support, and workload limits match the task before relying on it in production.

Do all plans support omnichannel?

Yes. Air and Pro include all standard channels such as Telegram, Lark and Slack. Enterprise adds custom integrations on top of standard channels, and On-Premise can be deployed in a private cloud or self-hosted environment when data residency is strict.

How do cancellation terms work?

Review the current checkout terms for Air and Pro. Enterprise and On-Premise cancellation, renewal, and service-end conditions are defined in the applicable contract.

Inputs for a realistic OpenMax budget

AI employees

Count the independent roles and concurrent workflows required now, then separate pilot demand from the expected scale after validation.

Workload

Estimate context size, task complexity, run frequency, channel coverage, memory needs, and the systems each role must access.

Support and deployment

Include support response, identity integration, custom development, private deployment, data residency, and operating ownership.

Pricing decision checklist

Compare the full scope

Compare employee limits, compute level, skills, channels, memory, scheduled tasks, support, integrations, and deployment requirements together.

Validate with one workflow

Run a representative workflow and record output quality, reviewer effort, exception handling, response needs, and operating cost.

Choose for the next stage

Select the smallest plan that safely supports the validated workflow and its near-term expansion, then reassess after usage stabilizes.
