Metered platforms charge you each time a worker makes a decision. We take the
opposite approach. The business rules you state become fixed checks wherever
possible, and fixed checks never call an AI model. Every design option comes with an
AI-estimated running cost before you build. The Studio also shows where a worker
could be made more predictable and less expensive.
The AI judgment that remains runs on the AI model accounts you choose, including
fully local models. Each AI agent has a cap on how many steps it can take, and you can set a time limit for each run.
For agent systems that make the same decisions all day, the Cognitive Engine takes
proven routine decisions off the AI bill entirely. It is a separate product, not built into Nx·Studio workers.
You export and run the code yourself, so there is no runtime license and no
per-decision meter. Success never raises what you pay us. Your AI model provider
bills separately for the AI calls your workers make.
Our business model is the proof. We charge to design your workforce, not to run
it. A vendor with a meter profits when you depend on it. Our incentives point
toward your independence. Ongoing help is optional, on your terms.
