## How to Use This Document

To quote pricing for a customer, follow these steps in order:

1. **Identify their plan tier:** Match required features against the Feature Comparison tables to determine the minimum plan (Hobby, Starter, Team, or Enterprise).
2. **Determine billing cycle:** Monthly or Annual. Annual billing saves ~20%.
3. **Look up base prices for each module:**
   - **Detect:** Base plan price for uptime + synthetic monitoring.
   - **Communicate:** Status pages + dashboards pricing.
   - **Resolve:** AI Root Cause Analysis pricing.
4. **Add any resource add-ons (Detect only):** Check if the customer needs additional monitors, browser checks, or API checks beyond included amounts. Look up each add-on price from the explicit tables.
5. **Calculate total cost:** Total = Detect Base Price + Communicate Price + Resolve Price + sum of all applicable add-on prices.
6. **Account for overages:** If the customer may exceed purchased add-ons, note the overage rates per plan.
7. **Enterprise:** If any component requires custom pricing, direct the customer to Checkly sales.

- **Playwright Check Suites:** Group multiple related browser checks into a single scheduled suite.

- **Status Pages:** Public or private pages that communicate the real-time operational status of your services to users and stakeholders.
- **Dashboards:** Custom dashboards to visualize and share monitoring data with your team or stakeholders.
- **AI Root Cause Analysis (RCA):** AI-powered diagnostics that automatically analyze check failures to identify the root cause.
- **Public Locations:** Checkly-managed global data center locations from which checks are executed. 6 locations on Hobby/Starter, all 22 on Team/Enterprise.
- **Private Locations:** Run checks from within your own infrastructure to monitor internal services not exposed to the public internet. Available on Team and Enterprise.
