Understand Pricing, Terms, and Rollout without a Procurement Maze

Aurora keeps the buying motion legible: annual-prepay default, named add-on units, flexible procurement channels, included enterprise controls, and a separate Command path when in-environment proof is in scope.

How Procurement Usually Moves

Align Channel, Controls, Commercial Terms, And Support Expectations Early

Aurora shortens procurement by making the buying path, included controls, expansion rules, and Command deployment terms visible before legal review starts.

01
Choose the Commercial Path
Self-serve, sales-assist, or quote-only based on footprint, Command scope, and procurement constraints.
Pricing mechanics
02
Review Included Controls
Aurora names the enterprise controls mature procurement teams expect in the base product.
Enterprise controls
03
Pick the Transaction Path
Direct annual invoice, AWS Marketplace, or private offer. The product packaging stays the same regardless of channel.

04
Separate Command Deployment Terms
When Command is in scope, deployment, premium support, and boundary terms stay explicit instead of hidden in a blended quote.
Command for regulated environments
05
Lock Renewal and Add-On Rules
Renewals, price protection, true-ups, and contracted-rate add-ons stay simple enough to approve without guesswork.

What This Solves

Why Procurement Slows Down Even When The Product Fit Is Real

Buying friction appears when pricing rules, enterprise controls, export posture, and premium exceptions stay partially explained.

Expansion Rules Are Vague

Aurora publishes common units and thresholds so procurement knows how growth changes the deal.
See pricing mechanics

Enterprise Controls Show Up Late

Aurora names the control surface buyers expect instead of relying on generic enterprise-grade language.
See Enterprise Controls

Command Gets Blended into the Wrong Motion

Aurora keeps regulated and hybrid Command on a separate commercial path so procurement understands the different terms.

Questions Procurement Asks

Plain Language Answers For The Commercial Review Team

Common questions once the buyer is serious and internal review starts.

Does Aurora publish real pricing or just anchor copy?
Aurora publishes list pricing for Platform Core, major non-Command modules, and common expansion units. Procurement sees the commercial shape before a private quote exists.
Are enterprise controls included or hidden?
Aurora includes named enterprise controls in the paid plan. The goal is to remove late-stage procurement friction, not create another surprise upsell.
Why is Command handled separately?
Command changes the deployment, support, and environment-boundary burden. Aurora keeps that motion separate so the standard software path stays clean and the Command path stays honest.
Can Aurora work through our preferred channel?
Yes. Aurora supports direct annual invoice, AWS Marketplace, or private-offer procurement while preserving the same core pricing logic. The tenant billing state stays authoritative inside the product; accounting systems remain reconciliation targets.
