APIRE's enterprise pricing model is meticulously designed to meet the complex needs of large organizations deploying AI in production environments who require comprehensive, real-time AI threat protection. Our structure offers a clear distinction between capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operating expenditure (OPEX) models, ensuring flexibility regardless of your organization's procurement strategy. All core offerings are inclusive of a substantial volume of included yearly AI API requests, establishing a predictable starting point for your consumption, with seamless scalability through tiered add-on bundles for growth. This ensures that you can immediately begin securing your AI deployments while budgeting for future expansion.

 

For organizations that prioritize dedicated, high-performance hardware, the Physical Appliance model is the ideal choice, structured around a one-time purchase price. This model is engineered to handle demanding enterprise workloads, with options ranging from standard physical appliance models to high-end, specialized hardware configurations, such as the NVIDIA DGX Series, offering superior standalone performance for AI Threat Prevention and Content Security. Following the initial investment, this model transitions into a predictable operating cost through an annual maintenance fee. This fee is calculated as a standard percentage of the initial list price for most appliances, ensuring long-term operational costs are transparent and manageable. This structure supports a strong focus on maximizing your hardware investment while securing mission-critical AI infrastructure.

 

Alternatively, APIRE offers a highly flexible Virtual Appliance model, which operates on an annual subscription basis, aligning with a purely OPEX strategy. The core virtual appliance provides essential security services, along with included features like APIRE Secure Chat support and a specialized Logging Appliance. The true flexibility of this model is found in its add-on options, which allow for granular configuration of your deployment architecture. These configuration options include a fully on-premise virtual deployment (Virtual Security Proxy + On-Premise Virtual AI Brain), a hybrid model (On-Premise Virtual Security Proxy + Cloud AI Brain), or even an option to pair a virtual security proxy with a physical AI Brain appliance. This modularity allows you to precisely match the deployment architecture to your internal data residency and security requirements, while seamlessly integrating different layers of APIRE's protection technology.
