Self service
A human reviews a fixed price or Stripe Checkout before payment.
Pricing and purchase optionsSelf service · metered · scoped
Start with the smallest commercial step that answers your question.
Buy a bounded provenance product, fund a developer workflow, call a machine-payable API, or scope one consequential assessment without treating every need as an enterprise engagement.
Each option below states its acquisition mode. “Price at checkout” means the configured price is disclosed before payment. “Enquiry only” means there is no purchase, payment, or escrow path yet.
Choose by buying mode
The payment boundary is part of the product.
Developer credits
Subscriptions or top-ups fund supported APIs after an API key is connected.
Machine payable
Only published x402 routes may accept an autonomous USDC payment.
Human scoped
Research, assessments, implementation, and RFQs require a defined scope first.

Maha Context Compiler
$0.001 / call
Compress long documents and RAG inputs into token-budgeted, deduplicated context packs with source-linked provenance. Returns original and compiled token counts, so the saving is verifiable. Net-positive above N = fee / (r x p) tokens: r your reduction, p your input price. Extractive and budget-bound, so check includedPassages before relying on it. Ranks Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic and CJK; CJK coarser (bigrams). Not for tabular or heavily-structured payloads.

Maha Context Budget Ladder
$0.005 / call
Compile the same supplied documents at exactly five ascending token budgets. Returns five source-linked extractive Context Packs, a compact comparison table, stable hashes, and a deterministic receipt digest. Price basis: five $0.001 compilations. No model inference, source acquisition, claim verification, completeness guarantee, or answer-quality assessment. Request and result bodies are not stored.

Maha Context Compiler
$0.01 / call
Compile 1-8 documents into a token-budgeted context pack, then measure exact retention of 1-32 caller-labelled evidence spans. Returns the pack, source-linked passages, input and output hashes, original and compiled token estimates, tokensSaved, source coverage, and requiredEvidenceRetentionPercent. Retention is exact span matching only: not accuracy, answer quality, verification, or hallucination prevention. Extractive and budget-bound. Request content is not stored.

Maha Evidence Retention Matrix
$0.05 / call
Evaluate exact retention of 1-32 caller-labelled evidence spans at exactly five ascending token budgets. Returns five source-linked Context Packs, per-run retention metrics, an evidence frontier, stable hashes, and a deterministic receipt digest. Price basis: five $0.01 evaluations. Retention is not truth, accuracy, answer quality, legal compliance, or hallucination prevention. Bodies are not stored.

Maha Provenance Standard
$0.1 / call
Automated claim triage for a nonfiction passage under the Maha Provenance Standard v0.1. Each substantive claim returns a provenance status (VERIFIED, SOURCED, BOUNDARY, ILLUSTRATIVE, UNVERIFIED), a rationale, and a suggested action. Model-assigned triage: not factual certification, legal advice, or human verification, and must be checked before publication. Passage limit 6000 characters. The full passage is not stored; results keep short verbatim claim excerpts.

Maha Governed Context Verification Pack
$0.5 / call
Produce one machine-readable context-control evidence packet from caller-supplied documents and exact evidence spans: compiled Context Pack, retention results, policy and budget observations, integrity hashes, boundaries, and deterministic receipt digest. A machine-generated preflight, not factual or compliance certification, new research, human judgment, or proof of downstream model behavior. Bodies are not stored.

Maha Research Intake
$1.0 / call
Machine-generated intake packet for one question and 1-10 supplied source sections. Returns one MPS triage per section, an ordered manifest, claim inventory, citation gaps, potential conflicts, unresolved questions, proposed human-research scope, and deterministic digests. Fixed $1 capacity price: up to ten $0.10 section audits. Not a research brief, new research, factual certification, human judgment, or a recommendation.

Context-control assessment options
A fixed fee for a bounded decision.
Maha freezes one workload in context control or governed agent actions and compares inspectable paths before recommending that you proceed, revise, or stop. The assessment does not include implementation.
Standard Context-Control Evidence Assessment
$12,500
One customer-supplied workload, three paths, a written recommendation.
Extended Assessment
$25,000
Multiple workloads or a second gateway configuration, with per-workload findings for each.
Founding design partner · $2,500
Available to the first two signed customers, agreeing in advance to act as a named reference and to permit an anonymized integration note.
This is not a general or negotiable discount. It is a fixed exchange for reference participation, and it closes after two customers.
Research and implementation
Human-scoped work with a written boundary.
Human scope required
Rapid Intelligence Brief
Starting at $500
A bounded research brief targeted for delivery within five business days after a human confirms fit, sources, deliverable, price, and timing.
Scope a rapid brief ↗Human scope required
Verified Research Brief
$2,500
A deeper research engagement targeted for ten business days after the question and evidence boundary are narrowed with a human.
Discuss verified research ↗Human scope required
Custom implementation
Priced after scope
Gateway middleware, MCP/A2A integration, governed workflow state graphs, or other implementation work is quoted separately after one bounded workflow and acceptance criteria are agreed.
Describe the workflow ↗Enquiry only · not purchasable

Both listings explicitly publish purchasable: false, price: null, and no settlement instructions. An enquiry may lead to a separate destination-specific quote; it is not an order.

Assessment method and limits
The higher-priced work remains reproducible and bounded.
What it produces
- • A customer-supplied, sanitized document or RAG workload. No production credentials and no personal data.
- • Configuration and workload frozen and digest-recorded before anything runs, so the scoring target cannot move after results are seen.
- • Three paths compared: your baseline, your gateway-native compression, and Maha.
- • Token and cost measurement, evidence retention, citations and provenance, latency, and failure-path behaviour.
- • Sanitized per-workload findings and a written proceed, revise, or stop recommendation.
Explicit limits
- • No production deployment. The assessment measures; it does not install.
- • No performance or savings guarantee. Nothing is promised before measurement.
- • No certification or compliance opinion of any kind.
- • No open-ended discovery, data migration, or custom implementation work.
What to judge Maha on
- • Deterministic selection: the same inputs produce the same pack, with no model in the path.
- • Hard budgets: the declared token budget is enforced rather than advised.
- • Source-linked provenance: every retained passage carries its source and passage identifier.
- • Stable hashes: input and output commitments a reviewer can recompute.
- • Reproducible evidence: per-workload rows and a one-command check, not a headline.
No retention-superiority claim is made here. The public evidence package includes a dense baseline that scores higher on evidence retention than Maha's production scorer on the frozen MCRB-1 cohort.
