# Build the memory at five. Keep it at five hundred.

ekory is one place for everything your team knows, with AI agents working on top of it. For early-stage startups it costs €20 per person per month, with no platform fee.

_Example: A founder asks what was promised to the pilot customer: the Eko answers from the proposal._

_The startup offer_

## Everything included. No platform fee.

Normally ekory is a platform fee plus a per-person fee. For early-stage startups the platform fee is zero and the price is flat.

**€20** per person, per month **€0** platform fee **All** included: knowledge, Ekos, courses, wikis

Who qualifies:

- Under €500K in annual revenue
- Under €2M raised in total
- Anywhere in the world, in English or Italian

If you grow past the thresholds, you keep everything you've built and move to standard pricing.

## Sound familiar?

### Everyone has their own AI. Nobody has the memory.

Prompts, notes and decisions live in personal accounts. When someone leaves, they leave too.

### The context lives in the founders' heads.

Customers, choices and the reasons behind them. At five people it holds. At fifteen, every question goes back to the founders.

### Three tools for the same knowledge.

An AI chat, a wiki, a training platform: three subscriptions to hold the same information together.

## The questions that all go through one person today.

With ekory they get an answer in seconds, with the source. Evenings and weekends too.

- What did we promise our first pilot customer?
- Why did we change pricing in March?
- Prepare the investor update from this month's numbers.
- What's the process for onboarding a new customer?
- Who has talked to this investor?
- What does a new team member need to know?

_Example: Eko Team finds what was promised to a pilot customer, from the call notes and the proposal._

## One Eko per role. The whole team's memory.

**Eko Team** For everyone

Customers, decisions and the reasons behind them in one place, kept current as you work.

**Eko Sales** For whoever sells

Proposals, prices and objections, the same for everyone from your first sales hire.

**Super Eko** For the founders

Prepares documents and summaries from everything you can see.

## What founders ask before they start.

### Who qualifies for startup pricing?

Startups with under €500K in annual revenue and under €2M raised in total, anywhere in the world. We check it simply during the demo. If you grow past the thresholds, you keep everything you've built and move to [standard pricing](https://ekory.ai/pricing).

### Can we start on our own, without a demo?

Yes. Create your workspace for free, no credit card needed, connect Google Drive or Notion, and your first Eko answers from your documents. When you want startup pricing, we check eligibility during a short demo.

### Why not a personal AI account for everyone?

Because the memory stays in individual accounts: when someone leaves, their notes and decisions leave too. In ekory knowledge belongs to the team, with role-based permissions and answers that cite the source, plus wikis, courses and automations on top, in one subscription.

### Is our data safe?

Your data is stored in Europe, in line with the GDPR, and your content is never used to train AI models. Each person sees only what you share with them, and conversations stay private. The details are on the [Security and data](https://ekory.ai/security) page.
