    Frequently asked questions

    Everything you need to know about our pricing and plans

    What's the difference between self-serve and done for you?

    Self-serve is the StackUp platform, which you run yourself: assessments, benchmarking, tracking and AI agents, from US$250 per month. Done for you means a senior independent CTO with 20+ years of technology leadership experience does the work with your team. There are three ways to engage: the AI Leadership Sprint (from US$20,000), a single-day consult (US$2,500) and an ongoing Fractional CTO engagement (US$5,000 per month).

    Who is the AI Leadership Sprint for?

    Organisations where AI is firmly on the agenda but the leadership team's own understanding is the bottleneck. It suits any organisation whose CEO or board owns the AI question personally. It is a four-week engagement plus a month of executive support, and includes 12 months of platform access. It runs remotely from US$20,000, or on site from US$30,000 plus travel, and scales with organisation size.

    What does the single-day consult include?

    One day with a senior independent CTO for a fixed US$2,500. The scope is fixed, and it includes an independent StackUp assessment of your organisation and the report that comes from it. Book a call to agree the date and focus.

    How does the ongoing Fractional CTO engagement work?

    A senior independent CTO provides ongoing technology leadership for your organisation for US$5,000 per month, without the cost of a full-time hire. Book a call to talk through what you need.

    What currency are prices in?

    All prices are in US dollars. GST applies for Australian customers.

    What payment methods do you accept?

    We accept all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and UnionPay. All payments are processed securely through Stripe with automatic invoicing for subscription plans.

    What is the guarantee?

    You'll feel the value in one week, or it's free. If the StackUp platform does not give you clear, actionable insight within seven days of your first payment, tell us and we will refund it in full. The guarantee covers self-serve platform subscriptions. Done-for-you engagements are services and are not covered by it.

    How do AI agent calls work?

    AI agent calls are automated conversations that gather insights from your team members and stakeholders. Each call uses our AI to conduct structured interviews, analyse responses, and generate actionable insights. The platform subscription provides 100 calls per month and Enterprise Portfolio offers 1,000+ calls per month. Additional call packs can be purchased if needed.

    What is Portfolio Visibility?

    Portfolio Visibility allows you to view assessment results across multiple organisations. This is ideal for investors, board members, or parent companies who need visibility across their portfolio. The platform subscription includes up to 5 organisations, while Enterprise Portfolio offers unlimited organisations.

    How many team members can I add?

    The platform subscription includes 15 active users per organisation (excluding call recipients), and Enterprise Portfolio is unlimited. Active users can access the dashboard, participate in assessments, and view reports.

    What's the difference between monthly and annual billing?

    Annual billing gives you twelve months for the price of ten: US$2,500 per year instead of US$250 per month. You pay for the year upfront. Both options include the same features and support.

    Can I cancel my subscription at any time?

    Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. If you cancel, you'll retain access until the end of your current billing period.
