Gateway is the free route layer. Paid plans add route metadata, PriviShield sanitization, Vault custody, Sentinel control, telemetry, replayable evidence, retention, and scale. Gateway requests describe model-provider traffic routed through Aera. PriviShield requests describe traffic screened or sanitized by PriviShield. Sentinel governed requests describe traffic evaluated by Sentinel for runtime control, review, block, telemetry, evidence, trajectory, or replay. Raw customer content is not retained by default; evidence posture depends on configuration.
Gateway Pro protects model traffic with PriviShield starter sanitization and a small Vault allocation. Founder adds Sentinel control. Start free with Gateway and trial the control stack before choosing a paid plan. Trial includes Founder-level access to Gateway, PriviShield, Vault, and Sentinel for a limited evaluation period. After the trial, ongoing Sentinel control starts with Founder. After the trial, ongoing Sentinel governed requests start with Founder.
Primary list: USD. Regional pricing may be rounded and localized before launch. Taxes may apply. Other regions use USD unless contracted otherwise.
