Four tiers, one traceability journey

These are not feature bundles. They are stages of a compliance and traceability journey.

Every metals manufacturer needs traceability. Auditors expect it. Customers demand it. Shipments stall without it. The question is how far you want to take it — and how fast.

Starter — the traceability foundation (£180/month · £120/month billed annually) Every order tracked. Every cert stored. Every material movement logged. You get full inventory visibility, certificate management, and compliance documentation for one site, unlimited users. This is where traceability begins.

Workshop — compliance automation (£350/month · £280/month billed annually · 500 AI credits/month) Everything in Starter, plus AI that reads your mill certs automatically. Quality rules fire without anyone remembering to check. Includes 500 AI credits per month for Mill Certificate extraction and automated compliance checks.

Production — full end-to-end traceability (£950/month · £760/month billed annually · 2,500 AI credits/month) Everything in Workshop, plus AI-driven cut plans tied to certified material. Sales and order insights included. When a customer queries a product, you trace it from sale back to the original mill cert in seconds. Includes 2,500 AI credits per month.

Scale — enterprise multi-site rollout (£2,340/month · £1,872/month billed annually · 8,000 AI credits/month) Everything in Production, across multiple sites. Centralised compliance, site-level visibility, and 8,000 AI credits per month for high-volume AI operations.

What AI credits are for

AI credits power the features that remove manual work from compliance.

Mill Certificate extraction — the AI reads your incoming PDFs and pulls out grades, heats, mechanical properties, and chemical compositions. No typing, no transcription errors. Each extraction uses a small number of credits depending on cert complexity.

Cutting Plan AI — the AI optimises cut sequences against certified stock, not just any stock. It ties the cut plan to traceable material from the start. Available on Production and Scale.

Sales and order insights — pattern recognition across your order history, stock levels, and lead times. Flags risks before they become late shipments. Available on Production and Scale.

Credits are consumed when those features run. Routine inventory, cert storage, and compliance logging do not use credits.

Credit packs — buy what you need

If your team processes a high volume of certs in a given month, you can top up with a credit pack. Credit packs never expire while you are subscribed.

CreditsPrice
500 credits£40
1,500 credits£105
5,000 credits£300
15,000 credits£800

There are no automatic top-ups or surprise overage charges. You buy a pack when you need one, and AI features pause automatically once your credits run out. See Spend caps below.

Spend caps: budget in control

AI credits give you flexibility. Spend caps keep your costs predictable.

Once your monthly allowance and any credit pack balance are both used up, AI features pause automatically until you top up or your credits reset at the start of the next month. Nothing runs silently in the background and charges you money you did not plan for — there is no automatic overage billing.

Your bundled credits roll into the next month if unused? No — bundled credits reset monthly. Credit pack credits never expire while subscribed. If you have both, bundled credits are consumed first.

Unlimited users, one site (multi-site on Scale)

Starter, Workshop, and Production cover one site with unlimited users. There is no cap. Operations managers, QC engineers, stock controllers, and saw operators all log in on the same subscription. Adding someone to the team costs nothing.

Scale is built for multi-site operations. Centralised compliance visibility, site-level permissions, and consolidated reporting across all your locations.

There are no per-seat fees on any tier. The price on this page is what you pay.

Free trial, then 50% off your first month

Every new company gets a 7-day free trial with 50 AI credits, no card required. Try Mill Certificate extraction, cutting plans, and order insights on real data before you commit to anything.

When your trial ends or your 50 credits run out — whichever comes first — add a card and pick the tier that fits. New customers get 50% off their first paid month on any tier.

GoSmarter is built to return value from day one. The trial and the discount both reflect that confidence: see the platform working on your stock and your certs first, then pay half price while you confirm it for good.

Contact us or book a demo to get started.

No per-seat fees — ever

GoSmarter does not charge per user. One flat subscription per site, regardless of team size. No renegotiation when you hire. No budget creep as your operation grows.

REST API access is included at no extra cost on every tier. Onboarding support is included. There are no hidden professional services fees for basic configuration.

Annual plans save you up to 33% compared with monthly billing. Cancel at the end of any billing period with no exit fee and no retention calls.

Build the business case first

Not sure the numbers stack up? Our free Business Case Calculator runs the maths for you: scrap rates, admin hours lost to cert chasing, material wastage costs, and projected savings. Export as PDF. No account required.

Most customers recover the cost of their plan within the first quarter. For high-volume cert operations, it is often within the first month. Run the numbers before you pick a tier.

Questions

Common Questions

What are AI credits?

AI credits power the features that automate compliance work. Mill Certificate extraction uses credits when the AI reads a PDF cert and pulls out grades, heats, and test results. Cutting Plan AI uses credits when it optimises cut sequences against certified stock. Sales and order insights use credits when pattern recognition runs across your order data.

Routine inventory management, cert storage, and compliance logging do not consume credits. Credits are used when the AI does active work.

Each tier includes a monthly credit allowance: Workshop includes 500, Production includes 2,500, and Scale includes 8,000. Starter does not include AI credits. You can top up at any time with a credit pack.

What happens when I run out of credits?

Once you hit your monthly credit limit, AI features pause automatically until you top up or your credits reset at the start of the next month.

Nothing runs silently and charges you unexpectedly — there is no automatic overage billing. Buy a credit pack any time to top up immediately.

Can I buy extra credits?

Yes. Credit packs are available at any time and never expire while you are subscribed.

CreditsPrice
500 credits£40
1,500 credits£105
5,000 credits£300
15,000 credits£800

Bundled monthly credits are consumed first. Credit pack credits carry forward indefinitely until used or until you cancel your subscription.

How does the free trial work?

Every new company signing up gets a 7-day free trial with 50 AI credits — no card required. The trial runs on the Production tier, so you can test Mill Certificate extraction, AI-driven cut plans, and order insights, whichever tier you ultimately choose. There is no separate trial sign-up: registering your company starts it automatically.

Do I need a card to start my trial?

No. Registering your company gives you 7 days and 50 AI credits with nothing but an email address. You only need to add a card when you are ready to keep going after the trial, at which point new customers get 50% off their first paid month.

What happens when my trial ends?

Once your 7 days or 50 AI credits run out, whichever comes first, your account pauses until you add a card and choose a plan. Your data, certs, and stock records are preserved exactly as you left them — nothing is deleted. Add a card any time to pick up where you stopped, with 50% off your first month.

What is the first-month offer?

New customers get 50% off their first paid month on any tier, on top of the 7-day free trial. Sign up online with a card via Stripe, or email talktous@gosmarter.ai for invoice-based billing. The offer applies to both monthly and annual plans. Contact us or book a demo and we will get you set up.

Can I upgrade mid-month?

Yes. You can upgrade to a higher tier at any time. The cost difference is prorated for the remainder of your current billing period. Your new tier’s features and AI credits activate immediately on upgrade.

Downgrading takes effect at the start of your next billing period.

Are there long-term contracts?

No lock-in. Plans run monthly or annually. Annual plans come with a discount. Cancel at the end of any billing period — no exit fees, no retention calls.

How many users are included?

Every tier includes unlimited users at your site. There is no cap and no per-seat add-on. Operations managers, QC engineers, stock controllers, and saw operators all log in on the same subscription. Your cost stays the same whether two people use it or twenty.

Scale covers multiple sites, each with unlimited users.

Where is our data stored, and what happens if we leave?

GoSmarter runs on UK and European servers only. Your data never leaves European jurisdiction. We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Your certificates, stock records, and cut plans are your data. You can export everything as CSV through the UI at any time. The API supports structured data access if your IT team needs other formats.

If you cancel, your data is available to export until the end of your billing period. After that, it is deleted in line with our retention policy. No lock-in, no data hostage situation.

Is GoSmarter right for every metals business?

GoSmarter is not right for every metals business. If you need a full multi-process MES rollout across every production line, it may not be the first tool to buy.

GoSmarter is the right fit when you want fast wins on cert admin, stock visibility, and cut planning — without a rip-and-replace ERP project. Most teams start on Starter or Workshop, prove value in weeks, then decide whether to scale up.

What are the hidden costs to watch out for with AI tools?

The most common hidden costs in metals AI software are per-seat licences that multiply as your team grows, professional services charges for basic configuration, long-term contracts with early-exit penalties, and integration fees to unlock API access.

GoSmarter does not work that way. Per-site pricing. API access included. Onboarding support included. No long-term contracts. The price on this page is what you pay. No surprises after you sign.

What does 'Standard' vs 'Priority' support actually mean?

Standard support (Workshop and Production tiers) means email support with a same-business-day response for most queries. Priority support (Scale tier) adds a named contact and faster response times for urgent production issues. Every tier includes onboarding help to get your first data loaded and your first plan running — support isn’t an upsell you have to negotiate for.
