Transparent guidance for your AI project

AI projects can rarely be priced as a flat rate, because scope, technical requirements, and data foundations vary greatly from company to company. Our price overview therefore shows you which cost components you can generally expect and how a project is typically structured.

The total costs are made up of the appropriate software license, possible services for setup, customization, or data preparation, as well as usage-based fees for AI models, storage, or data access.

Which components are actually relevant depends on your specific use case.

This gives you clear guidance in advance, without forcing your project into a rigid package. We will prepare a binding quote after an initial conversation, once requirements, data situation, desired functions, and technical effort can be realistically assessed.

If you have any questions about our prices, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Our offer is aimed at business customers, therefore our prices are to be understood in euros (€), net plus statutory taxes.

Software licenses

Usage fees for AI models, tools and data access

In addition to license and project costs, usage-based costs may arise. These depend in particular on the AI model used, the number of requests, the amount of data, image or audio processing, and the chosen infrastructure.

Typical usage-based costs:

• Text processing based on input, output and storage tokens (cached tokens)
• Access to Vimmera Cortex or vector stores
• Code interpreter sessions
• Image analysis and image generation
• Video generation
• Audio transcriptions
• Realtime speech input
• Caching of thread or context information

As a guideline, token costs depending on the model are approximately in the following ranges:

Usage	Guideline net
Input tokens	from €0.36 per 1 million tokens
Cached input tokens	from €0.10 per 1 million tokens
Output tokens	from €2.45 per 1 million tokens
Code interpreter (code execution in the background)	from €0.05 per session
Vector store access (or other tool calls)	€3.80 per 1,000 accesses (calls)
Audio upload / transcription	€0.02 per audio minute
Realtime audio input	€0.04 per audio minute
Image generation	from €0.10 to approx. €0.50 per image, depending on model and resolution

We will agree on the specific model and infrastructure choice with you. From this, the resulting costs are determined individually. Token costs depend both on the selected/used AI model (e.g. LLM) and on the hosting location, infrastructure, and other factors.

Price example for higher-priced LLMs: Very powerful LLMs with reasoning algorithms and very large context lengths are billed for input tokens from approx. €1.82 per 1 million tokens, cached input tokens from approx. €0.40 per 1 million tokens, and output tokens from approx. €13.30 per 1 million tokens.

The usage-based fees are billed monthly based on the usage determined via Vimmera Now or Vimmera Studio.

Explanations of the technical terms

To help you better understand the pricing overview, we briefly explain the most important components of our AI platforms.

The Code Interpreter is an execution environment for AI applications in which calculations, data analyses, and file-based tasks can be performed directly by the AI. It enables an AI assistant not only to formulate answers, but also to actively work with data, for example by evaluating tables, processing files, performing calculations, generating charts, or carrying out technical intermediate steps in a traceable way. This allows the AI assistant to handle more complex tasks more reliably and deliver results based on actual calculations or file contents.

A Session is a time-limited working environment in which an AI application can retain information, intermediate results, and the current processing status during use. Within a session, the AI assistant can work coherently, refer to previous inputs in the current process, and continue tasks step by step. This means information does not have to be transferred again with every single request, but remains available during the ongoing session. A session therefore helps to keep conversations, calculations, file processing, or other work steps together in a meaningful and consistent way.

Input Tokens are the units of information that are passed to an AI model so that it can understand and process a request. These include, for example, the user input, system instructions, conversation history, inserted texts, file contents, or additional context information from connected knowledge sources. The AI does not process these contents as whole words, but in smaller text units called tokens. The more information is passed to the model, the more input tokens are used. Input tokens therefore determine how much context an AI assistant can take into account when processing a request and also form an important basis for the technical processing and billing of AI requests.

Cached Input Tokens are input tokens that an AI model can reuse for a request because the same or very similar context components have already been processed previously. This applies, for example, to recurring system instructions, longer unchanged prompts, fixed context blocks, or content that is sent identically with multiple requests. Instead of processing these contents completely anew each time, they can be technically cached and taken into account as “cached.” This allows repeated requests to be processed more efficiently and usually more cheaply than completely new input tokens. Cached input tokens are therefore particularly relevant for AI applications that frequently work with the same basic instructions, document excerpts, or recurring context information.

Output Tokens are the units of information that an AI model generates as a response. These include, for example, written texts, summaries, explanations, table contents, code, structured data, or other content output by the model. While input tokens describe the information passed to the model, output tokens describe the result returned by the model. The longer or more detailed a response is, the more output tokens are generated. Output tokens are therefore important for technical processing, possible response length, and the billing of AI requests.

Vector store accesses are queries to a knowledge or document database in which content is stored not only as normal text, but as so-called vectors. An AI system uses such accesses to find information matching a user question from stored documents, knowledge articles, product data, or other sources. The search is not based only on exact keywords, but on semantic similarity. This allows an AI assistant to retrieve relevant text passages or data records even if the question is phrased differently from the stored content. Vector store accesses are therefore particularly important when an AI application is intended to work with company-specific knowledge and generate answers based on suitable sources or document excerpts.

Private mode is a variant of an assistant/agent or tool that operates without any external access options, viewing, or storage. Data is only used at the moment it is actually needed. No history is created. This ensures maximum data protection and even the most confidential data can be processed securely in the AI systems. For example, private mode can be used by development teams, NGOs, or works councils when only a specific person or group of people is allowed to access data and even administrators must not have access (no backdoors).

Realtime audio input refers to audio data that is transmitted directly and with virtually no delay to an AI system during ongoing use. Speech is not uploaded as a finished file, but processed continuously as an audio stream. This allows an AI assistant to recognize spoken input directly, evaluate it, and respond to it.

Audio upload for transcriptions refers to the ability to pass existing audio files to an AI system so that text is automatically generated from them. These can be, for example, recordings from a meeting assistant, interviews, phone notes, training sessions, voice memos, or external audio sources.

The AI processes the uploaded audio file and converts the spoken content into a written transcript. This transcript can then be reused, for example for summaries, minutes, task lists, knowledge articles, documentation, or structured further processing in an AI application. Audio uploads for transcriptions are therefore particularly useful when spoken information should be made retrospectively analyzable, searchable, and documentable.

Vimmera Cortex is the knowledge base for your AI applications. Company information, documents, product data, service knowledge, or other content can be stored there in a structured way and made usable for AI systems. A Cortex ensures that an AI assistant does not use only general knowledge, but can access relevant information from your company.

Vimmera Assist is a custom-configurable AI assistant for specific tasks, departments, or use cases. An Assist can, for example, answer internal questions, support employees, prepare service requests, create texts, or use information from a Cortex. Depending on the need, an Assist can be equipped with specific roles, rules, knowledge sources, and functions.

Examples of Assist:

• Company GPT
• Web search assistants
• First-level support
• Document editing / document creation
• Document research
• Knowledge management assistants
• Onboarding and offboarding assistants

Vimmera Tool is a special AI function or extension with which specific tasks can be automated or supported. Tools can, for example, analyze data, structure content, prepare documents, access interfaces, or facilitate certain recurring processes. They extend one or more AI assistants with additional capabilities.

Examples of tools:

• Meeting assistant (meeting recordings)
• Translation assistant (translations)
• Transcription assistant (knowledge management)
• Invoice booking assistant

Vimmera Webchat is a chatbot for intranet or internet that can be embedded on a website. It enables employees, customers, or other user groups to interact directly with an AI system via a chat interface. Depending on the configuration, a webchat can access company knowledge from a Cortex, be connected to an Assist, or use certain tools.

Examples of webchat:

• Mera on our homepage

Simply put: The Cortex provides knowledge, the Assist uses this knowledge in dialogue, a Tool extends the AI with specific functions or process steps, and the Webchat makes the AI usable via a website.

Data protection and hosting

Data protection and security are part of every solution. Depending on the project requirements, we individually agree on hosting location, access rights, role model, logging, and data processing.

Custom hosting models, hosting in Germany, or on-premise solutions are possible after technical review and by separate agreement.

Data preparation for better AI results

Company data can be stored directly in Vimmera Cortex and made usable for AI applications. However, with larger amounts of data or poorly readable data formats, confusion, inaccurate results, or mixed information can occur.

That is why Vimmera AI offers advanced data preparation. In this process, company knowledge is not only stored, but structured, linked, and optimized for AI systems. This allows assistants to use more relevant contexts and generate answers more reliably.

We particularly recommend this data preparation for complex documents, extensive product information, technical documentation, service knowledge, or large internal knowledge bases.

Data preparation services are billed based on time and effort (see services).
