Most requirements management tools hide their pricing behind a sales process. We publish every rate, right here, because you shouldn't need a meeting just to find out what something costs.
What you see is what you pay. No setup fees, no surprise add-ons.
Move licenses as teams change. No penalty, no extra cost.
Every plan includes every feature. No tier-gating.
Two models, one goal: match licensing to how your organization actually works.
10 users x 3 projects = $900/month
100 users x 3 projects = $4,800/month
(50x$60 + 50x$30 + 3x$100 - save $1,500/mo vs. standard)
| Project Size (Requirements) | Monthly Rate |
|---|---|
| 0 - 2,000 | $400 |
| 2,000 - 5,000 | $800 |
| 5,000 - 10,000 | $1,500 |
| 10,000 - 20,000 | $3,500 |
| Beyond 20,000 | +$200 per 1,000 |

The benefits that set us apart from every other requirements management option.
TraceCloud's intuitive web interface means teams are productive within the first week. No DXL scripting, no heavy IT involvement, no multi-month implementation projects.
Navigable trace trees, coverage matrices, and automatic orphan/dangling/suspect detection give you demonstrable traceability that auditors can walk through.
Published pricing, a 45% competitor price-beat guarantee, and annual increases capped at 4%. No surprise renewals, no hidden professional services fees.
Unlike tools that gate their best features behind enterprise tiers, every TraceCloud plan includes every feature - traceability, baselines, approval workflows, dashboards, and reports.
V-model traceability chains, approval workflows with electronic sign-off, immutable audit trails, and baselines - designed for ISO 13485, IEC 62304, FDA 21 CFR Part 820, and ISO 14971.
Complimentary training, a dedicated Technical Account Manager, and a process workshop to map your workflows into TraceCloud - all included in your subscription.
TraceCloud uses AI to help your team work faster and smarter - summarize requirements, detect gaps, suggest traceability links, and improve quality - without losing the human judgment that matters.
We don't just publish our prices. We back them with guarantees that no other RM vendor offers.
Bring us any written quote from a comparable requirements management tool - Jama, DOORS, or equivalent - and we will beat it by at least 45%. We put that in writing because we're confident in the value we deliver.
Your rate will never increase by more than 4% per year. Period. Long-term partnerships require long-term budget stability, not surprise renewals that blow up your forecast.
Once we reproduce a reported defect, we commit to fixing it within four weeks. Not "acknowledged." Not "added to the backlog." Fixed and deployed.
A comprehensive, structured training program is included at no extra cost with every subscription. Your team is productive from week one - not month three.
We'll workshop with your team to map your existing processes to a Requirements Management Plan and a TraceCloud template - so you realize value in weeks, not quarters.
