Pricing

Open source software, a fixed-price subscription

Both platforms are open source, under the Apache 2.0 license: you can install and use them without us. If you want the vendor at your side, the annual subscription is priced per vCPU, with unlimited users and agents and no usage-based billing.

The model

What is open, what you buy

The software is open source. The pilot, the subscription and graal Services come on top when you want the vendor at your side.

Open source

The software

graal Data Platform and graal Agentic Platform install and run without us: the code is open source, under the Apache 2.0 license.

Fixed price · 8 weeks

The pilot

One use case end to end, in your infrastructure, on one platform or both.

Annual · per vCPU

The vendor subscription

Fixed price or quote

graal Services

Integration, migration, training and operations, as you need.

Two platforms

One, the other, or both

The Data Platform and the Agentic Platform are independent: each one installs, runs and is bought on its own. Together, they complement each other: the Agentic Platform’s agents operate the Data Platform through its MCP server, under a service account scoped to one project.

graal Data Platform

From source to model in production, on your infrastructure: pipelines, orchestration, lakehouse, notebooks, ML and generative AI, governance.

graal Agentic Platform

The subscription

What the vendor subscription includes

GRAAL.SYSTEMS SAS, the vendor, stands by you to run the platforms in production.

Vendor support

One French counterpart for your platform, data and security teams.

Security fixes

Fixes are delivered with their release notes: you apply them at your own pace.

Qualified updates

Every release is qualified by the vendor before it is offered to you, with its release notes.

Signed images

Images are signed and pinned by digest: you verify their origin before installing them.

Tiers

Three tiers, for one platform or both

The tier follows your scale and your deployment context; your estimate details what it includes.

Annual subscription

Essential

One cluster, one team, unlimited users and agents. For an organization taking its first use cases into production.

Annual subscription

Enterprise

Several entities or subsidiaries on a single installation, each with its own permissions and branding. For a multi-site mid-sized company, a region or a metropolitan area.

Annual subscription

Public sector

Deployment with a qualified hosting provider, offline installation and extended support. For State operators, defense and healthcare.

What drives the price

A simple unit, under your control

The vCPU

The subscription is based on the CPU quota of the execution space, where your workloads run. You set it yourself: it is measurable, capped and verifiable.

See the technical specification

Unlimited users and agents

Data scientists, data engineers, analysts, AI agents: adding a person or an agent does not change the bill.

The tier and the services

The tier sets the scale and the deployment mode; graal Services are added at a fixed price or on quote.

graal Services

The vendor at your side

Integration

Installation on your infrastructure, connection to your SSO, your data sources and your tools.

Migration

Your Python and Spark jobs brought over from Saagie, Hadoop or a SaaS platform.

Public buyers

Buying graal

Two French public procurement mechanisms let you start without a lengthy procedure.

Procedure exemption. Since 1 April 2026, a supplies or services contract below €60,000 excluding VAT can be awarded without prior advertising or competitive tendering. The pilot is sized below this threshold.

Innovative procurement. Since 1 July 2026, a purchase the buyer qualifies as innovative can be awarded without advertising or competitive tendering up to the applicable European threshold, i.e. €140,000 excluding VAT in 2026 and 2027. The first-year subscription and integration can fall under it.

We help you size a first order below these thresholds and gather the documents your procurement department needs.

FAQ

About the software and the price

Is the software free?

The code of both platforms is open source, under the Apache 2.0 license: you can install and use it without us, with no subscription and no royalties. What you pay for is the vendor at your side: the pilot, the subscription and graal Services.

Can we take only one of the two platforms?

Yes. The Data Platform and the Agentic Platform are independent: each one installs, runs and is bought on its own. They complement each other if you take both: the Agentic Platform’s agents operate the Data Platform through its MCP server, under a service account scoped to one project.

Why subscribe if the code is open?

Because running a platform in production takes more than code: someone who answers, security fixes, updates the vendor has qualified before offering them to you, signed images whose origin you can verify. You can also do without: no subscription is required to use the software.

How is pricing calculated?

An annual subscription per vCPU allocated to workloads, unlimited users and agents, no usage-based billing: the bill varies neither with the number of requests nor with the number of people or agents.

Why are there no amounts on this page?

Because the price depends on your vCPU quota, the tier and the services you choose. You receive an estimate after a first conversation.

Is the pilot paid?

Yes, at a fixed price, on one platform or both. It is sized to stay below the procedure exemption threshold for public buyers.

Who provides support?

The vendor, GRAAL.SYSTEMS SAS, as part of the subscription. graal Services cover integration, migration, training and operations.

What if we stop?

The software is open source: it stays installed on your side and keeps running. Pipeline code is exportable and formats are open: you keep your work and your data.
