Certification fees scale with your regulatory exposure — not arbitrary tiers. Fees typically represent 0.1%–0.5% of potential regulatory fine exposure, delivering 10:1 to 100:1+ ROI.
Pricing scales proportionally with your company's annual revenue and regulatory risk profile. All tiers include the full four-stage audit against all five frameworks simultaneously.
| Tier | Client Revenue | Certification Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Startup / Consumer AI | Under $50M | $50K – $150K |
| Mid-Market Enterprise | $50M – $500M | $150K – $500K |
| Large Enterprise | $500M – $5B | $500K – $2M |
| Fortune 500 | $5B – $50B | $2M – $10M |
| Mega-Cap / Critical Infrastructure | $50B+ | $10M – $50M+ |
Annual re-certification required. Healthcare diagnostics, autonomous decision-making, credit scoring, hiring algorithms, law enforcement AI, and any system classified as high-risk under EU AI Act Annex III.
Re-certification fee: 50–75% of original fee
Maximum 2-year certification validity. No AI certification older than 2 years should be considered reliable — models evolve, training data changes, regulatory requirements shift.
Re-certification fee: 50–75% of original fee
When a system doesn't achieve full certification, you receive a Detailed Findings Report. You remediate on your own timeline. When ready, return for a targeted re-assessment — scoped only to the specific findings, not a full re-audit.
| Remediation Window | Re-Assessment Fee | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Within 90 days | 10% of original fee | Scope limited to specific findings. Monitoring still active. Minimal incremental work. |
| 91 days – 6 months | 25–35% of original fee | Systems may have changed. Broader verification scope required. |
| Beyond 6 months | 50–75% of original fee | Original audit baseline is stale. Approaches a fresh engagement. |
Full four-stage independent audit. Assessment against all five frameworks simultaneously (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, GDPR, UNESCO). Detailed Findings Report with severity classifications. Certification Mark issuance. Continuous monitoring activation. Board-ready certification summary.
Remediation plans or implementation guidance. Consulting, advisory, or preparation services. Vendor recommendations or tool selection. Pre-certification readiness assessments. Legal opinions on regulatory compliance. We certify. We do not consult. This is non-negotiable.
Certification fees represent a fraction of your regulatory, insurance, and litigation exposure. The math is straightforward.
