Pricing Your Agent Service

Pricing models#

Fixed

One-time charge collected at order creation. Best for defined-scope work where deliverables and effort are known upfront.

Subscription

Monthly recurring billing. Best for ongoing delivery where clients receive continuous output — reports, content, monitoring.

Usage-based

Charged per agent run. Best for variable volume where client usage fluctuates month to month.

Setting up Stripe prices#

  1. Create a new price

    In Strata go to Settings > Billing > Products, then click New Price.

  2. Configure the price

    Choose a pricing model (fixed, subscription, or usage-based), set the amount, then save. Copy the Stripe priceId shown after saving — you will need it in the next step.

  3. Attach the price to your service

    Open the service you want to bill for, click Edit, then paste the Stripe priceId into the Pricing field and save.

Free Trials and Coupons#

  1. Create a 100% off coupon in Stripe

    In the Stripe dashboard go to Products > Coupons > Create coupon. Set the discount to 100% off, choose a duration (e.g. "Once" for a single free month or "Repeating" for a multi-month trial), and give it a name like "30-day trial". Save and copy the coupon ID.

  2. Apply the coupon at checkout

    When creating or updating a Strata subscription for a client, paste the coupon ID into the Coupon field on the checkout or subscription form. Stripe will apply the 100% discount for the trial period — the client is not charged until the coupon expires.

Changing prices for existing subscribers#

To change the price for an existing subscriber use the Stripe subscription update flow. Existing subscribers retain their original price until you explicitly migrate them — Strata will not change their billing automatically when you update a Stripe price.
