Pricing philosophy

Priced according to each school's context.

We believe every learner deserves access to modern digital school management tools. Instead of asking schools to pick a plan, we assess each institution's financial standing and operating context, then assign the tier that fits. Every tier runs the same complete platform.

Every tier includes the same complete suite. The subscription amount is the only difference, and it is set by assessment, not by plan selection.

How your tier is determined

An objective assessment, not a price menu.

We take time to understand each institution before assigning a tier.

1

Consultation

A short conversation with your school's leadership about your context, enrolment, and goals.

2

Assessment

We objectively review the institution's financial standing, the financial capacity of the school community, student enrolment, and implementation and support requirements.

Tier Assignment

Your school is assigned the most appropriate tier and a specific subscription within its range, then onboarding begins.

Why it works

A model built for equitable access.

Subscriptions at the Advance tier help sustain subsidized subscriptions at the Access tier. This allows schools in underserved communities to benefit from the same trusted platform at an annual subscription they can afford, while keeping Arcode financially sustainable for every school we serve.

Objective Assessed on clear criteria
Transparent Same suite for everyone
Sustainable Viable for every school
Equitable Access for underserved schools
Pricing questions

What schools ask about our pricing.

Do schools paying less get a cut-down platform?
No. Every tier includes the identical complete suite — all nine modules, hosting, backups, training, and support. A lower subscription never means fewer features.
How do you decide which tier we're assigned?
Through an objective assessment of the institution's financial standing, the financial capacity of the school community, student enrolment, and implementation and support requirements — not a plan you select yourself.
Why does the Advance tier cost more?
Advance is assigned to schools whose scale and requirements call for expanded onboarding, deeper training, and priority support. Those subscriptions also help sustain subsidized Access subscriptions for schools that need them most.
What if our school genuinely can't afford a subscription?
That is exactly what the Access tier exists for. Where our assessment shows affordability must come first, a school is assigned a subsidized subscription so cost is never the reason it stays behind.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every school can start with a 3-month / one-term free trial before committing, and the e-learning experience is available separately when you're ready to expand.
Start with certainty

Begin with a free trial, then an assessment.

Schools can start with a 3-month free trial before committing. The e-learning experience is available as a separate add-on, so you can begin with the core suite and expand later.
