How the bill is built
Enterprise starting price
Enterprise starts at €1,000+ a month and is billed yearly. Custom rollout and integration scope are agreed separately in the proposal, so the starting price does not cover every agreed part of the work.
Scale users
Scale is €399 a month on yearly billing. Extra Scale users are €22 each per month, so the number of users changes the bill beyond the plan price.
Agency workspaces
Agency is priced at €79 per workspace monthly, billed yearly. Its allowances apply to each workspace, so the number of workspaces is part of how the bill is built.

Agency at €79 per workspace monthly comes to €948 per workspace for twelve months. Enterprise rollout and integration scope are agreed separately in the proposal.
Underneath the bill
What you are really paying for
Content, review and distribution
StoryChief sells plans for content creation, review and distribution. The subscription covers a wider platform for editorial work, rather than only the records your team uses to manage briefs, reviews and handovers.
Users or workspaces
Scale has a monthly plan price and charges €22 per month for each extra user. Agency is priced per workspace, with allowances applying to each one. The bill depends on which plan structure you use.
Rollout and integrations
For Enterprise, custom rollout and integration scope are agreed separately in the proposal. Those agreed requirements sit alongside the starting price, so the proposal sets out the full scope for your business.
