Pricing, plainly
What you actually pay for,and why it costs less than a co-founder.
Oathloop runs on a flat subscription plus a share-of-revenue slice. The subscription covers the team — nine agents, the infrastructure, the nightly loop, and the morning briefing. The slice is outcome-aligned: it scales with revenue, not headcount. Below: the structure, and what it looks like next to hiring a technical co-founder of your own.
Section 1
What the subscription covers.
The subscription is the team. It pays for everything that has to be running before the first dollar of revenue exists — the agents, the infrastructure they live in, the loop that runs while you sleep, and the briefing that tells you what they shipped.
- Nine agents — three lanes of specialists — Build, Grow, and Report — standing up and running one company. See the full org chart →
- Infrastructure — cloud compute, CI/CD, observability, secrets, audit logs — everything required to stand the business up and prove it under SBA review.
- Nightly loop — agents run while you sleep — Build ships, Grow scouts, Report audits. By morning the work is done. See the loop in action →
- Morning briefing — a single page that tells you what shipped last night, what is at risk, and what needs the founder’s call today. See a sample briefing →
Section 3
Side-by-side,against a technical co-founder.
Same five dimensions founders price-shop on. The left column assumes a single technical co-founder with a market-clearing package; the right column is what an Oathloop company actually pays.
| Dimension | Technical co-founder | Oathloop subscription + share |
|---|---|---|
| Annual cash + benefits | $180k–$320k/yr fully loaded | Flat subscription (pricing finalized at kickoff) |
| Equity dilution | 5–25% of the cap table | Share-of-revenue slice (no equity issued) |
| Ops overhead | Recruiting · onboarding · churn risk · severance tail | None — agents are the team |
| Time-to-launch | 6–18 months (search, offer, ramp) | Days, not quarters |
| Risk profile | Key-person + employment-law liability | Outcome-aligned by construction |
