How billing works

The assessment process is forever free — you pay only for optional AI enrichment and expert validation. Download your data; server retention is limited.

The golden line: forever free without AI

Riskonami offers a forever free assessment process once you have an account that can run assessments:
  • all server-orchestrated phases, questions, and worksheets
  • manual / Skip paths (no AI)
  • deterministic report Start / Restart / Issue (without AI Fill)
You only pay when you choose optional paid services:
  1. AI enrichment / enhancement — optional AI help inside phases and report AI Fill
  2. Expert validation — optional expert review / certification of an issued report (uses expert validation tokens)
Everything else in the guided assessment is free — permanently, not a trial. For how to get an account, see How you get access.

Download your data (important)

Download your reports and export your session data while you still have access. Assessment data on the server is subject to a retention period and is not kept forever. Free and inactive workspaces are cleaned up first so we do not accumulate unbounded personal and organisational data. Target retention (product policy direction):
Account contextIntended server retention after last activity
Forever-free / inactive free sessions90 days (then purge)
Active paid AI / expert / access customers12 months after last activity (or longer under contract)
Enterprise contractsAs agreed in the order / DPA
Until automated purge jobs are fully rolled out, treat server copies as ephemeral: export anything you need for audit or ISMS records. Use Profile / session export and issued report downloads for anything you need to keep.

What costs money

AI enrichment tokens

Each time you affirm an AI enrichment gate, you spend 1 AI token (unless an access period or staff account includes AI):
PhaseAffirmed action
1Organisation profile enrichment
2Diagram AI import
3Control list enrichment
4Threat enrichment
5VL enrichment
5TEL enrichment
7Control responsibility enrichment
8Roadmap enrichment
10Report AI Fill (per Fill request)
Skip / manual stays free. Repair retries inside the same paid attempt do not charge again. Once-through assessments force enrichment after an intake confirm step (classify pack → review irrelevant files / gaps / assumptions → Continue). Start of the unattended run is blocked until you have enough AI tokens (or a grant that includes AI). This is not the free Skip-AI process.

Expert validation

Optional expert validation of an issued report consumes expert validation tokens (sold on Pricing or granted by your organisation). This is separate from AI enrichment and from the free assessment process.

Access periods (optional)

Some organisations buy a time-limited access period that includes the process and often includes AI for the duration of the grant. That is an enterprise / subscription style option — not required to run a free manual assessment when freemium access applies.

Assessment credits (legacy / some plans)

Older or special plans may still use assessment credits (reserve on session start, consume when you end the assessment). Where freemium process access is enabled, treat credits as secondary; the product intent is a free process with paid AI and expert options.
