That's the starting point. Above that, the price follows your spend size and how many automations you switch on — you never pay for automations you don't use.

Common questions

Do we need to replace our ERP?
No. It connects to whatever you run today — and if you'd rather not touch your ERP at all, it works fine on its own.
Do we have to adopt everything at once?
No. Start with the one thing that hurts most — adding the next automation takes days, not another project.
How long until we see value?
Your first automation is live within a week. You see results and ROI within the first three months.
What do our suppliers need to do?
Nothing. They keep replying by email like they always have — Alinor reads the replies and puts the numbers where they belong.
Who owns our data — and does AI train on it?
You own the data, and AI doesn't train on it. We're also ISO and SOC 2 compliant if your IT team wants the paperwork.
Where do the savings numbers come from?
We set a baseline together; the system then tracks every change against it and keeps the full history.
