AI-agent pricing held steady as low-density prices rose
2026-10-05 was a flat day for the market, with the index at 100.56 and no 1-day change.
Seven repricings were recorded. The most interesting move was finology.tech’s advisor plan, which fell from $149 billed monthly to $99 billed monthly, a change of -33.6%. The focus record shows density_vendors at 0 and neighbours_charted at 0, so there is no direct market-neighbour price path to compare for this move. Other changes were more mixed. claap.io raised its pro plan from €24/license/month to €30, or 25%. dayze.com raised dayzepro from $99/year to $120/year, or 21.2%. f1laps.com raised its champion plan from €6.99 /mo to €7.99 /mo and from €69.99 /year to €79.99 /year, with both changes at 14.3%. wholemind.workers.dev/briefing-service moved briefingservicereader from €8.16 / month to €8.33 / month, or 2.1%. finology.tech also reduced its annually billed advisor price from $129 / advisor / month billed annually to $89 / advisor / month billed annually, or -31%.
The longer view remains modestly positive overall. The headline index was up 0.08 over 7 days and 0.25 over 30 days. Individual was up 0.59 over 30 days, the strongest tier change, while Enterprise was up 0.47. Pro rose 0.21 and Team / SME rose 0.17 over 30 days. The 7-day picture was also positive for Individual at 0.07, Pro at 0.21, and Enterprise at 0.39, while Team / SME declined -0.06. This points to firmer pricing in Individual, Pro, and Enterprise than in Team / SME, despite the flat daily headline reading.
The watchlist shows that these price rises happened in LOW-DENSITY areas, with few competing vendors. f1laps had vendors68 at 15 and a density percentile of 19, while briefing_service had vendors68 at 18 and a density percentile of 22. Rising prices with little competition are worth a buyer’s attention. These pockets are worth watching, particularly where increases are paired with limited vendor density.
