The sales call starts with "how much per invoice?" The honest answer is "we do not count invoices. We count pages." A one-page invoice is one page. A three-page PDF is three pages. A 100-page bundle of mixed invoices is 100 pages. The meter counts the invoice pages the pipeline reads and turns into a document. A page the classifier routes away as a challan, lorry receipt, duplicate copy or proforma is not billed, and a page the pipeline fails to process is not billed. A credit note, debit note or bill of supply is read and turned into a document, so it is billed like an invoice page.
That is the published pricing: ₹1.40 per page to 40,000 pages a month, ₹1.20 beyond. At 40,000 pages that is ₹56,000. No seat fees. No minimum. No invoice counts. The meter is pages. Published on /pricing.
A rasterised image the pipeline reads. PDF, JPG, PNG. Multi-page PDFs are split page by page. Each rasterised image is one page. A page the pipeline reads and turns into a document is billed. A page it cannot process (corrupted file, unreadable scan) is free, and a non-invoice page the classifier routes away is free. Check /pricing and /terms for the exact rules.
Why per-page, not per-invoice
A one-page invoice and a three-page invoice are different jobs. The one-page invoice needs one OCR pass, one validation, one export row. The three-page invoice needs three OCR passes, three validations, three export rows. Per-invoice pricing would charge the same for both. Per-page pricing charges for the work done.
The other reason: Indian AP bundles are messy. A supplier staples the tax invoice to the challan. A weighment slip sits in the middle. A credit note from last week is in the same PDF. Once we read notes it counts as a document too, so it costs a page. Per-invoice pricing would charge one invoice for five pages. Per-page pricing charges for the invoice pages the pipeline reads; the attachments the classifier routes away are free. The alternative is to pretend the pipeline did not read the invoice pages. That is a lie.
Tax invoice
1 page billed
Challan
not billed
Weighment slip
not billed
1 page billed, 2 attachments free. The meter follows the page class.
Volume step
40,000 pages is the step. Below 40,000: ₹1.40 per page. Above: ₹1.20. At 40,000 pages: ₹56,000. At 100,000 pages: 40K at ₹1.40 plus 60K at ₹1.20 equals ₹1,28,000. Published on /pricing.
The step is not a discount. It is a volume price. There is no commitment. If next month you send 20,000 pages, you pay ₹28,000. No annual lock-in. No minimum. The meter is per-page, per-month.
What about failed pages?
No. A page the pipeline fails to process is not billed. The same applies to a non-invoice page the classifier routes away: a delivery challan, a lorry receipt, a duplicate copy or a proforma. The meter follows the work the pipeline actually completed, not the bytes you uploaded. Check /pricing and /terms for the exact rules.
vs per-invoice pricing
Some IDP vendors charge per invoice. A one-page invoice costs the same as a three-page bundle. That is a different pricing model. It is not better or worse. It is different. If your invoices are all one page, per-invoice may be simpler. If your invoices are bundles, per-page is more honest. Compare the two models on your actual paper volume.
The other comparison is annual. Some vendors charge annual commitments. We charge monthly. No lock-in. You pay per page, per month, for the pages the pipeline processes. Published on /pricing.
