How the tier is selected
The calculator selects Starter for up to three workspaces, unless a selected feature requires a higher tier. It selects Unlimited for more workspaces or basic API / at-cost rebilling needs. It selects Agency Pro for SaaS Mode, markup rebilling or advanced API needs. This is a limited rule based on the displayed requirements, not a complete vendor suitability assessment. Enterprise requirements need a separate quote.
The first-year calculation
- Base subscription: monthly price × 12, or the published annual price.
- Recurring extras: (your monthly usage budget + retained software) × 12.
- Transition costs: one-time migration cost + (old-stack overlap months × current monthly cost).
- First-year total: base subscription + recurring extras + transition costs.
- Estimated saving: current monthly cost × 12 − first-year total. A negative result is shown as an extra cost.
The ongoing monthly equivalent divides the base annual cost by twelve and adds monthly usage and retained tools. An annual subscription is still paid upfront; the equivalent is not a monthly payment offer.
What you need to add
Usage is a budget you provide. We do not calculate exact charges from contacts or message counts. Include the applicable email, telephone, SMS, AI, hosting, support and integration costs. Allow for cancellation charges in the migration amount if needed. Taxes, currency conversion, revenue changes, financing and future price rises are not modeled.
The initial figures are an editable example. They are not measured costs from an agency. The model assumes twelve months on the selected plan with constant usage and no special discounts.
Editorial approach and commercial disclosure
Recommendations begin with workflow fit and total cost. A larger plan is not automatically better. Comparisons may recommend keeping existing software, using a focused tool or running a pilot first.
We participate in the HighLevel affiliate program and earn a commission from qualifying purchases made through our HighLevel referral links. This commercial relationship is disclosed above the content and next to those buttons. We act independently and do not speak for HighLevel. Links to HubSpot, ActiveCampaign, GetResponse and ClickFunnels currently have no affiliate tracking. Referral commissions do not change the calculator formula or justify recommending a more expensive plan. There are no paid ranking positions in these comparisons.
