ComparEdge Pricing

Tools

Token cost is the o200k count of the tools list JSON, including schemas, before any tool is called.

• get_pricing

  Full sourced pricing record for one product: tiers with per-tier features, price range, annual discounts, hidden costs, capabilities, verdict, plan advice, category positioning, verification and links

• compare_software

  Structured side-by-side comparison of 2 to 4 products, each a full record plus a compact matrix (starting price, free tier, max annual discount, hidden-cost count).

• discover_software

  Find software by criteria: category, max starting price, free-tier requirement, or a keyword. Returns compact cards with the source link for each.

• get_hidden_costs

  The costs beyond the sticker price (implementation, add-ons, overage, support) for one product, with the intro context and category positioning. This is the data most pricing answers miss.

  Negotiation-ready true-cost brief for one product: real renewal-rate costs, the vendor cost-transparency score, discount programs that survive renewal, negotiation tactics with expected discount range

• get_price_history

  Price-stability signal, latest verified snapshot, last observed change and derived trend for one product.

• get_positioning

  Where a product sits on price against its category: starting price vs the category median, min, max and sample size — the most citable one-line stat.
