Cloud Enterprise — instance sizing

Dedicated instance, real-time CDC enabled, unlimited records, schedules every few seconds. Pick the size that matches your workload — upgrade anytime without re-signing.

What counts as a record

Record limits apply to Starter and Business plans. Enterprise has no cap, though sizing affects performance. Here’s exactly how we count.

By source

  • CSV: each line excluding header
  • Excel: each row excluding header
  • Relational DB: each row
  • JSON/XML: each individual node
  • NoSQL: each document or key-value pair
  • Streaming: each message or event

How daily totals work

  • Per flow: max(extracted, loaded), not the sum
  • Daily total: sum across all flows
  • Monthly total: sum of daily totals
  • Daily count resets at midnight in instance TZ
  • Nested document workloads (API/EDI): multiply estimate by 4

Overage handling

  • 15-day grace period on a paid subscription
  • After grace: difference between current and next plan billed
  • Example: Starter on 10M records → +$300 (Business cost)
  • Upgrade anytime without a new contract
  • No per-row overage charges, ever

File-based flows are not counted. Copy Files, Move Files, Rename Files, and similar operations don’t consume record allocation. Many iPaaS competitors count these — we don’t.

Add-ons

Optional services and capabilities priced separately from base plans. All available across cloud and on-premise unless noted.

Simba pricing

Pay your AI provider, not us.

Most teams bring their own OpenAI API key. Simba uses it directly — your AI usage is billed by your provider, with no Etlworks markup. If you’d rather not manage that, the Etlworks AI wallet has auto-recharge.

Etlworks-managed

At-cost

Funded wallet with auto-recharge

What’s included

  • Fund the wallet once, set monthly cap and auto-recharge threshold
  • Same auto-recharge model OpenAI uses directly
  • Etlworks bills at-cost — no markup on AI provider charges
  • Useful when you don’t want to manage your own provider relationship
  • Switch between BYOK and wallet anytime — no contract change

Available on

All plans

Free with every plan

Allowance

Q&A is always free. Agentic work has a monthly cap.

What’s included

  • Q&A, explanations, walkthroughs — unlimited on every plan, never capped
  • Agentic work — building flows, executing tasks autonomously — runs against a monthly cap
  • The cap is small in dollar terms but goes a long way — Etlworks subsidizes it so a few dollars buys real work
  • No setup — works out of the box on every plan, no key or wallet required
  • When the agentic cap is hit: configure BYOK or fund a wallet to keep going

Per plan

Q&A: unlimited on every plan
Agentic-work cap: scales by tier — Enterprise ~2× Starter / Business

How most teams use it: start with the included allowance to evaluate, then configure BYOK once Simba becomes part of the regular workflow. Teams that want zero AI vendor management use the Etlworks wallet instead. You can switch paths at any time — there’s no contract or commitment around AI usage.

Do you mark up OpenAI charges?

No. BYOK pays your provider directly with no Etlworks involvement. The Etlworks-managed wallet bills at-cost — what we pay the provider is what you pay us.

Can I cap monthly AI spend?

Yes. BYOK uses your provider’s spending limits. The wallet has a monthly cap you set when you fund it.

What about on-premise deployments?

BYOK works in cloud and hybrid out of the box. Air-gapped on-prem deployments can use a self-hosted inference endpoint — talk to sales about specifics.

Enterprise · with a dedicated team

When you need more than software.

For organizations running mission-critical integration at scale — banks, healthcare networks, multi-region enterprises — we offer Enterprise contracts with a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) and extra dedicated resources. The platform is the same. The team behind it is yours.

What you get

  • Forward Deployed Engineer embedded with your team
  • Dedicated cloud resources, sized for your peak load
  • Custom deployment topology — multi-region, hybrid, air-gapped
  • Priority engineering escalation path
  • 24/7 SLA available with 30-minute critical response
  • Quarterly architecture reviews
  • White-glove onboarding and migration support

Best for organizations that

  • Process 100B+ records per year across many flows
  • Operate in regulated industries (healthcare, financial services, government)
  • Need air-gapped or sovereign cloud deployments
  • Run integration as a critical business system, not a back-office tool
  • Want a known engineer rather than a ticket queue

Pricing: Custom — built around your deployment, FDE allocation, and SLA needs. Typical engagements start at $100K/year. Contracts are annual or multi-year.
