Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Multi-Tier Storage Pricing Complexity

high addon

RelativityOne charges different rates for three storage tiers: Review (active review module with most functionality), ECA/Repository (reduced functionality), and Cold Storage. Cold Storage is priced at 25-35% of Review rates but massively overpriced compared to actual cloud storage costs.

reddit

Review - data in the review module with the most functionality. Highest per gb/month cost of more than $4/gb in 90% of customers. Vendors will have to charge no less than $6/gb to stay in business... ECA - they call it repository but has less functionality and is priced at 1/3 less than Review so expect to pay $3/gb. Cold Storage - this is massively overpriced at 25-35% of Review - with the lowest price in excess of $1/gb/month. Those of you with AWS or Azure experience know that costs them $.01 per gb/mo.

2

aiR Document Inflation Due to Token Limits

critical pricing

Relativity aiR pricing is per 'doc' based on token size and limits. Documents over 2-3 pages can cause the total number of billable 'docs' to double or triple compared to actual document count, significantly increasing costs.

reddit

Relativity aiR pricing is on a 'per doc' basis. What qualifies as a 'doc' in their context is based on token size and limits, so if you have a number of documents above 2-3 pages, the total number of 'docs' on a project can escalate pretty quickly, possibly even doubling or tripling in size to the actual doc count.

3

Early Adopter Pricing Expiration

critical pricing

Vendors with early adopter pricing will see their costs at least double when pricing ends in 2025 or early 2026, forcing them to pass increases to customers or absorb losses.

reddit

Vendors that are charging unit rates lower than listed above have 'early adopter' pricing that will end this year or early next and their cost will at least double.

4

Per-User Licensing Fees

medium addon

Some vendors charge per-user fees that can add significant cost, particularly problematic when users need access intermittently rather than continuously.

reddit

$75/month for just 1 person to have access and they charge you whether that person uses it or not... You could call them to remove the person for those months you don't have someone using it, but they will bill you for the call (It's a PM rate about $200/hour).
