Each plan is scoped to one region and the questions you need answered.
Plans are priced per region rather than per user, so partners can work from the same evidence. The zScale team prepares a proposal after a short conversation about the region and scope. Each plan can be paid by purchase order.

Before you contact us
Short answers about plans, pilots and data.
How is pricing set?
By region and scope: the size of the region, the number of questions or projects and whether partners share the workspace. The zScale team sends a written proposal after a short call.
Can we pay with a purchase order?
Yes. Tell us when your fiscal year starts and we will time the proposal to your budget cycle.
Do we need to share confidential project information?
No. Workspaces start from public data. Projects you add stay private to your workspace.
Where does the data come from?
Public sources including BLS, the U.S. Census Bureau, the Texas Workforce Commission, the Dallas Fed, the Texas Comptroller and IPEDS. The platform tells you which release each figure comes from.
What happens after 90 days?
You keep the written evaluation. If you continue, the pilot is credited toward the first year.
