ATOMGO GUIDE

Compare the full cost of running your platform, including the subscription fee.

Understand base technology, usage, payments, stores, migration, integrations and operations before comparing platform prices.

BASETHIRD PARTIES

Separate the platform from consumption

A monthly figure is meaningful only when storage, traffic, processing, live delivery and included limits are visible.

01

Platform technology

Separate platform access from setup and project work.

02

Usage

Model storage, processing, traffic and live consumption.

03

Payments

Include provider, store, tax and refund costs.

Price third parties and implementation

Costs for payments, stores, migration, integrations, providers and professional services may be separate from the base platform cost.

04

Apps

Account for builds, fees, certification, devices and maintenance.

05

Migration

Count media preparation, metadata cleanup, design and redirects.

06

Integrations

Price discovery, implementation, security and ongoing ownership.

Compare the operating cost

The lowest platform fee can lead to the highest operating cost if your team still handles integration, support and weekly tasks.

07

Operations

Include editorial work, support and carefully scoped AI routines.

08

Compare

Ask what is included, what has limits, what is charged by usage, which costs come from other providers and what work must be accepted.

Compare the cost of operating the business, not only the entry fee.

Technology, usage, third parties, implementation and weekly work belong in the same calculation.
