# "Cognism Platform" enterprise plan) to method:searched, read off the live pricing page. Cognism
# now publishes named packages and an itemised feature matrix — it publishes no PRICES.

description: >-
  Cognism publishes named packages and a side-by-side feature matrix but no monetary amounts, no
  currency and no billing period. Every tier ends in "Talk to sales". Sales Prospecting comes in
  Standard and Pro, both including 5 seats. CRM Enrichment and Data-as-a-Service are separate
  products that can be bought as add-ons or standalone. API access sits inside Data-as-a-Service and
  is explicitly conditional: "API access requires a Prospecting seat". Consumption across all
  products is metered in Credits — 1 credit reveals 1 contact, and previously revealed contacts are
  free to view again.
notes: >-
  plan_count 4, price_count 0. No self-serve signup, no published rate card, no free tier and no
  trial on the pricing page — the only conversion paths are "Talk to sales" and "Book a demo".
