description: >-
  FinOps view of Extensiv spend. Extensiv is subscription SaaS (3PL Warehouse
  Manager plus the broader order/inventory/integration platform), not a metered
  per-call API. Cost is a monthly/annual subscription tiered by users and volume,
  quoted through sales, with Starter/Professional tiers reported by third parties
  (~$550 and ~$950/month) and custom Enterprise pricing. The REST API is included
  with the subscription; there is no published per-request API charge, so API
  usage does not generate a separate line item. The main cost levers are the
  subscription tier, seat/user count, and any add-on modules or integrations.
notes: >-
  Extensiv does not publish an official price list; figures are indicative and
  must be confirmed with sales. Treat API integration cost as engineering effort
  plus the base subscription, not a usage meter.
