name: Litify FinOps
description: Financial operations and cost management guidance for teams consuming the Litify API. Litify is a per-user SaaS product built on Salesforce; API usage costs are bundled into platform subscription fees rather than metered separately. However, total cost of ownership must account for both Litify and mandatory Salesforce licensing.

cost_optimization_guidance:

  - strategy: Right-size user licenses
    description: Litify and Salesforce are both per-user. Audit active users regularly and remove or reassign unused licenses to control monthly costs.

  - strategy: Monitor Salesforce API daily limits
    description: Litify API calls count against your Salesforce org's daily API request quota (100,000 base + 1,000 per user license for Enterprise Edition). Implement monitoring via Salesforce's API usage reports to avoid hitting daily limits, which can disrupt integrations.

  - strategy: Use a single API integration token per integration
    description: Litify permits only one API token per integration account. Consolidate integration paths to avoid needing multiple accounts and contracts.

  - strategy: Batch operations where possible
    description: Use the Salesforce Bulk API for large data operations (up to 10,000 records per batch, 15,000 batch submissions per day) to reduce individual REST call overhead.

  - strategy: Leverage included integrations before building custom APIs
    description: Litify includes 30+ native integrations (DocuSign, QuickBooks, Outlook, RingCentral, etc.). Use these before investing in custom API development to reduce integration costs.

  - strategy: Negotiate multi-year contracts
    description: Litify pricing is contract-based. Multi-year commitments may yield lower per-user rates. Be aware of the up-to-7% annual auto-renewal price increase cap.

  - strategy: Track AI feature adoption
    description: LitifyAI and Litify ACE features may carry additional cost. Monitor adoption and value realization to justify add-on spend during renewal negotiations.

payment_terms:
  due_days: 30
  refund_policy: All fees are non-refundable.
  auto_renewal: Yes; price may increase up to 7% per renewal cycle.
