FAQ

What finance and partnerships teams usually ask.

How does the MAU calculation work?

We track unique, authenticated end users that access your instance within a given calendar month. Dormant users are not billed, and detailed ledgers are provided for finance review.

When do invoices go out?

Incubator is free. Pro and Enterprise invoices publish at month-end with a 15-day review window before auto-collection.

Can we supply our own infrastructure?

Yes. Enterprise customers may deploy inside their preferred cloud or data center and connect SocialCloud services through a hardened backbone.
