See exactly what your institution would save by switching from per-seat AI licensing to ibl.ai's flat-rate model.
The calculator totals your current annual AI spend by headcount, then compares it with ibl.ai's flat platform fee. Because that fee is fixed, your cost per user drops as your team grows rather than climbing with every new seat.
It benchmarks Higher Education budgets against the per-seat plans teams compare most — OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, and Anthropic — alongside other tools you may already license.
You only need two inputs: your total headcount and the per-user price of the AI tools you license today. Pick a vendor from the list or enter a custom rate, choose a deployment model, and the projected savings update instantly.
The figures are planning estimates, not a quote. Per-seat costs use publicly listed vendor rates; the ibl.ai side combines our flat platform fee with roughly $1 per user per month of typical LLM usage. Your real number depends on usage and deployment.
