How much an Optanik endpoint costs
An Optanik license is an endpoint license: Optanik endpoint management is priced per licensed endpoint, per month. The standard price of an Optanik license is $2.00 per endpoint per month. Larger fleets pay a lower rate: $1.75 per endpoint for 5,001 to 9,999 endpoints, and $1.50 per endpoint for 10,000 endpoints or more. Prices are in US dollars, billed monthly, before tax.
The endpoint volume ladder
| Licensed endpoints | Price per endpoint per month |
|---|---|
| 1 to 5,000 | $2.00 |
| 5,001 to 9,999 | $1.75 |
| 10,000 or more | $1.50 |
The rate is set by how many endpoint licenses the account buys in total, and that one rate applies to every endpoint. It is volume pricing, not tiered pricing: at 6,000 endpoints, all 6,000 cost $1.75, not just the ones above 5,000.
When the endpoint price changes
The price per endpoint changes when your licensed endpoint count crosses a boundary:
- Going from 5,000 to 5,001 endpoints drops every endpoint from $2.00 to $1.75.
- Going from 9,999 to 10,000 endpoints drops every endpoint from $1.75 to $1.50.
- Going back down below 5,001 or below 10,000 raises the rate on every endpoint again at the next bill date.
Because one rate covers the whole count, crossing a boundary can lower the monthly total. 5,000 endpoints cost $10,000 a month, and 5,001 endpoints cost $8,751.75 a month. 9,999 endpoints cost $17,498.25 a month, and 10,000 endpoints cost $15,000 a month.

Technicians are free in Optanik
Optanik bills endpoints, not people. Super Admins, Technicians, and custom roles who manage the endpoints are not billed, and there is no limit on how many you invite. Technician seats only cost money in Optanik Support, the separate help desk system.
What counts as an endpoint
An endpoint is a computer or server enrolled with the Optanik agent: Windows, Linux, or macOS. Each enrolled machine uses one endpoint license. Guests invited only to an Optanik Network (network-only, with no agent) are not billed as endpoints and don't use a license.
All the workspaces in one account share the account's endpoint licenses and one bill.
Buying endpoint licenses
You buy endpoint licenses as a quantity: the number of endpoints the account may have enrolled. Buy them in Settings → Billing. The first purchase goes through Stripe Checkout, and the licenses unlock once the payment confirms. After that, raising the quantity takes effect right away, with a prorated charge for the rest of the current billing period.
Having more endpoints than licenses
The number of enrolled endpoints should stay at or under the licensed quantity. If an account has more endpoints than it pays for, for example after lowering the quantity at renewal, Optanik asks you to delete the extra endpoints, and new endpoints can't be registered until the count is back within the paid quantity. You can also raise the quantity instead.
What a paid endpoint includes
Each paid endpoint includes everything in Optanik with no daily time limit: unattended remote control, VDI and app streaming, PowerShell and SSH, inventory, OS and third-party patching, software deployment, Optanik Network with device isolation, Optanik DNS, Domain Users, the BitLocker key vault, device configuration, file management, automation, reports, the REST API, and MCP for AI tools. Keyring is included read-only for your endpoints' logins and BitLocker keys.
Optanik Domain needs at least 5 paid endpoints
Creating an Optanik Domain requires at least 5 paid endpoints on an active subscription. The free plan and live demos can't create a domain.
One paid endpoint makes the owner's other seats free
With at least one paid Optanik endpoint, the account owner gets Account-Owner Unified Access: free seats on Optanik Support, Keyring, and OptaMeet. See the Account-Owner Unified Access guide for the details.
