What This Revenue Model Is

A consultant with a proprietary decision-making framework that took a decade to develop is delivering it one client at a time, while a consulting firm with 200 clients in that same niche would pay $30,000 a year to put that framework inside an AI tool under their brand. The methodology is already built. The licence agreement is what is missing.

Your AI decision tool, sold under their brand.

flat license
+ tiers
30-50%
reseller margin
recurring
per account

Partners rebrand your AI decision tool and sell it to their clients while you run the engine. You earn recurring license revenue without owning the end relationship.

White-label SaaS pricing applies: flat or tiered license fees and revenue shares leaving resellers 30% to 50% margins; AI delivery adds variable inference cost to model in.

Benchmarked to 2025-2026 white-label SaaS and AI pricing data (Monetizely, SuiteDash, softwarepricing.com). The decision-desk packaging is new, so treat configuration specifics as estimates.

Evidence tier: Modeled. Figures are modeled estimates, not observed results. Ranges are illustrations of how the model prices, not predictions of your results.
