AKOOL Seat-Stacking Threshold

AKOOL's pricing scales per seat, not per output or client account. For an agency managing 10 or more concurrent client projects, the cost of stacking seats can quickly erode margins. The Seat-Stacking Threshold framework helps agencies determine the optimal number of seats to purchase based on concurrent generation slots and credit allocation. For example, a Pro plan at $21/month (annual billing) offers 600 credits and 2 concurrent videos, but if you have 5 clients needing simultaneous video generation, you may need 3 seats, raising your monthly cost to $63. By mapping client demand to seat requirements, agencies can decide whether to absorb the cost, pass it to clients as a line item, or switch to a per-output pricing model. This framework prevents margin erosion and ensures AKOOL remains a profitable service offering.
