Why SideNote Pro Shifts Agency Margin From Seats to Setup
SideNote Pro costs $49 one-time for one user on two devices, so an agency can equip a five-person delivery pod for $245 instead of stacking another per-seat AI subscription on top of provider bills the team already pays.

Why does it matter for agencies?
SideNote Pro costs $49 one-time for one user on two devices, so an agency can equip a five-person delivery pod for $245 instead of stacking another per-seat AI subscription on top of provider bills the team already pays. The Business plan at $349 monthly covers 10 licences with centralized purchase and coordinated issuance, which turns onboarding a client's Windows 11 staff into a procurement line item rather than an IT project. The catch is that clients must bring their own OpenAI, Ollama, or LM Studio keys, so the resale ceiling is low and the real agency margin sits in configuration work, not licence markup.
