# Frequently Asked Questions

**Why don't you charge per user?**
Per-seat pricing penalizes growing teams. Pilotlight charges per deliverable so
costs scale with revenue, not headcount — keeping margins predictable.

**What does the platform build fee cover?**
The build fee covers configuring Pilotlight specifically for your workflows,
compliance jurisdictions, reporting needs, and team structure. It's a one-time
setup, not an ongoing license.

**Can hosting be bundled into deliverable pricing?**
Yes. Many clients choose to embed hosting into the per-deliverable cost so every
building has a single, fully loaded compliance price.

**How does Pilotlight compare to hiring another employee?**
Pilotlight typically costs less than one FTE while enabling your existing team
to deliver multiple times more buildings with higher consistency and lower risk.

**What happens as we expand into new cities or states?**
Pilotlight is designed for expansion. As new jurisdictions come online, the
platform extends to support them without requiring you to rebuild your internal
processes.
