| Hidden Overage Trap | Fin AI resolutions ($0.99/ticket) + Proactive Outbound Message tiers can double the monthly invoice above base seat cost if bot fallback rules aren't throttled. | Anyone who approves a ticket or updates a status field can be flagged in compliance audits as a full 'Fulfiller' ($105+/mo) instead of a 'Requester' ($0) or 'Approver' ($25). |
| Primary Negotiation Lever | Commit to a pre-paid Fin AI resolution block at $0.55–$0.68/resolution (up to 40% off $0.99 list) and convert occasional teammates to Lite seats ($20/mo). | Explicitly define 'Approver' vs 'Fulfiller' role permissions in the contract exhibit and lock a 'Swap Rights' clause allowing unused ITSM seats to convert to HRSD/SecOps. |
