How Setup Fees Work

What "from" pricing means and what moves your number.

Written by LucentLayer Support Team

Setup is a one-time fee, quoted before you commit. Published pricing starts at:

Build

Setup fee

B2B & SaaS — AI Resolution & Triage

from $1,997

E-commerce — Store-Synced Support

from $1,497


What "from" Means

The published number is the floor, not the ceiling. It covers a build with your core channels connected, your agent trained, routing configured, and a knowledge base in place. Your actual figure depends on scope, and we quote it after we understand what you're running.


What Moves The Number

Factor

Effect

Integrations

Native connections are quick. Custom builds are scoped and priced individually.

Channels

Website chat and email are standard. Each additional channel adds configuration.

Knowledge base

Writing one from scratch adds roughly a week of work.

Team complexity

Multiple queues, SLA tiers, and conditional routing take longer to map and test.

Migration

Moving a large historical ticket archive is scoped separately.

Add-ons

In-chat refunds and order edits, custom workflows, multi-store setups.


Software Costs

Your platform subscription is billed by the platform, to you, on your own account. That's separate from our fee, and we'll tell you what to expect during scoping.
