Pricing signal: Indicative tiers sit ~15–20% below comparable commercial Java FIX production licences (FIX Antenna, OnixS) — competitive enough to offset a smaller marketing footprint, high enough to signal serious infrastructure (not commodity or open-source pricing).
1. Licence tiers (annual subscription)
Subscriptions include software updates, security fixes, and Standard support (see §3). Production use requires Professional or above.
| Tier | From (EUR/year) | Scope | Typical buyer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Evaluation | Free | 90 days · non-production · ExampleBank + Lucid packages · email support best-effort | Technical evaluation |
| Developer | 7k – 12k | 1 non-prod environment · up to 2 concurrent FIX sessions · unlimited dev codegen | Fintech, POC team |
| Professional | 28k – 48k | Production · up to 10 sessions · 3 counterparty profiles included (ROE → spec) | FX desk, mid-tier broker |
| Enterprise | 75k – 145k | Unlimited sessions (fair-use policy) · unlimited counterparty profiles · optional SLA & source escrow | Bank, large broker, vendor |
Perpetual licence (alternative)
| Tier | One-time (EUR) | Maintenance (year 2+) |
|---|---|---|
| Professional | 70k – 95k | 18–20% / year (Standard) |
| Enterprise | 220k – 340k | 18–20% / year (Standard) |
2. OEM / white label
| Component | Indicative (EUR) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Initial OEM licence | 130k – 300k | Redistribution / embed in your product; branding negotiable (“Powered by 4H” or fully white) |
| Ongoing royalty | 15 – 25 / session / month | Or 3–8% of product revenue — minimum annual floor applies |
| Fully invisible white label | +30 – 50% | Premium on initial + royalty vs “Powered by 4H” |
Contract covers: sublicensing limits, benchmark claims, spec IP (client ROE stays client-owned; engine + codegen remain Shimpinomori.NET), exit / source escrow.
3. Maintenance & support (if not bundled in subscription)
| Level | EUR / year | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 12k – 25k | Bug fixes, releases, Java compatibility · response within 5 business days |
| Premium | 40k – 80k | Named engineer · hotfix within 24h business · quarterly architecture review |
| Mission-critical | 80k – 150k+ | On-call options · production runbooks · soak certification support |
4. Professional services (architecture & integration)
| Service | Indicative (EUR) |
|---|---|
| Architecture workshop (2–3 days) | 8k – 15k |
| First counterparty integration (ROE → spec → certified logon + business flow) | 25k – 50k |
| Additional counterparty profile | 8k – 20k each |
| Performance tuning (client hardware, TCP, GC) | 15k – 40k |
| Production certification (soak harness + runbook) | 20k – 35k |
| Co-development retainer | 10k – 25k / month |
Day rate equivalent: 1,200 – 1,800 EUR (senior FIX/kernel engineer). Volume discounts on multi-counterparty programmes.
5. Ready-to-pitch bundles
Professional licence + 5 days/year support + 1 bank profile · “The engine you knew — revalidated 2026, ~21 µs ESP, same spec model.”
Professional licence + first counterparty integration forfait · Measured 3–4× TCP quote RTT vs QFJ on identical payloads.
OEM licence + 18k/year platform fee minimum · Embed under your brand; you sell connectivity.
6. What is included in every paid tier
- 4h-core — engine + tooling JARs, CLI (validate, codegen, parse-spec), templates
- Documentation — developer guide, performance notes, low-latency wiring (§6.7)
- Reproducible benchmarks —
examplebank-matrixmethodology on your hardware
Notes: All figures are indicative and exclude VAT. Final pricing depends on session count, deployment topology, counterparty count, SLA, and territory. Evaluation and ExampleBank materials are redistribution-safe; real bank ROE documents remain under client NDA. 4H does not claim sub-5 µs or “world’s fastest FIX.” Benchmark claims must use published methodology (homogeneous diagonal for speed; full matrix for interop). Shimpinomori.NET reserves the right to update this guide; executed agreements prevail.
