Pricing
Delphi Pronoia, the Metodix Delphi plugins and expert services in one price list. Panelists, theses and rounds are unlimited in every package. The price depends on how many people run studies and how many studies run at the same time.
Prices exclude value added tax (VAT 0%). Prices including VAT include the Finnish VAT of 25.5%. Businesses in another EU country with a VAT number are invoiced under the reverse charge.
Delphi Pronoia
The Delphi platform: panels, rounds, dialogue and export to analysis. The annual price is paid in advance, and the project price covers three months. Moving from one package to another needs no data migration.

In every package
- Unlimited panelists: panel size is not a pricing metric
- Unlimited theses and rounds
- Free viewer access: a team member who only reads does not use a seat
- All Delphi variations: argumentative, classical, real-time and barometer
- Round 0 intake, dialogue and export to analysis (DAE)
- Three languages for the panelist: Finnish, English and Swedish
Terms and discounts
- Non-profit bodies, such as universities, colleges, associations and foundations, get −30% off the list price without negotiation. The discount does not combine with pilot or campaign prices.
- Consortium is sold as a fixed-term annual prepayment, and the price is agreed by the number of organisations and users.
- For students and teachers at partner institutions the service is free of charge: the Student package is opened under the institution's agreement at no cost.
- The Student allowance is fixed: no extra credits can be bought for it, and unused credits do not carry over to the next month.
Credits
AI panelists, Round 0 conversations and the coding of responses use credits, and 100 credits cost €1. Every package includes a monthly allowance, which is used first. Extra credits you buy go to your organisation and are used only after the allowance. The cost is shown per study, and you can set your own ceiling.

Metodix Delphi plugins
Methods for planning and analysis. The plugins run in your own Claude environment (Cowork or Claude Code), so their AI cost is part of your own Claude subscription. The price is per installation per year, and one installation is one named user.

Ecosystem All 17 plugins | Full range | €2,400 |
- Course licence for the Planner package, for teaching: €490 / term, up to 30 students
- A package with parts still in pilot is sold at a −30% pilot price until those parts are validated. The synthesis stays under human approval: the plugin does the work, and the researcher approves the interpretation.
