Where your money goes.
Most companies hide their margins. We'd rather show you exactly what it costs to run Athion — and let the value speak for itself.
Monthly operating costs
~$112/month to run everything.
These are total infrastructure costs shared across all subscribers — not per-user. As we scale, per-subscriber costs decrease.
Real-time voice relay servers, AI noise suppression, and WebRTC infrastructure that powers Flux. This is our single largest vendor cost — quality real-time audio doesn't come cheap.
Dedicated server hardware that runs Athion infrastructure. Amortized cost of the machines themselves — CPUs, RAM, SSDs, and replacement parts over their lifespan.
Electricity to keep servers running around the clock. No sleep timers, no cold starts.
High-bandwidth internet dedicated to server traffic. This is what keeps latency low and ensures a fast experience.
Domain registrations, DNS management, and automatic SSL provisioning. HTTPS is not a premium feature.
What's left goes directly into building and improving the product. New features, performance optimizations, bug fixes, and support. This is where your subscription makes the biggest impact.
Value
What this would cost you separately.
Separately, that's
$60–79/mo
With Athion Pro
$20/mo
Costs are approximate and based on current infrastructure. As we scale, per-subscriber costs decrease — and we plan to pass those savings on.
