Pricing

Active-student pricing with every core feature included.

Otto's public pricing is based on the students a school is actively serving, not surprise module bundles. Schools keep tuition revenue; Otto takes no tuition or payment share.

All

core features included

Every public tier includes LMS, SIS, admissions, forms, communications, live and recorded classes, reporting, compliance, and AI.

0%

Otto tuition share

Otto does not take a percentage of tuition or student payments. Subscription revenue is separate.

3-mo

average for tiering

A school's tier is based on the average active-student count across the last three months.

30 days

notice before moving up

A school moves up only after crossing the tier limit by more than 10%, with 30 days' notice.

Billing count

Who counts as an active student.

Otto bills for the students the school is currently serving. Historical records, alumni access, and non-student users do not inflate the tier.

Counts toward the tier

  • Enrolled students, including not-yet-started students.
  • Students actively attending.
  • Students on a leave of absence or in externship.
  • Degree students registered for the current term.
  • Students who withdraw, graduate, or are dismissed during that month.

Does not count

  • Leads and applicants who have not enrolled.
  • Graduates and completers after the month they finish.
  • Withdrawn, dismissed, and cancelled students after the month they leave.
  • Staff, instructors, and externship site supervisors.

Three-month average

The billable tier uses the average active-student count across the last three months, so one large start date does not immediately move the school up.

10% movement cushion

A school moves up only when the three-month average exceeds the tier limit by more than 10%.

30 days' notice

Otto gives 30 days' notice before a higher tier applies. A school moves down at its next billing date when its average falls below the lower tier limit.

No-charge alumni records

Graduates, withdrawn students, and alumni keep access to their own records, transcript and diploma requests, and placement follow-up without counting toward the school's tier.

Fee boundaries

  • No tuition or payment share: Otto's revenue is subscription and add-ons, not a cut of tuition, refunds, payment plans, or student payments.
  • Payer-paid card fees earn Otto nothing: Schools may later choose payer-paid card fees where allowed; that saves the school money but does not create Otto revenue.
  • Fair-use overages are later: Usage well above included fair use for texts, calls, live classes, video, or AI can be billed at cost plus margin, but this page does not implement overage billing.
  • No checkout is live: The public pricing page does not collect payment, create subscriptions, connect Stripe Billing, or change a school's plan.

Advisor Launch - $6,500 one time
New-school workspace, approvals roadmap, document package, readiness checks, and 6 months of Advisor.
