How Merlin Search Technologies pricing works

The structure is published without a figure. Cloud Utility Pricing, launched March 2023: an hourly rate while a site is in use and a lower rate, seventy percent less, while it is switched off; sites can be scheduled to operate only during working hours or powered down automatically when idle; the vendor states most clients save fifty to sixty percent on hosting and, at launch, up to eighty percent for sites not needed around the clock.

AI services are priced separately with what the vendor calls clear pricing to address generative-AI cost concerns. Merlin also has a pricing page at merlin.tech/pricing. Null means no figure is recorded, not that the product is free.
