Pricing Model
EnterpriseBenevolentAI operates through enterprise pharma collaboration agreements and platform licensing — there is no self-serve access or published pricing.
Revenue models include: discovery collaborations with pharma companies (AstraZeneca, Merck) structured as multi-year agreements with upfront fees and milestones; licensing of its knowledge exploration tools as standalone software to pharma R&D organizations; and advancing its own clinical pipeline to inflection points for licensing or co-development.
Total funding raised is approximately $1.9B, with the company listed on Euronext Amsterdam (AMS: BAI). Contact BenevolentAI through benevolent.com for partnership and platform licensing inquiries.
