Revenue model

1. Monthly Subscription (Per Document Volume): Ocerra charges a recurring monthly subscription fee based on a document volume allowance. All features are included in one plan — no separate modules. The subscription includes integration support, purchase orders, and unlimited users. No long-term lock-in contracts; month-to-month billing.
2. One-Off Setup and Onboarding Fee: A one-off setup and onboarding fee applies to new customers. Professional onboarding support is provided to ensure customers are configured and live within 1-3 weeks.
3. Custom Integration Services: Ocerra's experienced team builds custom API or file-based integrations for customers with legacy ERP systems (e.g., Odoo, MYOB EXO, Microsoft Dynamics). This represents an additional professional services revenue stream.
