One ICS is one unique nuance activation in one interaction. Billing is outcome-based: you pay for what the SGM finds, not for what it processes. If the SGM finds nothing, you pay nothing.

​
How ICS accumulates

A /sense call with the empathy Protocol against a 400-word advisory transcript might activate five nuances. That is five ICS. The same call on a 40-word message with only one activated nuance is one ICS.

​
Where ICS is metered

Rate on SGM 0.2: £0.004 per ICS at spot. Atlas rates are contract-specific. Stage & Dive packaging ships with the public launch. Closed beta.

​
Suppression

The Protocol’s fidelityThreshold controls suppression. Activations below the threshold are not returned and not billed.
Set this low (0.4) for research and calibration; high (0.75+) for auditable production.
