Quotes & Pricing

A quote is a pricing contract issued before a workflow executes. It defines the model, the agreed price, the success criteria, and the terms under which payment is made.

Pricing models

WeaveOS supports four pricing models. The model determines how the final charged amount relates to the execution outcome.

Fixed

The customer is charged a flat fee regardless of actual execution cost or outcome. Revenue is fully predictable. Risk is carried by the operator — if cost exceeds the fixed price, margin is negative.

{
  "model": "fixed",
  "amount": 0.20,
  "currency": "USD"
}

Capped

Charge is limited to a ceiling price. If actual cost is below the cap, the customer is charged actual cost plus a markup. If cost exceeds the cap, the operator absorbs the difference. Suitable for variable-length workflows where you want to give customers a worst-case ceiling.

{
  "model": "capped",
  "cap": 0.50,
  "markupPct": 30,
  "currency": "USD"
}

Success fee

Charge only applies when the outcome satisfies the defined success criteria. If the workflow fails or the outcome does not meet criteria, the customer is not charged. Aligns incentives strongly but transfers outcome risk to the operator.

{
  "model": "success_fee",
  "amount": 0.40,
  "currency": "USD"
}

Hybrid

A base fee is charged regardless of outcome, plus a success bonus when criteria are met. Balances risk sharing between operator and customer. The most flexible model for complex, high-value workflows.

{
  "model": "hybrid",
  "baseFee": 0.05,
  "successBonus": 0.30,
  "currency": "USD"
}

Success criteria

Success criteria are deterministic validators applied to the workflow's output JSON. They define what a successful outcome looks like. Criteria use JSON Pointer paths (RFC 6901) to reference fields in the outcome object.

exact

Checks that a field equals an exact value.

{ "type": "exact", "path": "/resolved", "value": true }

numeric_threshold

Compares a numeric field against a threshold. Supported operators: <, <=, >, >=, ==, !=.

{ "type": "numeric_threshold", "path": "/satisfactionScore", "op": ">=", "value": 4.0 }

regex

Matches a string field against a regular expression.

{ "type": "regex", "path": "/resolution", "pattern": "(?i)(resolved|fixed|completed)" }

json_schema

Validates the outcome against a JSON Schema.

{
  "type": "json_schema",
  "schema": {
    "type": "object",
    "required": ["resolved", "resolution"],
    "properties": {
      "resolved":   { "type": "boolean" },
      "resolution": { "type": "string", "minLength": 20 }
    }
  }
}

Boolean composition

Combine multiple criteria with all_of, any_of, or not.

{
  "type": "all_of",
  "criteria": [
    { "type": "exact", "path": "/resolved", "value": true },
    {
      "type": "any_of",
      "criteria": [
        { "type": "numeric_threshold", "path": "/satisfactionScore", "op": ">=", "value": 4.0 },
        { "type": "exact", "path": "/escalated", "value": false }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Quote conditions

The conditions block sets operational parameters for the workflow:
