Both Huntress SAT and KnowBe4 are quote-based today (we could not read a public per-learner price on either vendor's page on 2026-11-05). Huntress states a per-learner, per-month subscription billed annually and is a strong managed alternative; KnowBe4 has the broadest content library. Our distinct, public edge is transparent per-learner pricing plus a signed, verifiable certificate and Evidence Pack export. See COMPETITOR_PRICES.md for sources and dates.
