In one line

Per authorised user per month, plus a small monthly add-on per user for each app beyond thirty.

What gets missed

The meter counts users in the connected SaaS applications, not the security people reading the output, so one large SaaS tenant sets the price. The audit logs it delivers are stored and queried at your own cost.
