Public Interest Users on Limited Budgets — Fee Waivers Available

Other Users — Sliding Scale Subscription Fees

Operating Budget Monthly Plan Annual Plan

$1 to $10 million $500 $5,000

Why Charge Fees?

Accountability Counsel is a non-profit organization committed to the sustainable maintenance and development of the Accountability Console over the long term. To date, we have funded the multiple years of development of the Console through philanthropic core support. However, we are requesting that those in a position to pay for their use of the Console do so to ensure access for local communities, to keep it functioning as a live tool, and to support our work to add functionality over time.

Cancellation and Refunds

Registered account holders can cancel their accounts or turn off automatic billing at any time from their settings page, or by contacting us. To request a refund for a previously processed payment, please contact us.

How is Revenue Handled?

Revenue generated through user fees enters a dedicated account that is then transferred in a lump sum on a monthly basis into Accountability Counsel’s general operating fund. We review revenue to avoid actual or potential conflicts of interest in accordance with Accountability Counsel’s Gift and Revenue Acceptance Policy.
