Refund Policy
Last updated: July 21, 2026
Our Commitment
Overview
Inteliworks is sold as a one-time install fee plus a monthly retainer. There is no subscription tier, no free trial and no annual prepayment. This policy explains exactly what is refundable, and when. It applies to engagements purchased directly through Inteliworks.
1. Install Fee
The install fee is a one-time charge covering the build and deployment of your fleet (Starter Fleet $2,500, Fleet Pro $5,000, Fleet Full $7,500).
- Before kickoff: refundable in full, no questions asked. Kickoff is the point at which we begin building — we will confirm it with you in writing.
- After work begins: non-refundable. Your fleet goes live on the call on Starter Fleet and same day on Fleet Full, so the build is substantially complete almost immediately after kickoff.
- Going live and full integration are different milestones. Going live means your agents are deployed and answering on the channels we can connect straight away. Connecting your CRM and phone number takes longer — same day on Starter Fleet, up to 2-5 business days on Fleet Full — because parts of it depend on your own providers and, for phone numbers, on carrier registration outside our control. If we miss the stated full-integration window, the setup fee becomes refundable again until we deliver.
- If we fail to deliver a working fleet, the install fee is refunded in full regardless of stage.
2. Monthly Retainer
The retainer keeps your fleet running — monitoring and alerting, plus platform updates and fixes ($500, $997 or $1,497 per month depending on tier). It does not include hands-on changes on request; those are covered by a Managed engagement, quoted separately.
- Month-to-month. There is no minimum term and no lock-in.
- Cancel anytime. Your fleet keeps running until the end of the month you have paid for.
- The current month is not pro-rated or refunded on cancellation.
- You are never charged a retainer for a month before it begins.
Example: You buy Starter Fleet — $2,500 install plus $500/month. You cancel in month four. You are not billed again from month five onward; the month-four retainer is not refunded, and the install fee is not refunded because the build was delivered. Total paid: $4,500.
3. Changing Tiers
- Move up a tier anytime. You pay the difference in install fee for the additional operators, and the new retainer starts on your next billing date.
- Move down a tier anytime. The lower retainer takes effect on your next billing date; install fees already paid are not refunded.
- No pro-rated adjustment is made within a billing period.
4. Enterprise Plans
Enterprise and custom plans are governed by your specific contract terms. Generally:
- Refer to your Master Service Agreement (MSA) for refund terms
- Custom cancellation and refund terms may apply
- Contact your Account Executive for cancellation requests
