v1.4 Launch Pricing (May 2026)
Kalku ships at v1.4 with six tiers across two axes — Personal (for individuals) and Business (one subscription per business). Pricing below is what new and renewing accounts pay from the v1.4 launch date forward.
Personal

| Free | ₦0 | 150/month drip | 5 | 5 |
| Lapo | ₦15,000 | 2,000 | 10 | 30 |
| Nepo | ₦30,000 | 5,000 | 25 | 75 |
| Odogwu | ₦50,000 | 20,000 | — (no daily cap; fair-use ratelimit) | — |
Business (buy one subscription per business — your hair shop and your food spot get their own books)
| Tier | Annual NGN | Annual Units (shared) | Daily Baseline (pool) | Contributors |
| Kalku Market | ₦50,000 | 5,000 | 100 | up to 5 |
| Kalku Mall | ₦80,000 | 10,000 | 150 | up to 10 |
Rollover multiplier max: 3× (Lapo / Nepo / Business tiers only).
Boost cooldown: 14 days.
Free tier is monthly-drip: 150 units a month, refreshed on the 1st.
Odogwu uses a rolling fair-use ratelimit (50 actions per 2 hours) instead of a daily cap.
Changes from v1.3 (May 2026)
This is a re-architecture, not an adjustment. Summary of what changed:
- •Pro tier removed. Custom-package discovery (
hello@kalku.ai) replaces it as the path for users beyond Odogwu / Kalku Mall. - •Solo Lite renamed to Lapo. Solo renamed to Nepo. No price change for these two tiers themselves.
- •Odogwu added as a power-user personal tier with no daily cap.
- •Business renamed to Kalku Market and split — Kalku Mall (10-contributor) added alongside.
- •Lapo and Nepo annual capacities doubled (Lapo 600 → 2,000; Nepo 1,500 → 5,000). Annual prices unchanged.
- •Free tier daily cap raised from 3 → 5 entries; monthly drip raised from 30 → 150 units.
- •Trial caps decoupled from any tier name. Trial limits are configured independently and may be adjusted from
/cook. - •Business subscriptions are now per-business. One Kalku Market or Kalku Mall subscription buys one business account; a user may own as many business subscriptions as they need.
- •Referral programme launched — share your code, you and your friend each receive 200 units when they go paid.
Grandfathering: existing paid wallets continue to enforce against their tier_snapshot_at_issue (the snapshot taken at issue time) until renewal. At renewal each wallet is rebuilt against the new tier definition.
