Why one flat per-plant price
Most asphalt and aggregate software vendors price by user, by feature tier, by API call, or by integration. The result is that producers underuse the tool to keep the bill down — exactly the opposite of what good software should do.
PlantDemand prices per plant because that is the unit of operational complexity. Once you have one plant, adding another scheduler, customer portal, or AI agent should not change your bill.
PlantDemand vs the alternative (spreadsheets)
Most plants start with a shared spreadsheet that costs $0. The hidden cost is the time everyone burns reconciling it — every double-booking, every missed customer order, every “where is the latest version” Slack message. At a single producer’s loaded labor rate, the breakeven against $490/month is usually a few hours of saved coordination per week.
