Try it for 14 days. Your work is yours either way.
MARK-17 gives you a real trial. When it ends, productive work stops — but nothing is deleted and nothing is taken away from you. Here is exactly what you get at each stage.
No payment details for the trial. Talk to a person, not a form.
Trial
A real evaluation of the product, not a crippled demo. Starts at first launch and activation, not at download. No payment information required.
- • Advisor and the full consulting workflow are included.
- • The benchmarking engine and every test suite are included.
- • PDF reports and printing are included — watermarked.
- • MBX evidence packages are included.
- • The reports and documents it produces carry a watermark.
- • Clean and white-label output, and CSV, JSON, and audit exports, are not included.
- • External developer interfaces are not included.
Trial Expired — Read-Only
Productive work stops, and your work stays. Nothing is uninstalled and nothing is deleted — MARK-17 becomes a place to read what you already produced.
- • No new benchmark runs or scheduled runs.
- • No new Advisor or Task Agent work.
- • No new reports and no new exports.
- • Your projects, results, and evidence stay on your machine.
- • You can still open and read everything the trial produced.
- • A license turns productive functionality back on.
Business or Enterprise
The two paid license classes. Both are perpetual — you own the version you bought and it keeps working indefinitely.
- • Business permits paid client work, including consultants and agencies.
- • Enterprise is for organisations whose scale or procurement calls for it.
- • 12 months of update coverage included, optionally renewable.
- • When update coverage lapses, your licensed copy keeps working.
- • Paid functionality unlocks as soon as the license is activated.
Consultants and agencies: Business covers you
A Business license explicitly permits paid client work — producing benchmark evidence and reports you deliver to the businesses you serve. You do not need Enterprise merely because you have clients.
There is no checkout yet. There is a person who will answer you.
The previous Windows build was withdrawn and its replacement is in preparation, so we are not going to point you at a buy button that does not work. Email us and you will get a straight answer about where things stand and how to start.
You email us
Tell us what you need to evaluate and whether you are testing local models, cloud models, or both. Two lines is enough.
We answer with where things actually stand
Current pricing, which license class fits what you described, and when the next Windows build is available. A straight answer, not a brochure.
You start the 14-day trial
The real product, no payment details. If it does not do what you need, you have lost two weeks and nothing else.
Who this is for
- ✓ Consultants and agencies who have to defend a model recommendation to a client.
- ✓ People moving into AI consulting who need evidence, not opinions, to sell with.
- ✓ Technical teams choosing what to deploy and living with the consequences.
- ✓ Businesses spending real money on AI who want to know the expensive option is actually better.
Ask, and you get a real answer
Current pricing, which license class fits your situation, and when the next build lands. If MARK-17 is the wrong tool for what you described, you will be told that too.

Is there a trial?
Yes, and it is meant to be a real evaluation rather than a crippled demo. MARK-17 includes a 14-day trial that starts when you first launch and activate the application, not when you download it. No payment information is required. You get the working product: the Advisor consulting workflow in full, the benchmarking engine, and every test suite. You can generate PDF reports and print them, and you can produce MBX evidence packages. The line is drawn at output rather than at what you are allowed to do inside the application. The reports the trial produces are watermarked, and the formats that would remove that watermark — clean unwatermarked PDF, white-label branding, and CSV, JSON, and audit exports — are what a license unlocks. MBX is the deliberate exception, because it is provenance and tamper-evidence material rather than a finished deliverable. External developer interfaces are not included in the trial.
What happens when the trial ends?
Productive work stops, and your existing work stays. MARK-17 moves into a read-only state: no new benchmark runs, no new scheduled runs, no new Advisor or Task Agent work, and no new reports or exports. What it does not do is take anything away from you — nothing is uninstalled and nothing is deleted. The projects, benchmark results, and evidence you produced during the trial remain on your machine and remain readable inside the application, so you can still go back and look at what you found. Activating a license turns productive functionality back on.
How is MARK-17 licensed?
There are two paid license classes: Business and Enterprise. Licenses are perpetual — you own the version you bought and it keeps working indefinitely — and each includes 12 months of update coverage, which you can optionally renew. If your update coverage lapses, your licensed copy carries on working; you simply stop receiving updates.
I am a consultant working for clients. Do I need Enterprise?
Not on account of client work. A Business license explicitly permits paid client work, including consultants and agencies producing benchmark evidence and reports for the businesses they serve. Enterprise exists for organisations whose scale or procurement requirements call for it. If you are not sure which fits, ask sales@aibenchlab.com and you will be told which applies.
What does MARK-17 cost?
Pricing is being revised ahead of the next release, so anything published here today would be out of date shortly. Contact sales@aibenchlab.com and you will be told exactly where things stand.
Is my benchmark data uploaded anywhere?
No. MARK-17 is a desktop application and your benchmark data stays on your machine. There is no cloud sync of your results. If you benchmark a cloud AI provider, your test prompts are sent to that provider as part of normal API usage — the results still come back and are stored locally.
Which AI providers can I connect?
MARK-17 ships with a managed built-in llama.cpp runtime, so you can benchmark local models without installing anything else first. You can also connect Ollama, LM Studio, or LocalAI if you already use them. Cloud providers include OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, xAI (Grok), Groq, DeepSeek, Mistral, and Together AI, plus any custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Cloud providers use your own API keys.
What operating systems are supported?
Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit) is the proven customer platform today, and the only one with a released build. macOS and Linux are not available — there is no build to download and we are not going to imply otherwise. If you need either, tell us at sales@aibenchlab.com and it counts toward what gets built next.
Do I need a GPU?
No. You do not need a GPU to run MARK-17, and you do not need one to benchmark cloud models — that work happens on the provider’s hardware. Local models can run CPU-only as long as you have enough system RAM; they are simply slower. A GPU with enough VRAM makes local benchmarking substantially faster and lets you run larger local models. MARK-17 reports how each model fits your hardware, so you can see what your machine will actually manage before committing to anything.
Is there a refund policy?
Yes. The full terms are set out in our Refund Policy.
Still not sure which license you need?
