Most lab software asks for a fixed monthly or yearly fee, whether your lab makes 20 bills a month or 2,000. Pay-as-you-go turns that around: you pay only for the bills you actually make.
How it works on Pulse1
- You start on the Free plan at ₹0.
- On Pay As You Go, every bill you generate costs ₹10, GST included.
- There's no heavy upfront software cost, and the plan supports up to 20,000 bills a year.
A quick example
A lab that makes 60 bills in a month pays 60 × ₹10 = ₹600 for that month. If the next month is quieter and it makes 30 bills, it pays ₹300.
When is a fixed plan cheaper?
Pulse1's Monthly plan is ₹1,499 a month (GST included), and the Yearly plan is ₹12,000 + 18% GST, which is ₹14,160 a year or about ₹1,180 a month.
- Below about 118 bills a month: Pay As You Go costs less.
- Above that: the Yearly plan is cheapest, and it saves ₹3,828 a year compared with paying monthly.

Who it suits best
New labs, collection centres, small labs and clinics, and any lab whose volume changes a lot from month to month. As your lab grows, you can move to a fixed plan.
