It is indexed under Internal Developer Platforms.","source":"https://www.cortex.io","question":"What is Cortex?","confidence":0.6},{"answer":"Cortex does not publish its prices. Pricing is quoted on request, so the figure depends on your seat count and requirements. We record this as a pricing-transparency signal rather than guessing a number. Pricing changes often, so verify at source before relying on it.","source":"https://www.cortex.io/pricing","question":"How much does Cortex cost?","confidence":0.6},{"answer":"We have confirmed browser-based access to Cortex. That is the extent of what we could verify from public sources, so it may well offer desktop or mobile clients we have not indexed.","source":"https://www.cortex.io/pricing","question":"What platforms does Cortex support?","confidence":0.6},{"answer":"We have only confirmed a cloud / SaaS deployment for Cortex, so it appears to be vendor-hosted.
