Pricing

Licensed per site. Explained per resident.

A site licence, translated into what it actually costs per programme and per resident.

STANDARD SINGLE-SITE LICENSE

£6,000*
per site, per year
Based on three CST programmes in Year 1, that equates to around £2,000 per programme, or approximately £250 – £400 per resident, per programme for a group of 5-8 residents.
Managing multiple sites? The price per site reduces as you scale.
Training included
Maintenance CST included
Cognitive wellbeing included

More than three programmes. One annual licence.

The Year 1 calculation above uses three CST programmes to make the cost easy to compare. But your licence goes further - helping your team make structured cognitive care part of everyday life throughout the year.
CST programmes
Run multiple seven-week programmes throughout the year
Maintenance CST
Keep residents engaged after the initial programme ends.
Cognitive Wellbeing
Keep residents thinking, connecting and participating beyond the clinical CST pathway.
Outcomes
Capture what changes and build a picture from resident to service level

Who It's For

One licence can support a significant part of your home.

CST isn't appropriate for every resident. But in a typical older people's care home, the number who may benefit is larger than you might expect.

That’s enough for multiple groups and the licence doesn't stop when the first seven week programme does.

what that means per resident

Based on three CST programmes in Year 1:
£250 – £400
per resident, per programme
And the annual licence goes further - covering maintenance CST, cognitive wellbeing, outcomes and any additional programmes delivered during the year.
What’s included

One licence. Everything your team needs.

No add-on tiers for the essentials. Your annual site licence gives your team the tools, training and support to deliver throughout the year.

Full platform access

Ayla's CST platform, plus content to support maintenance and cognitive wellbeing.

Session-ready content

Structured content and facilitator guidance, ready to deliver without starting from a blank page.

Training and onboarding

Onsite and virtual training for activity coordinators, care staff, and new team members throughout the year.

Outcome measurement

Capture quality of life, cognition, mood and social life from residents, relatives and facilitators.

Reporting you can use

Turn outcomes into clear evidence of what changed - from individual resident to service level.

Ongoing support

Regular check-ins and practical support to help teams embed delivery and keep it going.
Everything above is included in the annual licence. Run new CST programmes, continue with maintenance sessions and use Ayla's cognitive wellbeing content throughout the year, without paying per programme.

A few things you might want to know

Do we pay per resident, per site, or per programme?

Per site, on an annual licence. We show the equivalent cost per programme and resident to make the investment easier to compare - you aren't billed separately for either.

How many programmes should we expect to run a year?

As many as your team can deliver. We typically model three CST programmes in Year 1, increasing to four as delivery becomes embedded. Your licence doesn't cap the number of programmes you run.

What does Cognitive Wellbeing include?

Ayla isn't limited to the seven-week CST programme. Cognitive Wellbeing provides structured content designed to keep minds active, strengthen connection and make participation visible for residents outside the clinical pathway.

Can we start with a pilot?

Yes. If you're not ready for a wider rollout, we can scope a pilot around a smaller number of sites, with clear measures agreed upfront so you can evaluate delivery and outcomes before deciding what comes next.

What about maintenance CST?

It's included. The same platform can support ongoing maintenance sessions after the initial seven-week programme, helping teams continue structured cognitive support throughout the year.

What happens if we have multiple sites?

We price multi-site partnerships differently. The price per site reduces as you scale, with proposals shaped around the number of services and planned rollout.

Is there a minimum contract length?

Yes. The standard licence is for 12 months.

Are there setup or training costs on top?

No. Setup and onboarding are included, with ongoing training and support throughout the licence.

Do we have to pay upfront?

Not necessarily. Flexible payment arrangements are available, which we can agree as part of your proposal.
