> 7. How much volume?

I think what I'm more interested in understanding is how is license enforced? Our team is responsible for facilitation of pilots and this I can see useful for those machine but these come and go every few months.

Sure thing! The service pivots around machines as it's core pilar. On a more fundamental level, we consider a machine to be the set of unique packages tracked together. So for your case, you'd spin up a pilot, run the script, then post the data to us. Since it's a new machine, we'll issue it a UUID, and track billing against that UUID. If you change the packages on a machine? That's a-okay! We'll use the same UUID, and bill accordingly :). When it's time to sunset a machine, use our soon to be released API to remove it, and billing stops!

To be totally honest, we're still working out all the wrinkles of how billing would work, what's fair to users, and how to track your usage, so feedback is greatly appreciated!
