Modules

Every capability, one platform.

Portanus is built from focused modules — dogs, applications, donors, events, and more. Your plan is a bundle of them, and you can add any module your plan doesn't include as an add-on for $59/month. Turn one on when you need it, off when you don't.

How add-ons work

License only what you use

Plans are bundles

Essentials, Program, and Complete each include a set of modules. Most programs are fully covered by a plan.

Add any module

Need one your plan doesn't include? Add it on for $59/mo (or $590/yr) — enabled immediately.

Remove anytime

Drop a module at the end of your paid period. Your data is kept, so you can turn it back on later.

In every plan Program+ / Complete Always add-on   — Fleet, Store, Vendors & Housing are always add-ons; everything else rides a plan tier.

Common questions

How much does an add-on module cost?
$59/month each (or $590/year), added on top of any plan. Modules already included in your plan cost nothing extra.
Which modules can't come with a plan?
Fleet, Store, Vendors, and Housing are specialized and always sold as add-ons. Every other module is included in at least one plan tier and can also be added individually.
What happens to my data if I remove a module?
Removal takes effect at the end of your paid period and your data is retained — turn the module back on later and it's all still there.
Do add-on modules behave like the rest of the app?
Yes. Every module uses the same permissions, notifications, global search, and audit trails — there are no second-class features.
