In Postman, single sign-on (SSO) costs an extra $6 per user per month, and bring-your-own-key (BYOK) encryption an extra $29 per user per month. Neither is included in the plan fee.

The critical detail: it isn't optional per seat
Both add-ons carry the same note: they're enabled at the organization level and purchased for all licensed users. You can't buy SSO just for the admins.
That changes the math substantially. A 20-person team on the Team plan pays $4,560 a year. Add SSO and another $1,440 a year lands on top - $6,000 total. Add BYOK as well and that's another $6,960 a year.
Why this matters
In most organizations SSO isn't a preference - it's a requirement. A company with an information-security policy needs employee accounts managed through the identity provider. There is no other way to revoke a departing employee's access from one place.
So for a corporate buyer, the real Postman price isn't $19. It's $25 per user per month. Comparing on the list price produces a misleading result.
BYOK concerns a narrower audience - teams in regulated industries need it, others don't. But when it is required, $29 per user per month is a serious line item on top of the plan fee.
A comparison without add-ons
In Lodos, all 30 modules are part of the plan fee. The Basic plan is $30 per user per month, and there are no per-module add-on purchases.
Let's be clear: Lodos's enterprise identity-management maturity is not at Postman Enterprise's level. For a large organization with strict SSO and audit requirements, Postman's management layer runs deeper.
Where the comparison is meaningful is small and mid-sized teams. There, the difference between a $25 API testing tool and a similarly priced full workspace is the difference between one module and thirty.
