About this tool

This tool calculates GDP-normalised pricing for EDGE, the award-winning clinical research management system developed by the Clinical Informatics Research Unit (CIRU) at the University of Southampton.

The pricing model normalises subscription costs relative to England's GDP per capita, ensuring organisations in wealthier countries pay proportionally more, and those in lower-income economies pay proportionally less — making EDGE accessible globally while reflecting local economic reality.
