Billing & plans
Free, Hobby, Startup, and Enterprise plans, usage limits, and subscription management.
Billing is per organization, managed on the Billing page. It shows your current plan, subscription status, usage against limits, and the plan grid for upgrades.

Usage rates
Metered usage is billed from a shared, dollar-denominated credit pool (1 credit = $0.01). Each plan includes a monthly credit grant that resets every month; once a paid plan's included credits run out, additional usage is billed pay-as-you-go. Rates are the same on every plan:
| Usage | Rate |
|---|---|
| Requests | $0.10 per 1,000 |
| Eval runs | $1 per run |
| Publishing checklist | $0.10 per run |
| End-to-end checks (ChatGPT & Claude) | $2 per run |
| Submission pack | $5 per generation |
| Build minutes | $0.07 per minute |
| Bandwidth (egress) | $0.15 per GB |
Usage
The Billing page tracks Projects and Requests this period against your plan, plus a credit-pool breakdown (granted, used, and remaining) and per-resource metered usage.
Below the credit bar, the usage breakdown lists metered activity for the current billing cycle: requests, build minutes, eval runs, checklist runs, submission packs, and bandwidth. Each row shows the raw count and dollar cost drawn from your credit pool. If some credits were consumed but haven't rolled into the itemized rows yet, a Recent usage (updating) line shows the remainder until aggregation catches up.
What is metered
| Meter | Counts toward |
|---|---|
| Requests | MCP tool calls only (tools/call). Discovery traffic such as tools/list, resources/list, and prompts/list is not billed as a request. |
| Bandwidth (egress) | Bytes sent back to clients through the gateway, including streamed responses, widgets, and asset serving — measured from actual egress, not response headers. |
| Build minutes, eval runs, publishing checklist, end-to-end checks, submission pack | Each action listed in Usage rates above. |
Plan limits vs credits
Plan limits (projects, team seats, analytics retention, regions) are enforced in the dashboard — when a limit blocks an action, you see an upgrade prompt at the point of friction.
Monthly request limits on the plan grid are soft caps used for upgrade guidance on paid plans. They do not cut off traffic by themselves.
Credit pool enforcement works differently by plan:
- Free — when the monthly credit grant is fully used, the gateway returns
402 Payment Requireduntil you upgrade or receive additional credits. Paid-plan overage does not apply. - Paid plans — traffic keeps flowing after included credits are used; additional metered usage is billed pay-as-you-go at the rates above.
Platform credits
Some organizations receive platform credit (for example YC or partner grants). When present, the Billing page shows the remaining balance. Platform credits roll over month to month and are applied automatically to invoices until depleted.
Billing emails
Owners and admins receive transactional email for:
- Invoice receipts when a payment succeeds
- Usage alerts when included credits are mostly used (around 80%) or fully used
- Plan changes — upgrades, downgrades, and billing-interval switches
- Payment failures
- Monthly usage digest — a per-resource cost summary for the previous calendar month (when there was metered usage)
Manage the subscription and payment method from the Stripe portal; email notifications go to the org's billing contacts automatically.
Managing your subscription
- Upgrade: pick a plan in the grid; monthly and yearly billing are both available.
- Switch billing period: move between monthly and yearly at any time.
- Downgrade or cancel: handled through the Stripe Customer Portal via Manage subscription. Cancellations apply at the end of the billing period, and the status badge reflects it.
Invoices, payment methods, and email receipt delivery also live in the Stripe portal.
