Model cost + 5%. Pay as you go, with no seats or subscription. Each request on your bill shows the model behind it, so you can check the math.

## How each model is billed

- **Auto**: Each request is billed at the price of the model that answered it, plus 5%. Turns before an upgrade are billed at the fast model's price, turns after it at the stronger model's.
- **Fusion**: One request is every advisor call plus the aggregator call, each at its own model's price, plus 5%. Tool calls inside the same turn reuse the advisors' answers and are not billed for them again.

## In your console

Your bill names the model that served each request, its tokens and its unit price. To estimate a month, run a small real workload first and read the per-task cost off your console.

## Billing questions

### What is the billing unit?

Tokens, input and output, at each model's per-million-token price plus 5%. Cached input is billed at the model's cached rate.

### Do I pay for failed requests?

To be decided before launch. When Auto moves to a backup model before replying, you are billed for the model that answered.

### Is there a minimum spend?

Each top-up is at least $10.

### Why not one flat price per token?

Auto's cost depends on how many of your sessions need the stronger model, which depends on your work. A flat price would either overcharge light users or lose money on heavy ones, so we pass through each model's real price instead.
