Billing & Payment Methods

How you're billed

  • Chat is a flat $25/month subscription.

  • Developer Plan is a monthly credit amount you choose, from $50/month. Usage is billed per token and drawn from your credit balance.

  • Business plans are annual contracts with fixed-rate pricing for dedicated, managed GPU capacity — no per-token billing.

  • You're charged monthly on the date you first subscribed. Payments are processed by Stripe.

Developer Plan and credits

  • Your monthly credit amount is added to your balance each billing cycle after payment succeeds.

  • Only successful API requests are charged: input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price (speech models bill per character). Prices are on each model's page.

  • Unused credits roll over and don't expire.

  • Need more mid-cycle? Add a one-time top-up from your account's billing page without changing your monthly amount.

  • We email you at a $5 balance and again at zero. At zero or below, API calls are blocked until more credits are available.

Upgrades, downgrades and cancellation

Upgrading mid-cycle: the remaining days of your old plan are credited toward the upgraded subscription and your billing cycle resets.

Downgrading: takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle.

Cancelling: your plan stays active until the end of the period you've paid for. No further charges after that.

Payment methods

  • Credit and debit cards.

  • Business plans: invoicing and custom billing arrangements.

Refunds
