# connect0 pricing

Pay per use, billed in prepaid credits. 1 credit = $0.01. Every action has a
published rate. No subscription required.

Start free: every new account gets 100 credits, no card required. You see the price of every action before it runs, and
you only pay for what runs — model calls, agent runs, sandbox compute,
connectors, storage, ledger postings.

## What a credit buys

These are the rates we bill at. Your dashboard shows the spend as it happens
(live usage). Model-token and BYOK rates come from the live model catalog.
Everything you run burns credits at these published rates.

| Action | Detail | Credits | ≈ USD |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Model chat call | ~1K in / 500 out tokens (varies by model) | 3 | $0.03 |
| Image generation | one standard image | 40 | $0.40 |
| Sandbox compute | one minute of `sh` runtime | 2 | $0.02 |
| Storage | per GiB · per month | 5 | $0.05 |
| Web fetch | one `web_fetch` page | 1 | $0.01 |
| Connector sync | one materialise of a bound source | 2 | $0.02 |
| Ledger posting | one journal entry via API or MCP (reads 0.1) — available on every account, no subscription required | 0.3 | $0.00 |
| Ledger report | trial balance, explain, aged or statement matching run | 2 | $0.02 |
| Ledger period close | close, revaluation, consolidation or statutory export | 25 | $0.25 |
| Ledger storage | per GB · per month (first 2 MB free) | 50 | $0.50 |

## Subscriptions

A plan is a cheaper way to buy credits, not a feature paywall. Every plan grants credits
monthly and raises concurrency and included storage. Cancel any time.
Annual billing saves ~20% — you pay once a year, but credits still arrive
every month and expire monthly plus a grace period (an annual plan is
a price, not a 12-month credit bucket). The "Annual billing" column says
whether the yearly price can be bought today; "Purchasable today" says
whether the plan can be bought at all.

| Plan | Price (monthly) | Price (annual, per month) | Annual billing | Credits / month | Included storage | Concurrent agent runs | Purchasable today |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Starter | $19/mo | $15/mo | available — https://connect0.ai/start?plan=starter&period=year | 2,200 | 5 GiB | 1× | yes — https://connect0.ai/start?plan=starter |
| Pro | $49/mo | $39/mo | available — https://connect0.ai/start?plan=pro&period=year | 6,200 | 20 GiB | 2× | yes — https://connect0.ai/start?plan=pro |
| Ultra | $99/mo | $79/mo | available — https://connect0.ai/start?plan=ultra&period=year | 13,500 | 100 GiB | 4× | yes — https://connect0.ai/start?plan=ultra |

## Bring your own key (BYOK)

Already have better rates? Bring your key. Attach your own provider key
(OpenAI, Anthropic, …): you pay that provider directly for model tokens, and
connect0 charges a small orchestration fee per call — budgets, audit,
observability — and never marks up your tokens. Recommended for
volume/enterprise workloads with negotiated provider pricing.

## FAQ (short answers)

- **Do I need a subscription?** No. Buy a pack, or start on the free grant, and pay per use. Subscriptions exist only because buying credits monthly is cheaper.
- **Do credits expire?** Pack credits never; plan credits expire at cycle end + grace period; the free starter grant expires ~30 days after grant.
- **Balance at zero?** New runs pause with an out-of-credits message; top up and they resume. Data and connectors untouched.
- **Refunds?** Cancel subscriptions any time (keep the cycle's credits); unused pack credits are non-refundable but never expire.
- **Enterprise / committed credits?** Available — email hi@connect0.ai.
