Every plan runs the same Alkera agent. Plans differ in how much usage they include and what your organization can do. ## Plans | Plan | Price | Includes | | - | - | - | | **Free** | \$0 | Limited usage, 10 GB of storage, and native integrations across your stack. | | **Plus** | \$50 / month | Extra usage, 1 TB of storage, and access to all models. | | **Pro** | \$250 / month | Significantly increased usage, 5 TB of storage, dedicated support, and early access to new features. | | **Enterprise** | Custom | SSO, SAML, and SCIM. Audit logs, pooled usage, VPC and on-premise deployment, zero data retention, data residency controls, and SLAs. | See [alkera.ai/pricing](https://alkera.ai/pricing) for current pricing. For Enterprise, email [sales@alkera.ai](mailto:sales@alkera.ai). ## What uses credit Your plan comes with a monthly allowance of credit. These draw on it: * **Model usage.** Each message to the agent uses credit based on the model, the effort, and the work involved. It is billed to the person who sends the message. * **[Machines](/workspaces/machines).** Org machines bill by the hour while running. Standard compute is included. The allowance resets each billing cycle. ## Manage your plan Open the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar and choose **Manage plan**. * **Your plan** shows your current plan. Click **Change plan** to switch. * **This cycle's usage** shows how much of your allowance you have used and when it resets. * **Add credits** buys a top-up of \$25, \$50, \$100, or \$250, or a custom amount from \$5. Payment goes through Stripe. * **Billing** opens the Stripe portal for your payment method and invoices, and has **Cancel subscription**. Upgrades take effect immediately, with a prorated charge. Downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of the billing cycle, and you can undo them until then. ## Organization billing Org admins can buy prepaid credit for the whole organization in **Settings** under **Billing**. Buy it for: * The **Org pool**, shared by everyone. * A **Team pool**, for one team. * A **Member seat**, for one person. Prepaid credit never expires. ## Allocations Admins can set limits for each team and member in [Teams](/organization/teams). Each team's **Allocations** list shows its members' **Budget** in USD per cycle, their **Storage**, and what they have **Spent this cycle**. ## Usage Open **Usage** in the sidebar to see where credit goes. Choose a metric (**Requests**, **Budget**, **Storage**, or **Machines**), a scope (**Organization**, **Team**, or **Personal**), and a time window. Admins see spend and storage broken down by member. ## When credit runs out When an allowance or budget is used up, new requests stop and the chat says why, such as "Your cycle allowance is used up." It shows when the allowance resets. * **Admins** see **Manage plan** to add credits or upgrade. * **Members** are asked to contact an org admin. * Org machines stop. Files are kept. If a payment is refunded or disputed, the credit it bought is taken back. If that leaves a balance owed, usage is paused until it is paid. The next top-up pays it first. ## Related Hourly compute for heavy work. Roles, invitations, and allocations.
