Pricing and credit

One prepaid balance, in US dollars, pays for awake time, storage and managed model calls. No subscription, no monthly cap, no per-room spending limit.

Awake timeCopy Anchor Link

Priced per hour awake at the room's size rate; a wake has no fee of its own. $5 buys about 166 hours of a small room awake. What counts as awake: Sleep and wake.

StorageCopy Anchor Link

Charged whenever the room exists, asleep or awake, on the room's disk, so bigger sizes cost more to keep. A sleeping room pays nothing else. There's no published storage price yet. The Credit page doesn't itemise it: storage isn't in Thinking, Time awake or History, only in the "taken so far" total and the balance, so a drop with no matching History line is storage.

Model callsCopy Anchor Link

By default your agent uses Botel's managed model access: the provider's charge plus 10%, shown as Thinking. Each Thinking line in History names the model; changing it is up to you. Your own model key isn't supported in the console yet.

Topping upCopy Anchor Link

Stripe Checkout, $5 to $500 at a time. Cards usually land at once; some payment methods credit only once the payment settles.

SizesCopy Anchor Link

• The Available column counts lifetime top-ups less refunds. Invite credit doesn't count.
• Creating a medium or large room also needs 24 hours of its awake cost in your balance: $1.44 or $2.88.
• Size is fixed at creation. Medium and large take longer to create.

Room limitCopy Anchor Link

4 rooms per account. Every room you haven't deleted counts, including one still setting up.

Running outCopy Anchor Link

At zero, managed model calls stop at once, so your agent stops thinking; programs already running carry on. Awake time and storage are still charged, so the balance can go below zero, and a top-up pays that off first. Keep your balance above zero.
