Common Questions

FAQ

How does billing work?

Your monthly subscription fee is applied as usage credit. For example, on the Pro plan your $20/mo fee becomes $20 in usage credit. Any usage beyond your included credit is billed at the per-unit rates listed on this page at the end of each billing cycle. No surprises.

What happens when I scale to zero?

Compute costs drop to $0 immediately. Instances are suspended and wake on first request with sub-second cold starts. Persistent volumes remain attached and are billed at storage rates. This means dev and staging environments cost almost nothing when idle.

How are build minutes counted?

Build time is billed per-minute of actual wall-clock time. Standard machines count 1:1 against your allocation. Large machines use a 2x quota multiplier and XLarge machines use a 9x multiplier. Unused minutes do not roll over.

Can I set spending limits?

Yes. Every organization can configure hard spending caps with configurable alerts at 50%, 80%, and 100% of your limit. Choose between alert-only mode (services continue running) or auto-pause mode (services stop at the cap). You are always in control.

What does "scale to zero" mean for managed services?

Managed database, cache, and search dev tiers hibernate after 5 minutes of inactivity. They resume on the next connection with typical wake times under 2 seconds. You pay nothing for idle dev resources.

Is there an annual discount?

Enterprise customers get 20% off with annual commitments. Pro and Team plans are billed monthly with no long-term commitment required. Contact sales for annual pricing on any plan.
