Every account starts with $20 of credit. After that, pay for the models you use, or bring your own key and pay your provider directly.
$0
$20 of credit to start
Everything in the app, on the Metaphor gateway, until your credit runs out.
Pay as you go
for the models you use
For daily work. It keeps going when credit runs out, and you pay for what you used.
Custom
for teams and companies
For a whole company on one account, with terms agreed with you.
Requests go straight to them, and Metaphor doesn't bill you for the model.
Model usage through the Metaphor gateway: coding models and the image, voice and video models. It lasts 90 days. When it runs out on Free, requests stop until you add credit or move to Pro. Nothing else stops working.
Per request, based on the model and how much it read and wrote. Each request is priced once and shown in the console, so you can see where the money went.
No. With Ollama, OpenRouter, Vercel AI Gateway or Cloudflare, requests go to that provider and you pay them directly. Gateway credit isn't touched.
Yes. Owners and admins can set a monthly budget for the company and for each member. When a budget is reached, requests stop until next month or until the budget is raised.
The agent runs on your machine. Only what a model needs to answer goes to the model, through the gateway or straight to your own provider. There is no cloud copy of your repo.
Owners and admins can redeem it on the billing page in the console. It adds credit to your company.
