# Plans and billing

> Compare the Free and Pro plans, and manage your subscription, usage, and spending limit.

Each workspace has its own plan. Go to **Settings → Billing** to see the plan, the usage, and the invoices. You need a role with the **Billing** permission.

On the Pro plan, each member is a seat. The included API calls and AI credits of all seats are shared by the whole workspace. Usage over the included amount costs $1 for each 50,000 API calls and $1 for each 5,000 AI credits.

On the Free plan, the limits are hard limits. When the workspace reaches one, the API or AI answers stop until the next month.

## What counts as usage

- **API calls:** requests from the API, the SDK, the CLI, MCP clients, and your sites. Using the app does not count.
- **AI credits:** an AI answer uses 10 credits, and a semantic search uses 1. See [Search and Ask AI](https://andesine.app/docs/organizing-content/search-and-ask-ai/).

The **Usage** section shows the use of the current month, and **History** shows earlier months.

## Upgrade to Pro

Select **Upgrade** and complete the checkout. The subscription renews on the first day of each month (UTC). The first payment covers the rest of the current month. You can enter a business name, a tax ID, and a promotion code at checkout.

## Seats

When you add members, Andesine adds seats to the subscription and charges a prorated amount for the rest of the month. Apps and AI agents never use a seat. When you remove members, the seats are removed from the next month. You get no refund for the current month.

## Spending limit

Usage over the included amount is billed at the end of the month. In the **Spending** section, select **Set limit** and type a monthly amount. When the workspace reaches the limit, the API stops and Ask AI shows **Spending limit reached** until the next month or until you raise the limit. With no limit, all usage is billed.

## Manage the subscription

Select **Manage subscription** to open the billing portal. There you can change the payment method, update the billing details, download invoices, and cancel.

To cancel Pro, the workspace must have 3 members or fewer. Remove members first.

When you cancel, the workspace stays on Pro until the end of the billing period, and then moves to Free. Payments are not refunded. If a payment fails and stays unpaid, the workspace also moves to Free.

When a workspace moves to Free:

- The Free limits apply.
- Pending invitations are revoked.
- Automatic versions older than 7 days are deleted.
- Custom domains of hosted sites stop working. They work again after you upgrade.

## Self-hosted Andesine

Self-hosted instances have no billing, and all features of the Pro plan.
