## Instance Types & Pricing

Compute is metered by the minute while an instance runs. Monthly figures assume a full 30-day month (43,200 minutes).

| Instance | CPU | Memory | Per-Minute Rate | Monthly Estimate |
|----------|-----|--------|-----------------|------------------|
| op-20 | 0.5 vCPU | 512 MB | $0.0000694/min | $3.00/mo |
| op-22 | 1 vCPU | 512 MB | $0.0001389/min | $6.00/mo |
| op-34 | 1 vCPU | 2.0 GB | $0.0004167/min | $18.00/mo |
| op-46 | 2 vCPU | 3.9 GB | $0.0008333/min | $36.00/mo |
| op-58 | 4 vCPU | 7.8 GB | $0.0016667/min | $72.00/mo |
| op-70 | 8 vCPU | 15.6 GB | $0.0033333/min | $144.00/mo |
| op-82 | 16 vCPU | 31.3 GB | $0.0066667/min | $288.00/mo |
| op-94 | 32 vCPU | 62.5 GB | $0.0133333/min | $576.00/mo |

## What Is Metered

Only four things are billed by usage, at the same rate on every plan.

| Resource | Rate |
|----------|------|
| Compute | Per instance-minute, see the table above |
| Managed PostgreSQL | $6.00 per database per month |
| Persistent volumes | $0.30 per GB per month, while the volume exists |
| Build minutes beyond your plan | $0.0033 per minute |

Bandwidth is free and unmetered — there are no egress charges. SSL certificates, custom domains, load balancing, CI/CD, logs, monitoring and the container registry are not billed either.

Included usage offsets metered usage only. It does not reduce the base price, and it does not roll over between months.

---

## Managed Databases

Fully managed PostgreSQL with automated backups and monitoring. Other engines, Redis included, run as ordinary container applications alongside your services.

---

## What's Included at No Extra Cost

Every plan includes these features with no additional charges:
- Automatic SSL/TLS certificates
- Custom domains
- Load balancing
- Bandwidth, with no egress charges
- CI/CD pipelines
- Real-time logs, metrics and monitoring
- Branch-based deployments
- Container registry
- Environment variables and secrets
- Otto, the AI agent that deploys and operates your apps
- Hangars, cloud machines for your coding agents, free (agents run on your own plan or API key)

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How is pricing calculated?**
Every plan has a monthly base price that already includes an amount of usage. Compute is metered by the minute for each running instance, managed databases and persistent volumes by what you provision, and build minutes beyond your plan allowance. Anything above the included amount is added to the same monthly invoice.

**Is there a free plan?**
No. Plans start at $9 a month. Starter and Pro both begin with a 14-day free trial, so you can deploy and see how the platform behaves with your own workload before you pay anything.

**What does the included usage cover?**
It offsets metered usage: compute, managed databases, volumes and build overage. It does not reduce the base price of the plan, and it does not roll over into the following month.

**What instance sizes are available?**
Eight sizes, from op-20 upwards. Starter reaches op-46, Pro reaches op-70, and Growth and Enterprise can use every size.

**What databases are supported?**
Fully managed PostgreSQL, with automated backups and monitoring. Anything else, Redis included, runs as an ordinary application from a container image.

**Are there any hidden fees?**
No. SSL certificates, custom domains, CI/CD, real-time logs, monitoring and bandwidth are included. The only metered resources are compute, managed databases, volumes, and build minutes beyond your plan.

**Can I change plan at any time?**
You can move to a larger plan whenever you need it, and the change applies immediately. Cancelling takes effect at the end of the billing period.

**What is included with every deployment?**
Automatic SSL certificates, CI/CD pipelines, real-time logs and monitoring, branch-based deployments, a container registry, environment variables and custom domains.
