Credits & Billing
Overview
The AutoGPT Platform uses automation credits for metered agent execution. This guide explains how usage is priced, how to review costs, and how to manage your balance.
How Credits Work
Credits are charged when blocks run. Depending on the block, the final charge may be fixed or based on actual usage, such as tokens, provider cost, elapsed time, data size, or number of items. For usage-based blocks, the platform may estimate a charge before execution and reconcile it against actual usage afterward.
Block Pricing
Block pricing varies by block, configuration, and usage. Review the estimate shown in the platform before running an agent; the final charge for usage-based blocks may differ from the estimate.
Your total cost depends on your plan and automation-credit usage. See the pricing page for current subscription and included-credit details.
Checking Your Balance
Your balance is available from the automation-credits wallet in the platform navigation and from Billing settings.
Viewing Task Costs
To review the cost of a specific agent run:
Go to your Agent Library
Open the agent
Click on a completed task in the left-hand pane
The task detail header displays Cost in dollars.
Running Out of Credits
If your automation-credit balance is exhausted, paid blocks cannot start until credits are added. Scheduled tasks may fail for insufficient balance. Final reconciliation for a usage-based block that already ran can leave the balance below zero.
You can add credits manually or configure auto-refill from Billing settings.
Adding Credits
Open Settings from your profile menu.
Select Billing.
Open the Automation Credits tab.
Select Add credits and follow the checkout prompts.
You can also go directly to Billing settings.
