Credits

For up-to-date information on credits and their associated costs, see our credits page.

The Roboflow platform uses credits to give you access to powerful features across Data, Training, and Deployment. You’re always in control and only pay for what you use, when you use it.

Features that use credits are broken up into three main categories:

• Data - Storing, augmenting, and labeling content

• Training - Training new models

• Deployment - Running workflows and models on cloud and self-hosted infrastructure

Each feature consumes a different amount of credits based on the resources used, like storage or compute, helping prices stay fair and predictable. Credits are consumed regardless of whether the feature is used locally or on our hosted servers. See our credits page for a breakdown of credit costs.

To understand how your workspace is using credits, you can always view your Credit Usage.

Billing

Credits can be purchased in bulk at a discounted rate by talking with our Sales team.

For the purposes of billing, credits can come in three forms: included, prepaid, and flex. They are consumed in that order.

Included Credits

Every Roboflow plan comes with a number of included credits. Included credits reset either monthly or annually, depending on your workspace's billing cycle.

If you change plans mid-cycle, your billing cycle will reset, and so will your included credits.

Tip: Annual plans get a year's worth of credits upfront.

Prepaid Credits

Prepaid Credits are credits purchased in advance. They are consumed after your workspace runs out of included credits.

They are designed to give greater predictability, especially if you know you're going to exceed your included credits.

Flex Usage

Flex credits are consumed when flex billing is enabled, and after your workspace runs out of both included and prepaid credits. Flex credits are billed monthly for the credits used in the previous month, regardless of your billing cycle. Flex usage is optimal for those who want to ensure they are always able to use the platform without worry of losing access to features. By default, flex billing is enabled for all workspaces.

How Billing Works

Credits are consumed/used in order of:

1. Included: Credits included with your plan are used first

2. Prepaid: Prepaid credits are used after you exhaust all of the credits in your plan

3. Flex: Flex credits are used after the included and prepaid credits are used.

Enterprise plans may have custom billing arrangements that can differ.

Flex Billing

For most monthly and annual plans, flex usage is billed on a monthly basis to the billing method on file. You can enable/disable flex usage in the workspace settings.

Billing Threshold

Some workspaces have billing thresholds that dictate the amount of flex usage a workspace can use.
