Token rates
- aster-work: 0.80 per million output tokens.
- aster-code: 1.60 per million output tokens.
- Input and output are metered separately. Pricing is versioned so later changes do not rewrite settled usage.
Prepaid balance
- Checkout shortcuts are 10, 50, and 5 to $1,000 USD.
- Balance does not expire. There is no subscription, seat fee, customer auto-top-up, or wallet reserve in the MVP.
- Failed and cancelled requests are not charged. Successful usage settles from the prepaid balance.
Default controls
- New accounts start with a configurable $1,000 UTC daily spend limit.
- An account may have up to 10 active API keys and 10 concurrent pending requests by default.
- Limits are operating controls and can change; the app shows the values that apply to your account.
