Credit and usage

#One credit for everything

The account has one prepaid credit, in dollars. Every step Rekhu takes, in Rekhu Builder, T-Design or any other product, on any site, is paid from it at the price shown in the account. There is no subscription, and credit you top up does not expire.

A new account starts with $10 credit, without a card. The free starting credit is spent before credit you paid for.

#Top up

1. Open Billing. The Credit tab shows your balance.
2. Choose an amount. $25, $100 or $250, or any amount from $10.
3. Press Pay with card. You pay in the account itself, without leaving it.
4. Check your balance. The credit appears within a minute after the payment is confirmed. A bank payment can take a few days.

VAT follows your billing country. Check your details under Company before you pay. Each top-up gets a receipt as PDF under Invoices.

The Credit tab also lists your top-ups and every movement of the balance, with a chart of the balance over time. A top-up that was started but not paid shows Pay now.

#When the credit runs low

You get a warning under the bell and by e-mail when the balance runs low, and a red notice in the account when it is under $10. When the credit is empty, work stops until you top up.

#The most one message may cost

By default a message works until the job is done, as long as the balance pays for it. To cap it:

1. Open Preferences → General.
2. Fill in Most one message may cost, between $0.25 and $50.
3. Save changes.

A message then stops at that amount. What was done so far stands; say "continue" in the chat to go on. A message also stops when the same step fails three times in a row. Schedules and Discover have caps of their own.

#Usage

The owner sees the Usage tab under Billing: what each product, site, model or day used in a month.

1. Pick the month.
2. Pick how to group it: per product, per site, per model or per day.
3. Read the table. Calls, sessions, input and output tokens, cached tokens and the cost of each row, with the month's total on top.

Every product has its own tile, such as Rekhu Builder and T-Design, and a chart shows the month day by day, a colour per product.

The dashboard shows the period's spend against the period before, how long the credit lasts at this month's pace, and the last 30 days per product. Usage in detail takes you to the Usage tab.

#Bill your own clients

Every site has its own line, because every call carries the key of its site. Use the Usage tab per site to see what each client's site cost you. Under Clients you can download a month per client as CSV: their own work and the work you did in their projects. See Clients.

#Per person and per client

• A colleague can have a monthly budget under Team. Their chats stop there until the next month or until you raise it. See Team.
• A client works on your credit within a monthly budget, or from a wallet of their own that they top up themselves. See Clients.

#Invoices and VAT

The Invoices tab under Billing has a receipt for every top-up and a statement for every month, as PDF.

VAT follows your billing country:

Keep your details complete under Company: trade name, legal name, chamber of commerce, VAT number and billing address. They print on every invoice. A VAT number is needed for the reverse charge.

Tip: a question about a charge goes to the Rekhu team under Messages, about Billing or an invoice.
