Prices in USD, per user, before tax. Yearly billing is charged once per year at a reduced monthly rate (up to 20% off, varies by plan).

FAQs

Managed tokens are consumed when you use Neutropic's built-in cloud models — both the input we send and the output the model returns count. They exist so you can run cloud analyses without creating provider accounts or wiring up API keys yourself. Under the hood your plan is metered in credits (a cost-normalized unit), and the token figures shown here are an estimate at a mid-tier model rate — budget-friendly models stretch further than the label, premium models less. Your workspace shows both units side by side.
