Free or Pro. No tiers in between.

Free gets you BYOK (use your own provider keys, no charge) plus access to whichever models happen to be free in the catalog at the time. Pro unlocks every model, doubles down on rate limits and file size, adds live operator support, and activates automatically on your first wallet funding. No monthly fee, ever.

How Pro works: there is no subscription. Sign up free — you get BYOK plus access to whichever models are currently no-cost. The first time you fund your wallet — minimum $5 — your account flips to Pro permanently and every model in the catalog unlocks. After that, you stay Pro forever. The wallet pays only for the actual model calls you make at standard rates. No recurring charge, no auto-renewal, no expiring badge.

// What Costs What

Same rates the providers charge us

Platform-hosted chat costs match upstream provider rates with no markup. We pass through what OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and other providers charge us. Prices update when theirs do — the model picker shows live current rates.

// Funding the Wallet

Stripe processes the payment.

Add credit via Stripe Checkout from Settings → Billing. Funds appear in your wallet within seconds. Card processing fees pass through to you — Stripe charges 2.9% + $0.30 per US-card transaction (international cards may be slightly higher), and that fee is added on top of the amount you choose to fund. Your wallet is credited the full amount you picked.

You credit your walletApprox. Stripe feeTotal card charge
$5.00~$0.46~$5.46
$10.00~$0.61~$10.61
$25.00~$1.06~$26.06
$50.00~$1.81~$51.81
$100.00~$3.30~$103.30
$500.00~$15.25~$515.25

Minimum funding $5. Maximum per top-up $500. Wallet balance never expires and is refundable for unspent amounts within ~7 days of funding. See refund policy →

// What's Always Free

You never pay for these

Regardless of whether you've funded a wallet, these are always available at no cost.

// Common Questions

The questions you should be asking

Is there a monthly fee?

No. Pro is a one-time activation triggered by your first wallet funding. After that, you're Pro forever — no recurring charge, no auto-renewal.

Volume discounts?

None today; pricing is flat per-token regardless of volume. At $1,000+/month we're happy to talk enterprise terms — reach out via live support.

Auto-refill when balance is low?

Not yet. The wallet doesn't auto-refill — you fund manually via Settings → Billing. A "balance below $X → auto-charge $Y" toggle is on the roadmap.

What happens when I run out?

Platform-hosted requests return a clear "wallet empty, please fund" error. BYOK requests continue to work because they don't touch the wallet. Nothing is interrupted permanently — fund whenever and you're back.

Can my balance go negative?

No. We hold a tiny amount during in-flight requests (held balance) and refund it immediately on completion. If a provider call ends up costing more than we held, Nyquest absorbs the difference rather than overdrawing your wallet.

Refunds?

Unspent funds are refundable on request, generally within 7 days of funding. See Refunds and Disputes for the full policy.

Receipts and invoices?

Every Stripe charge generates a Stripe receipt to your email. For formal invoices (business / tax purposes), open live support and we'll send a PDF.

Tax / VAT?

We don't currently collect VAT or sales tax for individual users in most jurisdictions. Stripe Checkout shows whatever applies in your region. Business customers needing tax-compliant invoices should contact support.

Pin a model vs let Nyquest route?

Pin if you want fixed, predictable pricing — every message in that conversation uses that model at its published rate. Auto-route lets the dispatcher pick based on tier and complexity; cost varies request-to-request, but the actual model and cost are always shown per-request in usage analytics.

Start free. Fund when you're ready.

No card required. BYOK and any currently-free models cost nothing. Fund the wallet only when you want Pro limits, every model, and live support.
