Scope
Defines plan tiers, metering units, surcharges, credits, billing cycle, billing thresholds, plan-change proration, pricing model, and product surfaces for billing and usage.Metering and Reporting
| Metric | Unit | Granularity |
|---|---|---|
| Compute hours | Time | Minutes |
| Machine surcharges (Large/XL) | Time | Minutes |
| Job Runs | Count | Integer units |
| AI credit | Currency | $0.001 increments |
Billing Cycle
- Billing anchor: 1st of every month.
- At anchor: Charges for extra usage from the prior period and the subscription fee for the next period.
- Signup proration: Plan fee is prorated when signup occurs mid-month.
- Period scope: Included allowances and limits apply per billing period unless stated otherwise.
Billing thresholds
- Purpose: On paid plans, Intuned can charge usage mid-cycle when accrued metered usage reaches an internal billing threshold for a billed resource.
- Scope: Billing thresholds are separate from usage alerts and hard limits. They are internal billing controls, not customer-configured limits.
- Invoice timing: When a billing threshold is reached, Stripe can generate and charge a mid-cycle invoice before the monthly billing anchor.
- Credit-forward behavior: Any amount successfully paid on a mid-cycle threshold invoice is credited toward the next monthly invoice for that same billing period.
- Failed payment: If a threshold invoice cannot be collected, the account can move to Unpaid and service can remain paused until billing is resolved.
- Notification: Workspace owners receive an invoice email for successful mid-cycle threshold charges.
Credits
- Free-trial credit: One-time $5 credit issued when starting on a free trial. Rolls over until consumed. Applies only to AI credit usage.
- Plan AI credits (paid plans): Monthly AI credit included per plan. Applies only to AI credit usage. Rollover: Does not roll over.

- “Not available” indicates feature access is not granted on that plan.
- Surcharges are metered separately from compute hours and reported in minutes.
Surcharges
- Large machine: Plan-specific hourly adder; reported in minutes.
- X-Large machine: Plan-specific hourly adder; reported in minutes.
- Accrual: Surcharges accrue only when plan grants access to the corresponding machine sizes.
Mid-Cycle Plan Changes
- Downgrade: Effective at the end of the current billing period. No immediate fee changes within the period.
-
Upgrade: Effective immediately. Charges and credits within the current period:
- Prorated charge for the target (higher) plan for the remainder of the period.
- Prorated refund/credit for the unused portion of the current (lower) plan.
- Billing anchor: Remains on the 1st of the month.
Pricing Model
- Taxes / regional pricing / currency support: Unified US-based pricing.
Product Surfaces

Constraints and Invariants
- Metered values are reported using the units and granularities specified in Metering and Reporting.
- Overages for compute hours and job runs apply only after included amounts are exceeded for the billing period.
- Mid-cycle threshold invoices, when paid, reduce the remaining amount billed at the monthly anchor for the same billing period.
- Access restrictions (Large/XL machines, per-project machine caps) are enforced by plan.
- Data retention limits are enforced by plan.
