Billing & Usage
Usage Dashboard
The usage section of your project dashboard gives you real-time visibility into your consumption.
Stream Units Meter
A progress bar showing your current usage against your plan limit (e.g., "42 of 50 Stream Units used"). The bar color changes at thresholds:
- Default up to 80% — Everything's normal
- Amber from 80–95% — Approaching your limit
- Red above 95% — Near or at your limit
If overages are enabled and you're over your limit, you'll see the projected overage cost: "Projected overage: 8 units × $0.40 = $3.20."
AI Messages Meter
Same format as Stream Units. If your project has BYOK configured, this meter is replaced with: "Unlimited — using your own API key."
Billing Period
The dashboard shows your current billing period dates and, for trial accounts, the days remaining.
