Cost and request rules

Usage-based billing; Default request estimate: $0.015 USD (not a fixed price). Declared unit rate: $0.000001 USD per provider_credit. Account-specific pricing and final settlement may differ. Published reference values are not an account-specific quote or a settled charge. For endpoints supporting X-AISA-Cost-Mode: quote, obtain a free quote for your exact request before execution; reconcile the settled cost with response metadata and Usage Logs. USD amounts use 1,000,000 integer micro-USD per dollar.

Default request reference estimate (USD): 0.015
