Pricing

Prepaid credit, drawn down by what actually runs. No seats, no per-application fee, no minimum — an organization with nothing deployed is charged nothing.

These rates are placeholders. Metering is live, top-ups work, and your balance is drawn down each hour for what actually ran. The figures below show the shape of the pricing, not its final numbers — and the final numbers will not be applied retroactively to anything you run in the meantime.

Isolated capacity, a private registry namespace, and somewhere to send a support email that a person reads.

What gets counted

A container-second is one container running for one second. Three replicas for an hour is three container-hours, not one — the meter counts what ran, not the span during which something ran.

Containers the platform writes into your stack are not metered. Binding a managed database puts a small proxy alongside your own services — it is how the platform reaches the database rather than something you chose — so it never reaches the meter; neither does the engine behind it, whose cost is in the database rate rather than on your compute line. Binding one database to two applications therefore costs the same as binding it to one.

Resource Counted as Indicative rate
Running containers container-second $0.000004
Image builds build-minute included
Egress bandwidth GB not metered yet
Registry storage GB-month not metered yet

At the indicative rate, one container that never stops is about $0.014 an hour — roughly $10 a month. A container the platform started but never saw stop is reported separately rather than guessed at, and is not billed.

Try it before any of this applies

New accounts start with credit, so you can deploy something and watch it run before spending anything of your own. Install the CLI, get an account approved, and try it — the final rates land later, with notice.
