Pricing
Free while the beta lasts.
Every account starts with 50.000 TND of credit. Nothing is charged against it yet, because no rates have been set.
The beta
What free means here.
Free means no card, no invoice and no rate card. It does not mean unmetered: every request is counted as it happens, and you can read your own usage in the dashboard.
No payment method
A Google account is the whole sign-up. Sign in, create a key, and the first request works. Your balance and every request against it are in the dashboard.
Metered from the first request
The models are counted now so that there is a real record to price later, and so you can see what a workload costs in units before it costs anything in dinars.
Prepaid, not billed
Credit is money already on the account. There is no monthly invoice to arrive, and nothing to owe when the balance runs out.
Nothing is charged in arrears
Every usage row records which rate card was in force when the request happened. Today that is none, and it stays none for those rows forever. A price set later applies to what comes after it.
The meter
What each model counts.
The three models are metered in three different quantities, because they do three different things. These are the units a rate would be written against, and they are what the database records today.
| Model | Counted in |
|---|---|
| Hannibal | input tokensEverything you send: the messages, the system prompt, and any image or video in them. |
| output tokensEverything the model writes back. Counted apart from input, as every chat API does, because generating a token costs more than reading one. | |
| Fennec | seconds of audioThe length of the clip you send, measured per second with nothing rounded up. A three-second voice note is three seconds. |
| Dido | characters of textThe length of the text you send, before it is spoken. You know it before you make the call, which is the point of counting it that way. |
There are no rates yet.
The rates have not been decided, so there is nothing to put on the page. This is not a range with the numbers taken out, and it is not a price hidden behind a contact form. When the rates are set they appear here, in dinars, before they apply to anything, and everyone with an account gets an email first.
More than the grant
Two ways to ask.
Credits
For content creators and startups building something real on Derja. Tell us what it is and what you need, and a person reads it.
Enterprise
For a bank, a telco or a ministry. Dedicated capacity, terms in writing, and an invoice in dinars. No self-serve prices, because none of it is the same for two buyers.
Straight answers
What you're about to ask.
What does the beta cost?
Nothing. There is no card to add and no invoice at the end of the month.
Then what is the credit for?
It is the balance your requests will be spent against once there are rates. It is on the account from the moment you sign in, so you can see it and read the lines under it before any of it moves.
Will I be charged for what I use during the beta?
No. A usage row records the rate card that was in force when the request happened, and for these rows that is none. Pricing them later would mean rewriting history, which the schema does not allow and we are not going to do.
Why are there no prices on this page?
Because they have not been set. Publishing a number before it is decided means changing it later, and a price that moves after people have built against it is worse than a page that says it does not know yet.
Which currency?
Tunisian dinars. Credit is held in millimes, whole numbers, so a balance is exact rather than rounded. Our buyers are here, their money is here, and a dinar price needs no card that works abroad.
What happens when the credit runs out?
During the beta, nothing takes it down, so it does not run out. Once there are rates, credit is prepaid: requests stop when the balance does, and there is no bill afterwards.
Can I see what I have used?
Yes. The dashboard shows every request by day, model and endpoint, with the unit each one was counted in. It also marks the figures that were derived rather than measured, which matters if you are budgeting off them.
