| Additional costs | Model inference is included in the subscription rather than billed per token, so the usage multipliers between Pro, Max and Max+ are the real cost lever and are not expressed in published numeric limits. | Plan credits expire each month. Top-ups start at $20, are non-refundable and remain usable; organizations pool credits. BYOK avoids bundled-credit consumption but not the paid seat fee on paid plans. |
