# How Pricing Works
{% hint style="success" %}
**Launch bonus through at least July 1, 2026.** Every paid plan gets extra usage during launch. **From June 10**, Starter, Pro, and Max also get unmetered Nano Banana Pro and Nano Banana 2 (Starter: off-peak on weekdays and unlimited on weekends; Pro and Max: 24/7). See the [Launch Bonus](/plans-and-billing/launch-bonus.md) page for rate limits and full details.
{% endhint %}
**Starter and above** include a monthly usage budget (denominated in dollars) for **text, image, video, audio, and other models** in the app. One usage bar. No per-generation math in the flow. Usage resets each month — it doesn't carry over.
The **Free** plan is for trying the canvas: **text and image models** only (no video models in the app), **limited complimentary generations** for exploration — not a monthly dollar allowance — plus **no FLORA API or MCP** (those start on **Starter**). See [flora.ai/pricing](https://flora.ai/pricing) for the current free-generation cap and footnotes.

{% endhint %}
Annual plans save 20% on **Starter, Pro, and Max**. Those plans share the same published per-generation rates for every model your plan can access in the app, and **Starter and above** include **API & MCP**. **Free** stays on **text and image** in the product, **explore-only generation limits**, and **no API or MCP**. FAUNA is free on every plan, always — it doesn't count against your budget.
## How Usage Works
**On paid plans,** your monthly budget is denominated in dollars. When you run a generation, the model's cost is deducted from your budget. You see a simple percentage bar in the header — by default, no dollar amounts in the generation flow, no per-generation math. If you'd rather see exact costs, toggle **Preferences → Show generation costs in dollars** to replace the flower meter with the per-run dollar amount on every model and Run button. See [Model Pricing](/plans-and-billing/model-pricing.md#show-exact-dollar-amounts).
**What counts as usage.** Any generation from an AI model — images, video, audio, text — based on the model's published cost. FAUNA messages and interactions don't count against your budget on any plan.
**Where to see your usage.** A live percentage bar lives in the app header. Open **Settings → People & Seats** and scroll to **Usage this period** to see included usage for the current billing cycle, how much is left, when your budget **resets**, and any overage for the period.
People & Seats → Usage this period
**Usage History** (under **Plan & Usage**) shows exact dollar cost per generation, per project, and per member — useful for client billing or team budgets.
**Model costs.** A public model pricing page lists the rate for every model we support, so you can compare if you want to plan around a specific workflow.
## Teams
Every paid plan includes team collaboration, and each seat adds both cost and budget based on your plan's per-seat rates.
**Example (Pro plan):**
* Pro costs **$50 per seat/month**
* Pro includes **$50 usage per seat/month**
* So a 4-person Pro workspace = **4 x $50 = $200/month** and **4 x $50 = $200/month shared budget**
During the [launch bonus](/plans-and-billing/launch-bonus.md) (through at least July 1, 2026), that 4-person Pro workspace's shared budget doubles to **$400/month**.
Admins have control over how usage flows inside a workspace:
* **Pooled or per-user.** By default, everyone draws from the same shared pool. Admins can switch to per-user budgets at any time.
* **Per-member caps.** Set a dollar cap on any individual member to prevent one person from draining the pool. When a personal limit is set, that member's usage indicator in the app header shows their individual usage percentage (or "Limit reached" when the cap is hit) with a tooltip explaining the admin-set limit.
Self-serve plans go up to 8 seats. Beyond that, [Enterprise](#enterprise) gives you a custom seat count plus admin, security, and advanced features.
## Extra Usage (On-Demand Spending)
When your monthly budget runs out, you have two options: upgrade your plan, or turn on on-demand spending (called **Overage** in workspace settings).
On-demand is:
* **Opt-in.** Disabled by default. Workspace admins enable it in **Settings → People & Seats**.
* **Capped.** You set a **max overage** limit for the billing period so there are no runaway charges.
* **Card-required (self-serve).** A payment method must be on file. Enterprise accounts on invoice billing follow your contract instead.
* **Same price as included usage.** No markup — you pay the published model rates.
### Your max overage cap
The max overage setting is the most extra usage you allow **in the current billing period** — not just what is unpaid at the moment.
* Flora tracks **total overage this period** (everything above your included budget and wallet balance, whether or not it has been invoiced yet).
* When total overage would exceed your cap, **new generations stop** until the next billing period.
* When total overage **reaches** your cap, any remaining balance is **billed** and overage stops for the rest of the period.
If your cap is **lower** than your workspace's monthly subscription total, the cap controls both spending and billing. If your cap is **higher**, you can still be charged earlier when other thresholds are met (see below).
Paying an overage charge does **not** reset your cap for the period — only your subscription renewal starts a fresh overage tally.
### When self-serve workspaces are charged
For Starter, Pro, and Max workspaces paying by card, overage is **not** held until the end of the billing cycle. Charges happen when enough unpaid overage has built up:
1. **Max overage reached** — total overage this period hits the limit you set.
2. **Large unpaid balance** — unpaid overage reaches **$200** (a system safety threshold).
3. **Subscription-sized chunk** — unpaid overage reaches your workspace's **monthly subscription total** (plan price × editor seats; for annual billing, Flora uses the monthly equivalent). Example: one editor on Starter ($18/mo) is charged when about **$18** of overage is unpaid; four editors on Pro ($50 × 4 = $200/mo) is charged when about **$200** of overage is unpaid.
4. **Daily balance check** — if unpaid overage is still **more than $5** but has not hit the thresholds above, Flora attempts to collect it once per day (around 8:15 AM UTC).
You may see **multiple charges in one period** as you keep generating — especially when your max overage is higher than your subscription total. Each charge covers what was unpaid at that moment; your period total keeps counting toward your cap.
Charges appear on your card through Stripe. Open **People & Seats → Manage & Invoices** to view invoices and payment history.
If a subscription payment fails, **new overage charges pause** until billing is healthy again. Existing prepaid or wallet balance is not removed.
### Enterprise overage billing
Enterprise overage follows your contract. Most enterprise workspaces receive **invoices** (not automatic card charges) on a **monthly or quarterly** schedule tied to the contract start date, with payment terms set in your agreement (commonly net 60). The **People & Seats** overage settings show the next scheduled invoice date when invoice billing applies.
Some enterprise setups use the same threshold rules as self-serve, but still bill via invoice rather than an immediate card charge. Your account team can confirm which model applies to your workspace.
## Enterprise
For organizations that need a custom seat count, SSO, admin controls, audit logs, invoice billing, and the rest. Negotiated annually. [Contact us](https://flora.ai/contact) to start a conversation.
