Savings plans and resource plans

Updated at:

An AI Guardrails savings plan is an upfront payment plan available on the China site and the international site. By committing to a specific amount and term, you receive a corresponding usage discount that applies to all pay-as-you-go moderation items in AI Guardrails. After the savings plan expires or the committed amount is used up, excess usage is automatically billed on a pay-as-you-go basis.

Scope

The savings plan can offset all pay-as-you-go moderation items in AI Guardrails and is available on both the China site and the international site. For the committed amount and usage discount on each site, see Savings plan pricing.

  • Upfront payment — You pay the committed amount upfront when you purchase the savings plan.

  • Usage discount — The usage discount varies by committed amount and term. For details, see the savings plan pricing table.

  • Cost offset — During the savings plan term, pay-as-you-go moderation charges in AI Guardrails are offset at the corresponding usage discount.
