Billing
The CoPaw deployment on Simple Application Server incurs the following fees:
-
Simple Application Server fees: Billing overview of Simple Application Server.
-
Model call fees: By default, CoPaw calls models from Model Studio. These calls are billed in two main ways:
-
Coding Plan (Recommended): A fixed monthly subscription with a monthly request quota. Calls exceeding the quota fail without charge, preventing unexpected costs.
The Coding Plan currently supports models such as
qwen3.5-plus,kimi-k2.5,MiniMax-M2.5, andglm-5. -
Pay-as-you-go by token usage: By default, the
qwen3.5-plusmodel is used for text and image processing.ImportantConfigure stop-on-exhaustion for your free quota: When you first activate Model Studio, you are automatically granted a free quota for various models. After the free quota is used up, billing switches to pay-as-you-go by default. We recommend that you enable the stop-on-exhaustion feature to avoid unexpected charges.
