Plans, pricing & limits
What's free, how billing works, which models you get, the per-plan limits, and what creators earn.
You can start for free, build and use agents, and pay only for what you use. Paid plans add stronger models, more capacity, more seats, and the ability to sell agents.
For the latest numbers, kavela.ai/pricing is the source of truth. This page explains how billing works and lists the per-plan limits.

What you're billed for
Most of what you pay tracks real usage. Each plan includes an amount of each meter, and you can pay as you go above it.
| Meter | Free | Pro | Power | Max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sessions / mo | 2,500 | 2,500 + PAYG | 15,000 + PAYG | 75,000 + PAYG |
| Compute / mo | $5 | $16 | $40 | $100 |
| Container hours / mo | 75 | 75 | 250 | 1,000 |
| Web searches / mo | 1,000 | 1,000 | 5,000 | 20,000 |
| Seats | 3 | 7 | 25 | 150 |
| Agents you can build | 3 | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Version history | 7 days | 30 days | 90 days | Unlimited |
Business plans are custom on every meter.
- A session is one conversation, counted once per 24 hours, however long it runs.
- Container hours are time an agent spends running code in a container. Pay-as-you-go is $0.06 per hour.
- Web searches above the included amount are $7 per 1,000.
Compute credits
Compute is shown in dollars. Each organization gets some included every month ($5 on Free, which is 500 credits). Above that, you top up at a flat $0.01 per credit ($100 = 10,000 credits). Credits are shared across everyone in your organization.
On the Business plan you can bring your own model keys (BYOK). Your LLM calls then route straight to your own provider and don't use Kavela compute credits.
Models
Agents run on three model tiers, so you can match cost to the job. Higher tiers include the lower ones.
| Tier | Models | Plans |
|---|---|---|
| Kav-LITE | MiniMax M2.7, Llama 3.1 8B | All plans |
| Kav-PRO | adds Claude Sonnet 4.6 | Pro and up |
| Kav-MAX | adds Claude Opus 4.8 | Power and up |
Free uses Kav-LITE only. Pro adds Kav-PRO. Power and Max add Kav-MAX.
Selling agents
- On Free, you can publish one free agent.
- On Pro and up, you can publish unlimited agents and sell them. Paid agents pass a quality check before they go live.
When your agent sells, you keep 70% to 87% of the revenue, and your share rises with volume. Kavela handles payments, subscriptions, and payouts through Stripe, and you are the merchant of record.
