# Understanding Token Pricing
Platform tokens are the currency of AI interactions. Here's how they work.
## What Are Tokens?
Tokens are chunks of text that AI models process. On average, 1 token ≈ 4 characters in English. Both your input and the AI's response consume tokens.
## Pricing Tiers
| Plan | Monthly Fee | Included Tokens | Overage |
|------|-------------|-----------------|---------|
| Free | $0 | 0 (BYO keys) | N/A |
| Starter | $5 | 100K | $10 → 200K |
| Pro | $9 | 500K | $10 → 250K |
| Business | $19 | 2M | $10 → 350K |
## Auto-Recharge
When your tokens run out, a $10 auto-recharge kicks in instantly — no interruptions. Toggle this off in Settings if you prefer to wait for the next billing cycle.
