# Subscription rates

> Lilac personal subscriptions bundle monthly included model usage with live per-model discounts that stretch each dollar further than prepaid credits.

<Note>
  Personal subscriptions are for **individual, non-commercial use only**. They are not available for organization billing. Commercial workloads, shared access, or abuse may result in suspension.
</Note>

## Plans

| Plan  | Price         | Included monthly usage | Concurrency |
| ----- | ------------- | ---------------------- | ----------- |
| Basic | \$10 / month  | \$20 of model usage    | 2           |
| Pro   | \$30 / month  | \$75 of model usage    | 3           |
| Max   | \$100 / month | \$300 of model usage   | 4           |

Included usage is **dollar-denominated model usage** — it pays for the same per-token rates as credits, but it comes from your subscription balance instead of prepaid credits. It is tracked separately from credits and does not roll over.

## Live per-model discounts

While you're spending from included subscription usage, each model also has a **live discount** based on current supply. The discount applies to how much included usage a request consumes:

| Supply state | Discount | Usage multiplier |
| ------------ | -------- | ---------------- |
| Low          | 0% off   | 1.00×            |
| Medium       | 25% off  | 0.75×            |
| High         | 50% off  | 0.50×            |
| Surplus      | 75% off  | 0.25×            |

Discounts refresh approximately every 10 minutes and are locked in **when a request starts**. They are not guaranteed to stay the same between requests.

Stacked with included usage, Max can deliver up to **12× the model usage per subscription dollar** versus credits: \$100 buys \$300 of included usage (3×), and a model at a 75% subscription discount stretches that 4× further. Pro delivers up to **10×** at its 2.5× included-usage multiplier.

### Example

A Max subscriber pays \$100/month and receives \$300 of included model usage. If GLM is currently 75% off for subscriptions, a request that would normally use \$1.00 of model usage uses \$0.25 from the subscription balance.

## Where to check current discounts

* **Billing page** — the "Live subscription discounts" panel.
* **Model cards and model detail pages** — shown on personal accounts.
* **Playground** — the model picker when you're in Subscription mode.
* **Public status endpoint** — `GET /status` returns the top-level `current_subscription_supply_updated_at` plus per-model fields:
  * Top-level:
    * `current_subscription_supply_updated_at`
  * Per model:
    * `current_subscription_supply_state`
    * `current_subscription_discount_percent`
    * `current_subscription_credit_multiplier`

## Usage controls

Included usage is constrained by the monthly billing period plus two reset windows. The 5-hour and 7-day windows start when your first subscription-funded request is admitted after no active window exists, then reset at the shown reset time. All windows are visible in the billing page usage panel.

| Window  | Cap                                                                          |
| ------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Monthly | 100% of plan's included usage (resets when the Stripe billing period renews) |
| 7 days  | 50% of plan's included usage                                                 |
| 5 hours | 25% of plan's included usage                                                 |

If a subscription window is exhausted, subscription-funded requests are blocked until that window resets. API keys with credit fallback enabled can continue on prepaid credits.

## Using subscriptions from the API

Personal API keys can be set to one of two billing modes:

* **Credits** — requests draw from prepaid credits.
* **Subscription** — requests draw from your subscription's included usage at the current live discount.

Subscription keys can optionally **fall back to prepaid credits** when subscription usage is unavailable. Fallback covers:

* Monthly included usage exhausted
* 5-hour or 7-day usage window exhausted

The Playground does **not** fall back automatically. Switch between **Credits** and **Subscription** mode manually in the playground UI.

## Managing your plan

* **Upgrades** are requested in Lilac and confirmed through Stripe. The new plan takes effect once Stripe confirms, and the price difference is **pro-rated** for the remainder of the current billing period. Included usage is recalculated at the new plan's included-usage multiplier (Basic 2×, Pro 2.5×, Max 3×) on what you've paid, minus what you've already used. For example: on Basic you pay \$10 and get \$20 of included usage. Upgrade to Pro halfway through the month for an extra \$20 and your included usage becomes 2.5 × \$30 = \$75, minus anything already spent.
* **Downgrades** generally take effect at the next billing period.
* **Payment methods, invoices, and cancellation** are handled through the Stripe customer portal linked from the billing page.

Subscriptions require Stripe-supported recurring payment methods. Crypto and other one-time-only payment methods may be available for prepaid credits, but not for recurring subscriptions.

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Are discounts guaranteed?">
    No. Discounts depend on current supply for each model and can change at any time. The discount that applies to a request is the one in effect when the request starts.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What happens when I run out of subscription usage?">
    Requests stop drawing from subscription usage. If your API key has fallback to credits enabled, requests continue against your prepaid credit balance. Otherwise they are rate-limited until the relevant window resets.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do discounts affect prepaid credits?">
    No. Subscription discounts apply only to subscription-funded requests. Requests paid with credits always bill at standard per-token rates.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Where can I check current discounts?">
    The console model pages, the billing page's "Live subscription discounts" panel, the playground model picker in Subscription mode, or the public `GET /status` endpoint.
