# Plans and pricing (/docs/concepts/plans)



<Callout title="Launch">
  Every workspace is on **Free**, at no cost. Calls run on your own vendor keys and GridRouter
  never charges for them. Nothing can be bought yet: paid plans, credit top-ups and GridRouter's
  managed vendor accounts are coming soon.
</Callout>

## Always free [#always-free]

GridRouter never charges for:

* Calls made with your own vendor keys (BYOK). Your vendor bills you, and
  [billing verification](/docs/concepts/billing-verification) checks that it billed correctly.
* Failed calls, and misses on vendors that charge per hit.
* Private cache hits.
* Reads of your own data, logs and the catalog, and exports in any format.

## How paid plans will be metered [#how-paid-plans-will-be-metered]

GridRouter prices the platform, not the data. When paid plans open, a plan's limits are soft: going
past one never breaks a call, and the overage is billed per block (logged calls, cached records and
stored bodies, each measured as a monthly average). Calls on GridRouter's managed vendor accounts
will be charged at the vendor's price plus a published markup, from a prepaid balance.

Money in the API is always integer micro-USD: 1,000,000 is $1. `GET /v1/plans` and
`GET /v1/entitlements` return the plan definitions and your workspace's current limits.
