description: >-
  Blaxel uses credit-based, usage-metered pricing for its agent infrastructure.
  Compute (sandboxes, batch jobs, MCP hosting) is billed per GB of RAM per second
  of active CPU time; storage is billed per GB per month. New accounts start on a
  free Tier 0 with up to $200 in free credits and no credit card required, and
  accounts automatically move up through spend tiers (Tier 0-9) that raise
  concurrency limits as credits are added. A Custom plan is available for
  dedicated deployments and negotiated terms.
notes: >-
  Representative rates as published on the Blaxel pricing page; verify current
  per-resource rates, tier thresholds, and add-on fees on the pricing page during
  reconciliation.
