  The 2026-05-04 bulk-sweep version of this file, which was method: generated and described a
  Prisma Postgres + Accelerate plan shape that no longer exists. Prisma repriced around Prisma
  Compute + Prisma Postgres when Compute went GA on 2026-08-28.

  Usage-based pricing across both halves of the stack. Prisma Compute bills requests, memory
  GB-hours, active vCPU-hours and outbound bandwidth; Prisma Postgres bills one operation per
  query plus storage. Seats, deploys, preview branches and idle time are free, an idle app scales
  to zero, and every paid plan carries a hard spend limit that is ON BY DEFAULT.

included_on_every_plan:
  - Prisma ORM (always free)
  - Unlimited Prisma Postgres data transfer
  - Spend limits

  - CLI + Management API
agent_relevant_note: >-
  The pricing page states explicitly that "a request does the same work whether it comes from a
  person, a script, or an AI agent, so that work is all you're charged for" — there is no agent
  surcharge and no separate agent tier. Prisma Compute is positioned for deploying AI agents.
