Connect ModelCompare to your agent and it pays from the same balance, at the same prices. A text comparison an agent runs stops at 25¢ unless it asks for more, and image, voice and video runs have their own limits, so nothing runs away.

Questions

The fine print, in plain words

How much does a comparison cost?

It's the sum of each model's price for that run. A typical text answer costs between 0.014¢ and 1.8¢ depending on the model, and an image between 0.7¢ and 28¢. Each result shows its exact cost.

Is there a subscription?

No. You buy credits when you want them and spend them run by run. There's no plan and nothing renews.

Do credits expire?

No. Credits you buy or get for free stay on your account until you use them.

What happens when I run out?

Nothing gets charged. Before the next run we ask you to top up, from 50¢.

Why do I have to sign in to try it?

So bots can't spend the free credits. It's one click with Google, and it adds 10¢ to your account.

Can my agent spend more than I expect?

A text comparison an agent runs stops at 25¢ by default, and image, voice and video runs have their own limits. The agent has to ask for a higher limit for bigger runs.

How do I pay?

By card through Stripe's secure checkout. We never see your card details.
