Per-model rates — pay for the model you call

One rate for everyone, billed per token. Prepaid packs include 0–10% additional usage credit as pack size increases. Promotional credit is governed separately.

Model	Context	Input / 1M	Output / 1M
Bee Cell	128K	$0.30	$1.20
Bee Brood	256K	$0.60	$2.40
Bee Comb	256K	$1.25	$5.00
Bee Buzz	256K	$2.50	$10.00
Bee Hive	256K	$5.00	$20.00
Bee Swarm	1M	$10.00	$40.00

Per-token billing draws from your credit wallet. Bee Nectar is pay-as-you-go; Bee Honey adds a higher rate-limit ceiling, SLA, and a dedicated CSM at the same per-token rates.

Common questions

What's a pooled token?+

Input + output tokens both count 1:1 against your monthly allowance. Premium-routed output and overages are billed separately at per-million rates.

Why is the Individual & Teams pool smaller than the API per-million rate would imply?+

Individual & Teams and API price different things. The API bills per token at the current published rate of the model you call (Bee Cell $0.30/$1.20 through Bee Swarm $10.00/$40.00 per 1M), drawn from your credit wallet. Individual & Teams plans bundle model access, retrieval, account administration, support, and their published usage envelope into one flat monthly fee. Shared cross-member context, custom adapters, audit logs, and SSO are shown separately with their actual release state; a plan entitlement never implies general availability.

Do you offer volume discounts on the API?+

Subscription prices and published per-model rates are not discounted. Prepaid packs include 0–10% additional usage credit as pack size increases. Bonus credit offsets eligible metered usage only; it never reduces subscriptions, taxes, committed minimums, or third-party pass-through charges.

What's premium-routed output and when does it bill separately?+

The adaptive router keeps most requests on Cell or Comb (cheap, fast) and only escalates to Hive or Swarm when difficulty/quality scores demand it. The pooled-token allowance assumes this mixed routing. If you opt-into premium routing per request (tools, complex reasoning, Swarm-tier output), the output portion bills outside the pool at the catalog premium rate — listed under each plan in the workspace billing dashboard. There are no surprise charges; you have to opt-in per request.

How does annual billing work?+

Annual billing is available now alongside monthly. You're charged up-front at monthly price × 12 — same per-month cost, with the convenience of one invoice and one renewal date. There's no discount for paying annually; you pick the cadence that fits your finance workflow. Switch cadences any time and we credit unused months on plan changes.

Can I run Bee offline or self-hosted?+

Not today — every Bee tier currently runs on our cloud. Self-hosted and air-gapped deployment are on our roadmap for Enclave (enterprise, arranged per customer); reach out if you need it and we'll announce availability on the changelog.

What's your refund policy?+

Annual plans are refundable pro-rata within 30 days for any reason. Monthly plans cancel at period end. Enterprise contracts follow the executed MSA.
