Training Cost Flow

Cloud training estimates cost before start and charges for actual GPU time used.

flowchart LR
    A[Start Training] --> B[Estimate Cost]
    B --> C[Run Training]
    C --> D[Charge Actual Usage]

How It Works

1. Estimate: Platform calculates estimated cost based on model size, dataset size, epochs, and GPU
2. Authorize Start: Your available balance is checked before training starts
3. Train: Job runs on the selected GPU
4. Charge: On completion (or cancellation), billing uses actual runtime

!!! success "Consumer Protection"

You pay for actual compute time used, including partial runs that are cancelled.

Training Costs

Cloud training costs depend on GPU selection:

{% include "macros/platform-gpu-table.md" %}

H200 and B200 GPUs require a Pro or Enterprise plan. All other GPUs are available on all plans.

See Cloud Training for complete GPU options and pricing.

Cost Calculation

Total Cost = GPU Rate x Training Time (hours)

Example: Training for 2.5 hours on RTX PRO 6000

$1.69 x 2.5 = $4.23

Upgrade to Pro

!!! note "Cancellation Timing"

Pro features remain active until the end of your current billing period. Monthly credits stop being granted at cancellation.

Downgrading to Free

When your Pro subscription ends (cancelled or expired), your account reverts to the Free plan. Here's what happens to your existing resources:

Resource	What Happens
Models	All models preserved. Cannot create new models beyond 100-model limit
Deployments	All deployments preserved. Cannot create new beyond 3-deployment limit
Storage	All data preserved. Cannot upload new data beyond 100 GB limit
Dataset Upload (ZIP/TAR incl. .tar.gz/.tgz/NDJSON)	Upload limit reduced from 20 GB to 10 GB per file
Credit Balance	Existing credits preserved and usable
Monthly Credits	$30/seat/month grants stop immediately
Team Members	Members notified and lose access to team resources
GPU Access	Standard GPUs remain available. Best GPUs (H200, B200) require Pro or Enterprise
Concurrent Trainings	Limit reduced from 10 to 3

!!! tip "No Data Loss"

Downgrading never deletes your models, datasets, or deployments. Limits are only enforced when creating **new** resources — existing resources remain fully accessible.

FAQ

What happens when I run out of credits?

• Running training: Continues to completion — your balance may go negative
• New training: Cannot start new jobs until balance is positive
• Deployments: Continue running regardless of balance

If a training run completes and the actual cost exceeds your remaining balance, your balance goes negative. Add credits to restore a positive balance before starting new training jobs. Enable auto top-up to avoid interruptions.

Are unused credits refundable?

• Purchased credits: No refunds
• Signup/monthly credits: No refunds (use it or lose it)

Can I transfer credits?

Credits are not transferable between accounts.

How do I get an invoice?

Transaction receipts are available in the transaction history. Click the receipt icon next to any purchase transaction.

What if training fails?

Failed training runs are not charged. If a job fails due to a configuration error, out-of-memory issue, or any other reason, no credits are deducted. Completed, user-cancelled, and auto-terminated stuck jobs may incur charges based on actual GPU time used. See Cloud Training Billing for a full breakdown by job status.

Is there a free trial?

The Free plan includes $5 signup credit ($25 with a company email) -- essentially a free trial. No credit card required to start.
