Pricing and limits
Nullspace credits
One Nullspace credit is $1.00 before tax. Usage burns credits through the active pricing table; quota limits come from the same export used to build this page.

How credits behave
Top-ups
Stripe Checkout sells the product Nullspace credits with description Credit purchase. The quantity is the amount of credits purchased.
Admission
Paid work requires the configured minimum balance before admission.
Monthly caps
Monthly spend caps block new work at the configured cap; running work is stopped only after the configured grace/overshoot threshold.
Preserved work
Balance or cap enforcement blocks new work and parks running compute when needed; disk and workspace state are preserved.
Month end
End-of-month output is a credit usage summary, not an invoice or payment request.
Free tier
Launch signup credit grants are not enabled in the current billing schema.
FAQ
Billing questions
What happens when a balance is depleted?
New paid work is blocked until the account is topped up. Already running compute is parked when the configured grace threshold is reached, while disk and workspace state remain preserved.
Do credits expire?
The launch pricing export does not publish an automatic expiry window. Ledger expiry rows are reserved for explicit account adjustments when a grant or contract defines an expiry.
Where are API billing errors documented?
See the billing docs for 402 reason codes and recovery paths: pricing and limits.
