How billing actually works
Two meters, no overlap.
Inference and intelligence are different costs — and they should be priced that way. Rylvo adds zero markup on the LLM tokens your bots consume; we only meter the AI we run on your behalf (Workspace Architect, Evolution, Prompt Optimization, Red Team generation, Edge Cases).
Meter 1 · Runtime
BYOK — you pay your LLM provider directly
Every bot chat call uses your own API key — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, xAI, or any compatible provider. Rylvo routes the call server-side and logs a full trace for observability, but adds zero markup on token costs. You pay your LLM provider directly.
- Unlimited bot messages on every plan, including Free
- Use your provider's volume discounts and credits
- Every turn traced end-to-end in your dashboard
- Zero lock-in — swap providers per bot anytime
Meter 2 · Intelligence
Architect Credits — a USD wallet for Rylvo-paid AI
When Rylvo itself calls an LLM on your behalf — Workspace Architect building bots, reviewer agents, Prompt Auto-Optimization, Edge Case Engine, Red Team — the cost is deducted in real USD from your wallet.
- Monthly grant included with your plan ($0.50 – $25+)
- Top up anytime with $5 / $25 / $50 / $100 / $250 packs
- Included resets monthly · top-up never expires
- Hard cap: we pause at $0, never charge surprise overage
