Pricing Overview

Usage-based AI API services on Ace Data Cloud are pay-as-you-go — no monthly subscription fee. The Credits conversion and per-call billing rules below apply to these API packages. Deployment services such as the Discord and Telegram account proxies require a period subscription before deployment. Check the available durations and current subscription prices in the console.

​

Billing currency

• The console displays prices in USD for reference
• Actual deductions happen in Credits
• The Credits ↔ USD ratio depends on which package you purchased

USD estimate: $$\text{USD} = \text{Credits} \times \frac{\text{package.price}}{\text{package.amount}}$$ The conversion rate depends on the current package price and Credit amount. Check the live package details in the console before purchasing.

When is billing applied?

Live prices

Pricing varies by service, model, and parameters (resolution, duration, token count). The console is the single source of truth.

​

Instance balance vs general balance

• Instance balance (Dedicated) — tied to an application created under a specific service; usable only for that service
• General balance — shared across all services
• Calls draw from the instance balance first. If the instance application has “Allow Use General Balance” enabled, it falls back to the general balance when the instance balance is exhausted.
• When fully consumed, the API returns 403 used_up (not 402) — see Response format.

Discounts

Staking $ACE tokens grants discount tiers. Refer to the console for the current rules and entry points.
