This documents documents the usage based billing plan of the hosted phospho platform.

What is usage-based billing?

Every analytics run on phospho consumes a certain amount of credits.

At the end of the month, the total credits consumed by all the analytics runs are calculated and the user is billed based on the total credits consumed.

The cost per credit depends on the plan you are on.

  • Disable unnecessary analytics in Project settings
