Pricing and credits
Commercial terms in this page are an MVP preview, not a binding quote. Per-token prices and provider markups must be published only after upstream model pricing is verified.
Prepaid usage
Corion uses prepaid credits. A successful model request deducts its metered cost from the account balance. A virtual key receives a spending budget based on the balance available when the key is created.
The planned checkout presets are $20, $50, and $100 credit top-ups. Their appearance in a deployment depends on Stripe configuration. Buying a pack adds usage credit; it does not guarantee a request rate, context window, model uptime, or expiration policy.
Token pricing
Prepaid credits are spent at the model-specific rates below. A request is billed for its metered input and output tokens, and there is no minimum charge per request.
| Model | Input (per 1M tokens) | Cached input (per 1M tokens) | Output (per 1M tokens) |
|---|---|---|---|
kimi-k3 | $2.50 | $0.25 | $12.50 |
deepseek-v4-pro-0813 | $0.435 | $0.0435 | $0.87 |
deepseek-v4-flash-0731 | $0.11 | $0.011 | $0.25 |
Input tokens served from the provider's prompt cache are billed at the cached
rate, 10% of the standard input rate. Cached tokens are reported as
usage.prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens on every response and are excluded
from the count billed at the standard input rate. Whether a request hits the
cache is decided by the upstream provider; Corion does not guarantee a hit rate.
The dashboard's usage ledger is the source of truth for the MVP, subject to reconciliation with gateway spend records.
Before accepting live payments, Corion must publish:
- the rounding and minimum-charge rules,
- taxes, refunds, expiration, and failed-request treatment,
- the currency used for balances and settlement.
Design partners
Teams evaluating sustained or specialized workloads can use the design partner form. Capacity, support, credits, and case-study terms are agreed individually; none are implied by submitting the form.
Enterprise
Dedicated capacity, private networking, data residency, contractual SLAs, and self-hosted deployment are roadmap options. They are not included in the Phase 1 service unless confirmed in a signed agreement.
