Set the company's spending limits

On Settings › Spending, a System admin sets the company's monthly and daily limits. A company that has never saved limits already shows the default policy.

Spending is one page for the whole company. It is not a tab on Models.

Open Spending

  • In the company settings rail, choose Spending. The address is /settings/spending. The heading is Spending, and the line under it is How much the company may spend each month and each day, and what it has spent.
  • From Connections › Model providers › Limits, the section Spending limits says The company's spending limits have their own page. Follow Open Spending ›.

The default policy

Every company has a spending policy. A company that has never saved one is given the default policy the first time Spending is opened or the company spends. The page then shows that policy already filled in: the monthly limit, the daily limit, what has been spent, the caps inside the limit, and the alert percent. It is not a blank form, and the dollar amounts are the ones on the page for this company.

Monthly limit and daily limit

  • Monthly limit is The most the company can spend in a calendar month (UTC). Daily limit is The most the company can spend in one day (UTC).
  • Each amount says Up to the most this company may set, then Ask support to go higher.
  • The daily limit can't be more than the monthly limit. An amount that is not a number, such as anything other than 50 or 12.50, is refused with Enter an amount in dollars, like 50 or 12.50.
  • A System admin chooses Save limits. The page then says Limits saved. Only a System admin can change these two amounts. Saving without that access says Only a System admin can change spending limits.
  • If the limits changed while you were editing, they are read again and the page says The limits changed while you were editing. They've been read again.

What the page shows and does not edit

  • Spent so far says Includes work still running, counted at its most until its cost is known. This month and Today each show the amount spent of the limit.
  • When a limit is reached: New model calls, app syncs, media and voice are refused with a clear message. Work already running finishes.
  • What counts is Everything the company's agents and workflows pay for. See what counts toward spending lists model calls, including AI checks and Ask Falcon; app syncs and outside tool calls; media (images and video); voice (calls, previews and transcription); and stored files and synced data.
  • Caps inside the limit are shown, not edited here: Each agent, per day, Each agent, per month, Each person, Each run and Each conversation. The note is No single agent, person, run or conversation can use the whole limit. Change one person's cap in Trusted domains › opens Trusted domains.
  • Alerts uses the percent on the page: at that percent of a limit, Fleet health shows the company near its limit. Open Fleet health › goes there.
