# 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.
