Billing

Replicas uses a hybrid pricing model:
  • Interactive workspaces (Dashboard, Slack, Linear, GitHub, CLI) are covered by your per-seat subscription.
  • API and Automations workspaces are billed separately, metered at $0.0166 per active workspace minute.
You only pay for time a workspace is awake. Workspaces sleep after 1 hour of inactivity, and no charges accrue while sleeping.

The Hobby plan does not include access to the public API or Automations. Hobby workspaces are automatically terminated when the credit allotment is exhausted. Team and Enterprise customers also get a shared Slack channel with the Replicas team for direct support. See Automations for the full per-plan breakdown of automation limits. Current pricing is always published at replicas.dev/pricing.

How seats are counted

A seat is counted for each unique user (by email address) who creates a workspace from an interactive surface during a billing period. Interactive surfaces are:
  • The Replicas Dashboard
  • The Slack integration
  • The Linear integration
  • The GitHub integration
  • The Replicas CLI (the CLI authenticates as you, so it counts toward your seat)
Seat counts are reconciled at the end of each billing period and the total is charged on your next invoice.

How API and Automations usage is metered

Workspaces created through the public API or via Automations are charged at $0.0166 per active minute, separately from your seat subscription.
  • Charges are per minute, rounded up to the nearest minute.
  • No charges while a workspace is sleeping. Workspaces auto-sleep after inactivity.
  • Metered usage is added to your invoice at the end of each billing period.

Examples

  • A teammate opens the dashboard and creates a workspace to fix a bug → counts toward your seat total. No additional charge.
  • A teammate runs replicas create from their terminal → counts toward your seat total. The CLI uses interactive auth.
  • Your CI pipeline calls the public API to create a workspace and run for 25 minutes → 25 metered minutes at $0.0166/min ($0.42).
  • A scheduled Automation triggers a workspace nightly that runs for 90 minutes → 90 metered minutes at $0.0166/min ($1.49).

Sanctioned programmatic channels

Programmatic, scripted, and automated usage of Replicas is permitted only through the public REST API (with an organization API key) or the Automations feature. Driving interactive surfaces from scripts, headless browsers, or wrapped CLI invocations is prohibited under our Terms of Service.

Workspace lifecycle

  • Active: Workspaces consume time while running.
  • Sleeping: After 1 hour of inactivity, workspaces automatically enter sleep mode. No charges while sleeping.
  • Archive: Sleeping workspaces are archived after 7 days of inactivity.
Charges are per minute of active workspace time. Questions about billing? Email founders@replicas.dev.
