Checked 2026-09-23

The vendor charges nothing at all, so your only running cost is the model provider tokens your agent consumes, which the shipped cost guard meters per run.

- Agno Yes
Billing is per team seat and per live AgentOS connection; the vendor meters no events, tokens or egress because you own the compute.

Billing is a monthly plan fee plus a consumable USD balance: plans grant a monthly amount and top-ups carry a sliding service fee, with credits charged per action.
Checked 2026-10-03

The tool itself costs nothing; what you pay is token consumption at whichever LLM provider your key belongs to, and the docs treat context size as a direct cost to you.
Checked 2026-09-30

Billing is per seat with metered credits layered on top: each plan includes a fixed number of users and a per-user annual allowance of email and phone credits, and enrichment burns 0.5 credits a call whether run in-app or over MCP.
Checked 2026-09-10
- Antigravity CLI Yes
Billing is subscription quota first, then metered AI credits at Agent Platform consumption rates, or pure consumption billing for organisations; nothing is priced per seat in the CLI itself.
Checked 2026-09-10

Checked 2026-09-19

Two meters, both published: a flat monthly price per connected lead source or phone number, plus voice billed per talk minute, so cost tracks channels activated and minutes spoken rather than seats.
Checked 2026-09-11

Billing is per connected minute, prorated to the second, with a separate transfer-minute rate rather than seats or tokens.
Checked 2026-09-11

Checked 2026-09-28
- Crescendo Qualified
Billing is per resolution — $1.25 for AI-handled, $2.25 for the AI-plus-human model — but the fixed monthly fee charged alongside it is never quantified, so only half the unit is public.
Checked 2026-09-12
- Cresta Qualified
Cresta names its pricing dimensions - products, agent count, conversation volume, channels and languages - but publishes no rate, no unit price and no overage figure, so cost is quoted per deployment.
Checked 2026-09-13

Metering is per workflow execution rather than per seat, and the free tier states its allowance, but Enterprise volumes are sized case by case with unpriced overage.
Checked 2026-09-13

Checked 2026-09-02

Checked 2026-09-24

The framework meters nothing. You pay the model provider whose key you supply, plus Google Cloud's Agent Runtime beyond its no-cost tier if you deploy there.
Checked 2026-09-02

Checked 2026-09-14

Billing is a monthly plan that carries a credit allowance, and every action draws on it at a rate set by task type, chosen model and complexity rather than by seat alone.
Checked 2026-09-17

Checked 2026-09-18
- Leaping AI Qualified
Two of the vendor's own posts price it per conversation minute plus a monthly platform fee, but the pricing page publishes no rate card and a third post calls the model 'per-seat', so the metering a buyer actually signs is not settled.

Plan fee plus consumption metering: observability events, CPU hours, egress, memory tokens, retrieval storage and database rows all have per-unit overage rates. Not per seat.
Checked 2026-09-02

- Zencoder Yes
Billing pairs a per-seat monthly fee with metered credits, where each model carries a published multiplier and extra credits are bought on demand at a $20 minimum.

- zot Qualified
The harness itself costs nothing and meters nothing; you pay your model provider per token or through an existing subscription, and zot only surfaces the running cost in its status line.

- ZTABS Yes
Billing is per project or per developer-hour, not per seat or token: staff augmentation is quoted hourly by seniority while builds are quoted as fixed project ranges after scoping.

The population
149 listings in this index are Published. This is the population as of 2026-10-11. 149 of the 149 published listings in this index carry a settled answer for “Cost per task”. That row asks: Does a run have a knowable price? Every listing in the index is settled on this row, so nothing is left out.
Findings
-
116 of the 149 settled listings answer “Yes” for “Cost per task”. That is 78% of the settled set.
-
27 of the 149 settled listings answer “Qualified” for “Cost per task”. That is 18% of the settled set.
-
3 of the 149 settled listings answer “No” for “Cost per task”. That is 2% of the settled set.
-
3 of the 149 settled listings answer “Not established” for “Cost per task”. That is 2% of the settled set.
1 of those yes answers is Webhound, which still answers yes for “Cost per task”. Its listing carries the stored answer and links to the source recorded for it. This is one worked example, not an independent audit of every source in the census.
What we counted, and how
Each figure above is a count over the “Cost per task” row of the listing datasheet, taken from the same stored answer the listing page renders. The denominator is the 149 listings whose answer is settled, meaning one of yes, qualified, no, does not apply, not established. On this row that is the whole index, because every listing has a recognised stored answer. Every number here is stored with the read-only query that reproduces it and re-run every sixty seconds against the live corpus, so a figure that stops reproducing surfaces as drift rather than as a stale sentence nobody notices. Our full method covers how a datasheet row is settled in the first place.
Limitations
This counts stored datasheet answers, not independently tested capabilities. A sourced answer can record a vendor statement or our reading of published evidence; this census does not re-fetch those sources. “Not established” means we have not established an answer. That can reflect vendor nondisclosure, blocked evidence, or unfinished research, not a no. An absent or unrecognised answer is excluded rather than treated as a researched finding. The figures are restated when the stored corpus changes; the date above is the count used for this published version, not a new verification of the vendors.
