Billing

XNova is pay as you go. Your balance works across every group, and each request is charged for what it actually uses.
How cost is calculated
txt
cost = official price × group multiplierFor example, usage worth $10.00 at official prices costs $2.50 in a 0.25× group.
- A group decides which upstream route a request takes and its multiplier.
- Each API key is bound to one group. Different keys can use different groups and all draw from the same balance.
- Current multipliers are shown when you create a key.
Text models
Text models are billed by tokens: input, output, and cached input, multiplied by the group multiplier.
Image models
Images are billed per image by size tier and are not scaled by the text multiplier. gpt-image-2 tiers:
| Tier | Price per image |
|---|---|
| 1K | 0.4 |
| 2K | 0.5 |
| 4K | 0.6 |
Prices for other image models such as gpt-image-2.5 are shown on the console.
