| Free tier | USD 100 in free credits on a new account: USD 50 at signup and USD 50 the first time a payment method is added. Starter itself is a free plan. unit mixed; metered on wall-clock; credit |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | Starter caps a machine at 4 cores / 8 GB with 5 concurrent sessions; Team (USD 250/month, or USD 200 billed yearly) raises it to 16 cores / 64 GB and 100 sessions |
| Retention | A paused sandbox stops charging and keeps its files and memory; first 5 GiB of disk is free, storage beyond it is metered. |
| Egress | No egress price and no transfer allowance are published on the page read; metered is recorded as false because nothing is known to be charged per gigabyte, which is an absence of evidence, not a promise of free traffic. free_allowance: not stated |
| Identity | card USD 50 of the USD 100 credit is released only when a payment method is added; top-up minimum USD 20. Card type and hold are not stated. |
| Limits |
A sticky session has no duration cap, which is unusual: 'A sticky session runs until you terminate it.' |
| Binding | volume-quota The hourly rate is the wall: USD 0.0504 per vCPU-hour is 45x Krova's per-vCPU rate, so a month of 24/7 costs what a year of Krova costs. |
| Interface | unknown |
| Tooling | not stated |
| Composes with | not stated |
| Reliability | Usage is metered by the second with no minimums; when the balance runs out Tenki stops starting new jobs and sessions until a top-up or auto-reload. |
| Notes | Arithmetic: 0.000014 x 3600 = USD 0.0504/vCPU-hour and 0.0000045 x 3600 = USD 0.0162/GiB-hour; 1 vCPU + 1 GiB = USD 0.0666/hour, x 730 = USD 48.62. The dossier's existing tenki record carries m24h_usd 120.89 for a 2 vCPU / 4 GiB shape, which is the same rate at a bigger shape: (2 x 0.0504 + 4 x 0.0162) x 730 = USD 120.89, so the two agree. The danger is the opposite reading of the same numbers: sandboxprices-style modelling at 200 hours would put this at USD 13.32 and it would look like a candidate. |
