Billing & limits

Kynasmith bills based on accepted frames — the pose frames that are successfully processed during your detection sessions. This page explains how billing works and how to manage your usage.

How billing works

  1. Your organization is on a plan that includes a monthly quota of accepted frames.
  2. Each detection session submits pose frames to Kynasmith.
  3. Frames that are accepted and processed count toward your monthly usage.
  4. When your usage approaches or exceeds your quota, the API returns billing-related errors.
See Accepted frames for details on what counts as an accepted frame.

Checking your usage

You can check your current usage in the portal at app.kynasmith.dev under Settings > Usage, or through the API:
  • GET /api/usage — Organization-level usage summary
  • GET /api/usage/projects/{project_id} — Project-level usage breakdown

Quota and plan limits

ConceptDescription
Monthly quotaThe total number of accepted frames included in your plan per billing cycle.
Billing cycleTypically calendar monthly, starting from your organization’s creation date.
OverageFrames accepted beyond your quota may be billed at the overage rate defined by your plan.
Grace periodA short grace period (typically 3 days) after quota exhaustion before hard enforcement begins.

Billing error codes

When a billing limit blocks an operation, the API returns one of these error codes:
CodeMeaningWhat to do
quota_exceededMonthly accepted-frames quota exhausted.Upgrade your plan or wait for the next billing cycle.
organization_suspendedOrganization suspended (e.g., extended non-payment).Resolve the issue in the portal or contact support.
delinquent_paymentPayment is overdue.Update your payment method in the portal.
plan_requires_upgradeFeature not available on your current plan.Upgrade your plan.
billing_not_configuredNo billing method configured for the organization.Set up billing in the portal.
See Error codes for the full error response format.

Rate limits vs. billing limits

Rate limits and billing limits are enforced separately:
  • Rate limits (HTTP 429) protect service stability. They are per-minute request caps that apply equally to all customers. Retry after the indicated duration.
  • Billing limits (HTTP 403) enforce your plan’s usage quota. They require a plan upgrade or waiting for the quota reset — not just retrying.
See Rate limits for details on request-rate enforcement.

Managing costs

  • Monitor usage regularly through the portal or usage API to avoid surprises.
  • Use replay mode for testing with short sample videos to minimize frame consumption during development.
  • Scope browser tokens narrowly with sessions:write to prevent accidental MoveSpec modifications.
  • Finalize or cancel sessions promptly to avoid frames being counted from idle sessions.
