Pricing
What Hanzo Platform costs, and what it does not charge for.
Hanzo Platform is free and self-hostable. It is the deploy plane: point it at a repo and it builds, deploys, routes, backs up and monitors the result. Running the control plane itself costs nothing.
Three things carry a price, and every one of them is served live:
| What | Who bills it | Where the price lives |
|---|---|---|
| Your subscription | Hanzo | GET https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/billing/plans |
| Metered AI usage above the included allowance | Hanzo | GET https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/pricing/models |
| Hanzo-hosted instances and volumes | Hanzo | GET https://pricing.hanzo.ai/v1/cloud, /v1/gpu |
Visor can also launch instances on cloud accounts you connect with your own API credentials — AWS, DigitalOcean or Hetzner. On that path the provider bills you directly at its published rate and Hanzo is not in the transaction.

Sections
A number written into a page is a snapshot; the endpoint is the contract. If a page and the API disagree, the API is right and the page is stale — open an issue.
