### <mark style="color:blue;">3. Usage Accounting</mark>

Decimal tracks usage in real-time across all workflows:

* Task Units: every execution step is counted as 1 task unit.
* Connectors: standard Web2 integrations are free within tier limits, while Premium nodes (e.g., mainnet Web3, AI inference, or specialized APIs) count as add-ons.
* Carry-Forward Credits: if you don’t consume premium nodes in a billing cycle, your credits roll over to the next month.

### <mark style="color:blue;">4. Examples</mark>

#### Example 1:

You run a small NFT alert workflow with:

* 500 API calls to OpenSea (Web3 node = premium)
* 2,000 Slack messages (Web2 connector = free within tier)

Usage:

* 2,500 tasks
* 1 premium node ($5)<br>

If on Flex Pay-As-You-Go → $0.10 × 25 = $2.50 + $5 = $7.50 total.

***

#### Example 2:

Your team automates 50,000 Discord community alerts + wallet balance trackers.

* Fits exactly within Pro Builder plan → $49 flat.

### <mark style="color:blue;">5. Upgrades & Downgrades</mark>

* Upgrade anytime: changes apply immediately.
* Downgrade or cancel anytime: unused credits carry over.
* No lock-in: you only pay for what you use.

### <mark style="color:blue;">6. Why This Matters</mark>

Decimal’s pricing model keeps you in control:

* **No sunk cost risk** – unused credits are never wasted.
* Aligned with your growth – start free, pay when you scale.
* Ecosystem positive – by choosing across multiple vendors in the drag-and-drop builder, you push the ecosystem to deliver better performance, lower costs, and higher reliability.
