FAQ
Is there a markup over official API pricing?
No markup. Prices above are provider list prices. Note that ConnectOnion's own built-in cost tracking (agent.total_cost) has exact rates only for the models registered in its pricing table — models outside that table fall back to a default estimate of $1.00/M input and $3.00/M output.
Do credits expire?
No. Credits never expire. Use them whenever you want.
How do I check my balance?
Run co status in your terminal, or visit the dashboard.
Can I switch between managed keys and my own keys?
Yes. Use the co/ prefix for managed keys, or remove it to use your own API keys. Same code, just change the model name.
