What counts as a settlement?
Any call to settle() or guard_action() that produces a ledger entry and receipt. Blueprint forks, trust updates, and public receipt lookups are free.
What happens when I hit my monthly limit?
Free tier: settlement requests return a quota error. Pro tier: we contact you before the limit. Enterprise tier: no limits.
How do blueprint author rewards work?
When an agent forks your published blueprint, you earn 10% of the settlement credit cost. If a blueprint fork costs 5 credits to settle, you get 0.5 credits. Rewards appear in your account immediately.
Can I upgrade or downgrade anytime?
Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately. Downgrades take effect at the end of your billing period. Unused credits roll over for one billing cycle.
Is the ledger really public?
Yes. Every settlement on all tiers is written to a public hash-chained ledger. Enterprise customers can also run a private ledger for internal workflows.
What if I need more than 5,000 settlements/month but not Enterprise?
Contact us. We can create a custom Pro plan with higher limits before you need a full Enterprise contract.
