# Billing & plans

> Octoparse uses hybrid billing: a plan subscription covers what your account can use, and credits pay for usage-based items such as AI building and proxies.

Octoparse uses hybrid billing, with two parts:

| | What it is | What it covers |
| - | - | - |
| **Plan** | Your subscription | What your account can use, such as saved tasks, monthly rows, and whether your own tasks can run on Octoparse Cloud |
| **Credits** | A balance in dollars, used on any plan | Usage-based items, such as building tasks with AI Assistant, templates that charge per result, residential proxies, and CAPTCHA and Cloudflare verification |

## Plans

| Plan | Best for | Where your own tasks run | Rows from templates, AI Assistant, MCP, and API |
| - | - | - | - |
| **Free** | Trying Octoparse | Your computer | 2,000 a month, up to 100 per run |
| **Basic** | Individuals and side projects | Your computer, with local boost mode | 10,000 a month |
| **Standard** | Scraping that runs on its own | Your computer or Octoparse Cloud, on a schedule | No limit |
| **Professional** | Larger jobs | Same as Standard, with more cloud capacity | No limit |
| **Enterprise** | Teams | Same as Professional, with admin and [agent accounts](https://www.octoparse.com/docs/en/account.md#enterprise-admin-and-agent-accounts) | No limit |

Tasks you build yourself in Octoparse Desktop never count toward monthly rows. Cloud Agent scrapers run on Octoparse Cloud on every plan; on Free and Basic they're started by hand. See [AI Assistant credits and plans](https://www.octoparse.com/docs/en/ai-assistant/credits-and-plans.md).

Free accounts can try Standard or Professional for 14 days, once per account.

## Credits

| | What it is | When it expires |
| - | - | - |
| **Monthly credits** | Included with Basic and above. The amount depends on your plan | Resets on your billing date each month, on annual plans too. Used before purchased credits |
| **Purchased credits** | Credits you add with **Add Credits**, on any plan, Free included | Never |

Data Apps are paid from purchased credits only. When you run low on credits, Octoparse asks you to select **Add Credits**. On the Enterprise plan, agent accounts ask the admin account instead.

For current prices, everything each plan includes, and renewal terms, see the pricing page.
