API Pricing and Deductions
The Resultity platform uses a transparent, credit-based billing system to ensure fair access to inference workloads and to prevent abuse.
Request Cost Parameters
Each API request is priced based on multiple factors:
- Model type — different models have varying computational requirements;
- Payload size — longer prompts or outputs increase the cost;
- Task type — synchronous, streamed, or distributed;
- Network load — under high load, priority pricing may apply.
Credit Deduction Timing
Credits are deducted at job start, not after execution.
This guarantees:
- Reservation of payment for node operators;
- Consistent pricing visibility for the client;
- Predictable accounting in high-throughput environments.
Supported Billing Schemes
The system supports:
- Pay-per-request — credits are deducted per job;
- Subscription tiers — optional credit auto-top-up plans;
- RCP-based discounts — contributors may receive reduced pricing as a reward.
Economic Principles
- Prevent overuse by unverified accounts;
- Encourage regular usage via credit batching;
- Offer predictable cost models for business users;
- Align infrastructure incentives with demand.
By maintaining a simple and auditable billing flow, Resultity ensures both usability for inference consumers and sustainability for node operators.
