Only pay for the AI you use

Bapoojee's AI co-pilot drafts replies, reads intent, and suggests the next step on every conversation. That work costs something to run — and we think you should pay for exactly what you use, never a round number picked to be safe. So metering runs on a pre-authorize-then-settle model.

Pre-authorize

Before the co-pilot generates anything, we estimate the worst-case cost and place a hold for that amount. If your balance can't cover it, the request stops before any work begins — so you're never charged for a reply that couldn't start.

Settle

Once the reply is generated, we compute the real cost and settle against the hold, returning the unused remainder. Because the hold always over-estimates, settlement only ever refunds — it never charges more than you agreed to. If generation fails, the whole hold is returned and the error is recorded.

Why it's built on a ledger

• Every movement is an append-only, idempotent entry — safe to retry without double-charging.
• Balances are row-locked, so two conversations settling at once can never oversell.
• A nightly reconcile heals any drift between your balance and the ledger.

The result: the co-pilot keeps up with your busiest days, and your bill only ever reflects the replies it actually generated.
