**Usage and billing**

# How does billing work?

We have four subscription tiers that cater to different use cases. The [free tier](https://chatthing.ai/docs/free-plan) should be enough to let you test out Chat Thing, but for most real world use cases you will need to subscribe to one of our paid plans, **[Basic](https://chatthing.ai/docs/basic-plan)**, **[Standard](https://chatthing.ai/docs/standard-plan)**, **[Pro](https://chatthing.ai/docs/pro-plan)** or **[Enterprise](https://chatthing.ai/docs/enterprise-plan)**.

Each tier offers a differing amount of storage tokens, which determines how much data can be connected to your bot, and message tokens which determine how many messages your bot can handle and respond to.

💡

Your message tokens and storage tokens reset on the 1st of each month!
