How the monthly allowance works
On paid plans, chat, research, analysis and agent runs all draw from one shared monthly allowance. Spark uses the least. Flow and Emi, long documents and multi-step agent runs use more, and Orbit shows an estimate before a large request.
If a request would go past your limit, Orbit declines it and explains why. It doesn’t bill you extra. Allowances reset on the first of each month at 00:00 UTC.
Which plan suits you
- Free suits trying Orbit, occasional questions and light document work with Spark. No card is needed.
- Starter suits regular use. It adds the Flow model, a larger allowance and cloud audio transcription for meetings and interviews.
- Pro suits heavier research and analysis. It adds the Emi model and the largest cloud allowance.

Common questions
Can I try Orbit before paying?
Yes. Free costs A$0, needs no card and includes a monthly Spark allowance. Upgrade from Account and billing when you need more.
What happens if I use up my allowance?
Orbit declines requests that would go past your limit and tells you why. It doesn’t charge extra. The allowance resets on the first of the month at 00:00 UTC.
Can I change or cancel my plan?
Subscriptions are managed through Stripe from Account and billing in Orbit, and renew on your billing date. Check the Orbit pricing page for the current terms.
Which model should I use?
Spark is the lightest and uses the least allowance, so it suits quick questions. Flow and Emi handle longer documents and more complex analysis, and use more of the allowance.
