Agent quota & billing
Agent mode uses Kimi's unified quota system. All membership features (Agent, Deep Research, Slides, Docs, Sheets, Kimi Code, Kimi Claw, etc.) share a single quota pool, with quota deducted based on actual token consumption.
Billing model
- Unified quota: All membership features share one quota pool — allocate usage however you like
- Pay-per-use: Quota consumption depends on task complexity and duration (i.e., token usage) — simple tasks cost less, complex tasks cost more
- Monthly refresh: Quota resets monthly, aligned with your subscription cycle
- Usage priority: Bonus quota (e.g., trial credits, promotional rewards) is consumed first, followed by plan quota
Example: With a Moderato plan, generating a simple PPT might consume about 1–2% of quota, while a single Deep Research session might use about 5–10%.
What happens when quota runs out?
When your quota is exhausted:
- Any task currently in progress will complete normally
- New tasks will show an "insufficient quota" notice
- Your options:
- Wait for your monthly quota to auto-refresh
- Upgrade to a higher-tier membership for more quota
How to check quota usage？
- Web: Profile → Settings → Subscription
- App: Profile → Membership Plan → Subscription What you can view:
- Current quota balance (as a percentage)
- Next refresh date
- Last 10 usage records (timestamp, feature used, consumption percentage)
Usage records may have a brief delay. Refer to the actual quota display for the most current information.
Does a failed task still consume quota?
- Quota is deducted after a task executes successfully, based on actual consumption
- If a task fails due to a system error (no valid result returned), click the 👎 button to report it. After verification, the corresponding quota will be refunded
