Setting up and managing a Textual Cloud pay-as-you-go subscription

The Tonic Textual pay-as-you-go plan allows you to automatically bill a credit card for your Textual usage.

The Textual subscription plan charges a flat rate for each 1000 words. You are billed each month based on when you started your subscription. For example, if you start your subscription on the 12th of the month, then you are billed every month on the 12th.

Tonic.ai integrates with a payment processing solution to manage the payments.
