Required explanation
Cache, Usage, and Billing+
Results are cached for 30 days using the normalized source text, locale, and mode. A cache hit returns the existing result, sets usage.cacheHit to true, and reports usage.inputCharacters as 0. Cached results do not count against the monthly character allowance.
The application shows current usage, remaining included characters, estimated additional usage, and the billing period.
Sandbox includes 15,000 characters per month and stops at the limit.
Paid plans can continue with additional usage when the workspace owner enables it.
If additional usage is disabled, API calls, widgets, Editor requests, jobs, and batches pause at the monthly limit until the next billing period.
Failed processing does not consume the reserved characters.
Repeated content served from the cache does not consume characters.
