## Pricing

| Plan | Price | Included | Beyond that | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Enterprise (enterprise) | Contact sales | — | API list price. The contract is quoted against these per-token list rates, for example kimi-k3 at $3.00 input and $15.00 output per 1M tokens, deepseek-v4.1-flash at $0.30 and $1.20. Nemotron 3 Ultra, the fastest model on the platform, is quoted separately as a blended $0.44 per 1M tokens. Rates improve further as committed spend grows, at least 5 percent off closed models and at least 10 percent off open models. | Annual purchase order, committed spend metered per token as it is consumed, unused balance expires at the end of the billing period; Dedicated forward-deployed engineer, implementation included at no extra cost; Dedicated single-tenant deployment, data residency, guaranteed TPM and custom rate limits; SAML SSO, SCIM, RBAC, audit logs, zero data retention under contract and DPA, PII removed before closed models; Dedicated Remote Agent runners with SSO, Agents API for cloud coding agents |

The pricing page no longer lists a Free plan or a self-serve pay-per-token tier that were on file before 2026-08-28. Every tier now requires an enterprise commit made through sales, quoted against reference per-token rates; there is no signup that bypasses it. Multi-agent mode dispatches to Claude Code, Codex and Gemini, but the site does not say whether it runs your own installs and logins, so no wraps are recorded.

## License

- **SPDX**: Proprietary

The CLI page says the CLI is open source but links no repository, and the @blackbox/cli package was not on the npm registry on 2026-08-23, so it is recorded as proprietary until a repo turns up.
