Plans and Billing
Semaphore Cloud offers several plans for your organization. This page explains how you can view your current plan and how billing is calculated.
Overview
Every organization on Semaphore Cloud is tied to a billing plan.
How to view current spending
To see your spending:
-
Open your organization menu
-
Select Plans & Billing
-
The overview tab shows your monthly spending
-
You can view detailed breakdowns in three ways
- Spending: shows costs due to machine usage, storage and egress
- Projects: shows the costs generated by your most active projects
How Spending is Calculated
In addition to subscription cost, your monthly bill is determined by your usage of the following four groups of resources:
- Machine Time - the cost of using Semaphore Cloud machines (calculated by the minute)
- Storage and Egress - the cost of storing and downloading your build artifacts
- Add-ons - additional features or services offered by Semaphore Cloud (e.g. priority support, a dedicated cache server)
You can monitor your monthly spending at any time on the Plans & Billing page within the app. Please note that spending data may take up to 24 hours to update.
How machine usage is billed
Semaphore charges you based on the machine type used and the amount of time spent running. The timer starts when a job enters the running state and ends once the job is finished. Jobs that take less than one minute to complete will be rounded up to a full minute for billing purposes.
"Only running time is billed" Please note that time spent in the queue state due to concurrency limits or pipeline queues is not counted towards machine time used.
