InfluxDB Cloud offers a [Free Plan](#free-plan), a [Usage-Based Plan](#usage-based-plan) to pay as you go, and a discounted [Annual Plan](#annual-plan).
|
||
|
||
<!--To estimate your projected usage costs, use the [InfluxDB Cloud pricing calculator](/influxdb/cloud/account-management/pricing-calculator/). -->
|
||
|
||
## Free Plan
|
||
|
||
All new {{< product-name >}} accounts start with Free Plan that provides a limited number of resources and data usage. See [plan limits](/influxdb/cloud/account-management/limits/).
|
||
|
||
## Usage-Based Plan
|
||
|
||
The Usage-Based Plan offers more flexibility and ensures you only pay for what you [use](/influxdb/cloud/account-management/data-usage/). Usage-Based Plans are based on consumption as measured by usage on the [pricing vectors](#pricing-vectors).
|
||
|
||
Usage-Based Plans also offer access to all notification endpoints such as PagerDuty, Slack, HTTP, and [endpoints available in Flux](/flux/v0/tags/notification-endpoints/).
|
||
|
||
### Pricing vectors
|
||
|
||
The Usage-Based Plan uses the following pricing vectors to calculate InfluxDB Cloud billing costs:
|
||
|
||
- **Data out** is the total sum of the data (measured in GB) returned to the user to answer a query, also known as data transfer costs.
|
||
- **Query count** is the total number of individual query operations:
|
||
- Each individual operation—including queries, tasks, alerts, notifications, and Data Explorer activity—is one billable query operation.
|
||
- Refreshing a dashboard with multiple cells will incur multiple query operations.
|
||
- Failed operations aren’t counted.
|
||
- **Data In** is the amount of data you’re writing into InfluxDB (measured in MB).
|
||
- **Storage** is the amount of data you’re storing in InfluxDB (measured in GB/hour).
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Annual Plan
|
||
<!-- Maybe this should be "annual commitment"? -->
|
||
|
||
An Annual Plan offers a discount for a commitment to a specific amount of usage over set period of time. This plan uses the same pricing vectors and calculation methodology as Usage-Based Plans.
