Bito offers two plans:
Forever Free
10X Developer Plan
Read more details on Bito's Pricing page or watch the video below to learn how Billing and Paid Plans work in Bito.
In summary, the Forever Free plan is Free and provides a powerful set of capabilities for individual and hobbyist developers to use Bito with a daily limit of 20 chats per user (subject to our Fair Use Policy) using Basic AI models, work on development in over 50+ programming languages, communicate in over 20 spoken languages (English, Chinese, Spanish, etc.), work with templates, and use the Bito CLI.
The 10X Developer Plan is $15 per user per month (billed monthly starting on the 1st of the month) and includes all the features of the Forever Free plan, and also provides access to Advanced AI Models such as OpenAI's GPT-4o, Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 3.5, and best in class AI models. It also provides much longer chat context, files, and discussions (up to 110 single-spaced pages), and AI that indexes and understands your code.
The 10X Developer Plan includes 600 Advanced AI Requests per month, additional requests (or overages) are charged at US $0.03 per request. For example, if you used 650 Advanced AI Requests in the month, 600 are included already in your 10X Developer Plan, and 50 are additional at US $0.03 per request (equals to US $1.5 additional), for a total of US$16.5.
In addition to the above details, Bito offers a simplified pricing model for its AI Code Review Agent, designed to provide flexibility and fairness in billing based on actual usage. The AI Code Review Agent is billed at a flat rate of $15 per pull request (PR) submitter per month.
A submitter is any unique user who creates a pull request (PR) in repositories where the AI Code Review Agent is configured. Submitters can include both workspace members and external contributors.
Workspaces are billed based on the greater of:
The total number of active users in the workspace.
The total number of unique PR submitters (including external contributors).
For example, if a workspace has 4 active users, but only 2 unique submitters (1 active user and 1 external contributor), the workspace will be billed for 4 users. If the number of submitters exceeds the active users, billing adjusts to reflect the higher number of submitters.
Bito automatically checks each week to determine if the number of submitters has surpassed the active users. If it has, billing seats for the workspace are updated to match the total submitters.
Once the number of billing seats increases (based on the submitters), it remains at that level and does not decrease in the future.
If additional active users join the workspace and their number surpasses the submitters, billing adjusts to reflect the increased number of active users.
When billing seats increase mid-month due to additional submitters or active users, the charges for those seats are prorated. For instance, if a new seat is added halfway through the month, the charge will be 50% of the monthly rate ($7.50 instead of $15).
All billing and plans functionality is available at Bito’s website by logging in with your email. Additionally, from Bito's IDE plug-in, click on the hamburger menu icon in the top-right corner (denoted by three horizontal lines) and select Account Settings to redirect to Bito's website.
From there you can go to the Billing and Plans page to access the billing functionality.
Note: You cannot make billing changes directly from the Bito IDE extension.
Bito uses Stripe to handle all payment processing and securely store your credit card/payment information. Bito itself does not store your credit card/payment information.
Bito bills at the Workspace level. All users within a given Workspace will be billed on the same plan. You cannot have some users on the 10X Developer Plan and some users on the Forever Free plan, within the same workspace.
When you signed up for Bito, you created or joined a workspace. Primary Owners, Owners, and Admins can change the billing plan for a workspace. You can see your workspace by going to Home page or Workspace Settings page. You can see your Role by going to Members page. You can change your workspace by logging out, and when you log-in, you will choose which workspace you want to be a part of. It’s similar to Slack, where you can access different workspaces.
Within each Workspace, Bito bills at the seat (sometimes referred to as “user”) level from the first of the month to the last day of the month. So, if you have 12 users in your Workspace (let’s call it the “MyCompany” workspace), when an Admin signs up for the 10X Developer Plan, the “MyCompany” workspace will be billed for all 12 users. Bito’s 10X Developer Plan costs $15 per user per month. So, you will pay $180 per month for 12 users, and that will be charged on the 1st of the month for the next month. To give an example, on September 1, you would be charged $180 for the month of September. Any overages you had in terms of accessing Advanced AI models for the month of August, would also be charged on September 1.
To repeat, each month’s bill will include your base $15 per month fee per user for the current month, and the overage charges for the previous month.
Your first month when you sign up, you will be billed for the current month in a prorated fashion. For example, if you signed up in the middle of March, you would be billed $7.50 per seat (half of the $15 full month fee).
