Question

How does token billing work in Timpi Orca?

Token accounting gives workflow owners visibility into cost before and after execution.

Answer

Timpi Orca charges tokens for workflow execution. Every step can have a base cost, and extra costs can be added for AI calls, model tier, returned LLM tokens and Timpi data-source access. This helps support both testing and production use.

The Controller checks token balances, records ledger entries and writes transaction records for auditability. Users can view their token balance and transaction history in their account overlay, while admins can review usage, payments and adjustments.
