Free plan in real output
New users get $5 of one-time credits and a 7-message daily limit.

- Model usage is metered in tokens; v0 Pro is listed at $2 per 1M input tokens and $10 per 1M output tokens.
Cost at your stage
| Plan | Monthly cost | |
|---|---|---|
| Month 1 (testing, low volume) | Free | $0 |
| Month 12 (working volume) | Plus | $30 |
Break-even: Plus at $30/mo is covered by one small site-section job.
