- Billing basis What the meter counts: wall-clock allocated resources, active CPU only, requests/plan quota, session-hours, or free software.
- wall clock (source: Freestyle Pricing)
- vCPU price $/vCPU-hr Published on-demand CPU rate normalised to USD per vCPU-hour (per-second rates multiplied by 3,600; per-core rates divided by vCPUs per core where the vendor defines it). Lowest public tier, default region.
- $0.0403 (source: Freestyle Pricing)
- Memory price $/GiB-hr Published memory rate normalised to USD per GiB-hour (GB treated as GiB where the vendor does not distinguish). 0 means the vendor states memory is free.
- $0.0129 (source: Freestyle Pricing)
- Sandbox from $/sandbox-hr Smallest published per-sandbox hourly price, where the vendor publishes one.

- Free forever: 200 vCPU-hours and 400 GiB-hours per month, 10 concurrent VMs. (source: Freestyle Pricing)
- Cold start ms Vendor-published create/boot time in milliseconds. Only filled when the vendor publishes a number; see startup_claim for context (percentile, conditions).
- 400 (source: Freestyle Docs)
