How credits work

Cost is computed from your analysis — not a flat fee.

The formula

cost = 10 + engine_credits × year_factor

year_factor = max(1.0, years / 5)

10

Base cost per run — location, configuration, export.

engine_credits

Each engine you enable adds credits by tier.

year_factor

Years of climate history scale engine cost. 1–5 years is free; 10 years doubles it.

credits per run — depending on engines enabled and years of climate history.

Typical feasibility run

10 + (2 + 2 + 2) × 1.0 = 16 credits

A 5-year study with Conduction, Latent / Crop ET, and Ventilation.

Full 10-year study

10 + (2 + 8 + 9) × 2.0 = 48 credits

Every engine enabled over 10 years (Metrics 2×1 + Physics 4×2 + Sizing 3×3, with Fan & Pad + Fog, no Chiller).

High-resolution runs (ORC-ARCH-lite, v1.2) are flat 500 credits — arriving as a separate premium tier.

Frequently asked

If your question isn't here, get in touch.

What's a credit?

A credit is the unit of cost for a single WDAT analysis run. Most runs fall between 10 and 30 credits — see the formula above for the exact cost.

Do credits expire?

Purchased credits don't expire while your account is active. Free monthly credits reset on the 1st of each month and don't roll over.

What happens if I run out?

Your free tier refreshes on the 1st of each month with 180 credits. If you can't wait, buy a pack — purchased credits stack with your free balance.

How does regional pricing work?

The prices on this page are in USD. At checkout, Paddle detects your country and applies a regional multiplier automatically. There's no selector or calculator on this page.

Are there subscriptions?

Not at launch. Credits-only keeps things simple and fair for occasional users. A subscription tier for heavy users is planned for a later phase.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Unused credits can be refunded within 14 days of purchase. Reach out through the contact page and we'll handle it.

What payment methods are supported?

Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Maestro, JCB, Discover, Diners Club, UnionPay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, iDEAL, and Alipay — all processed by Paddle. No card details ever touch WDAT.

Is there an enterprise or volume discount beyond the 5,000 pack?

Yes. If you need more than 5,000 credits at once, team billing, or a custom plan, get in touch via the contact page and we'll arrange it.
