Compute credits and spending limit

Take control of your usage costs with two new features: compute credits and spending limit. Together, they give you more flexibility and predictability in how you manage spend on Axiom.

Compute credits let you pre-purchase usage at a discount, so you can save while covering core costs like data loading and query compute. The more you buy upfront, the more you save—making it easier to budget for growth while still enjoying the speed and scale of Axiom.

Spending limit adds an extra layer of control by letting you set a monthly cap on usage-based costs. Once your organization reaches the limit, Axiom automatically pauses usage that would incur further charges, such as running queries or monitors. This helps you stay within budget, though it may cause service interruptions until the next cycle begins.

With these features, you get the best of both worlds: flexibility to save with credits and confidence in knowing your spend won’t exceed what you planned.

Ready to take control of your costs? Learn more in the docs or head to Settings > Billing to try it out today.
