Learn how to get and manage your Mila API usage and pricing.

​
Account Structure

When you sign up for Mila, you’ll create an organization that serves as your billing and management entity.
1

Create Organization

During signup, you’ll create one organization per person. This organization manages all your billing and projects.
2

Create Projects

Within your organization, you can create multiple projects to organize your different applications or environments (e.g., “Production App”, “Development”, “Mobile App”).
3

Generate API Keys

Each project can have multiple API keys, allowing you to manage access and track usage per application or team member.
Billing is tied to your organization, not individual projects. All API usage across all projects and API keys within your organization counts toward your plan limits.

​

​
Overage Handling

When your organization exceeds your plan’s included requests:
  • Free Plan: API access will be suspended for all projects until the next billing cycle
  • Developer Plan: Overages charged at $8 per 1,000 requests across all organization usage
  • Growth Plan: Overages charged at $6 per 1,000 requests across all organization usage
  • Pay-as-you-go: Charged at $10 per 1,000 requests for all organization usage
Set up billing alerts in your organization dashboard to avoid unexpected overage charges. Usage from all projects and API keys counts toward your organization limits.
