How does Kiodo pricing work?
Kiodo uses credit-based API usage. Each successful metered request returns usage metadata so your app can track cost and balance.
Is Kiodo priced per seat?
Kiodo is API-first. You can use one API key across scripts, agents, internal tools, and product backends instead of forcing every user into a separate SaaS seat.
