What is Metrecept?
Metrecept is the black box for autonomous AI agents: one OpenAI-compatible pipe that sits in front of your existing model providers and turns every call — a completion, a compliant web fetch, an agent's mid-session call to a third-party API — into a signed, independently verifiable receipt. Point Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, or any MCP-capable tool at it and repeated context also becomes cache hits billed at a fraction of a fresh provider call, as a byproduct of the same metering. See the docs for the full picture.
What is a receipt, and why should I trust it?
You shouldn't have to — that's the point. A receipt is a compact, signed proof (Ed25519/JWS) of what actually crossed the pipe: a cache hit, an API call, or an entire agent session rolled into one aggregate. Anyone can verify the signature independently with nothing but a public key — no Metrecept code required, no Metrecept credentials required. Run it yourself on the waste demo or the session demo, or read the black box for the full mechanism.
How does the metering system work?
The Intermediate seat is $0/month — you pay only metered rates for what actually flows through the pipe: $0.0020 per 1k tokens on cache hits, $0.0010 per 1k tokens on cache misses, and $0.0030 per web fetch URL. Usage is reported to Stripe as it happens and appears itemised on a single monthly invoice. The published schedule lives on the subscriptions page, and you can watch your own numbers live with the ohm_usage MCP tool.
Does Metrecept give free access with free API token generation?
No. Metrecept is BYOK — bring your own keys. We never generate or resell provider tokens; your OpenAI/Anthropic/etc. keys stay yours and upstream usage is billed by your provider as normal. What Metrecept charges for is the pipe itself: a $0 seat plus the metered rates above. The receipt is free — it is a byproduct of metering the crossing, not a paid add-on. Savings come from cache hits that stop you re-paying your provider for context it has already seen.
Is my cached data private?
Yes. Caches are strictly per-tenant — your workspace's entries are keyed to your tenant and are never shared with, or readable by, any other customer. Receipts themselves carry metadata (digests, token counts, costs), never prompt or completion content. Aggregate statistics (like the public savings counter) are anonymous totals with no prompt or completion content. Details live in Privacy and Security.
How do I cancel?
Any time, self-serve, via the Stripe billing portal linked from your checkout confirmation email — cancellation stops future metering immediately and your final invoice covers only usage already consumed. There is no seat fee to unwind on Intermediate. If anything blocks you, send a query and a human unblocks you.
