Agent Minutes are only counted when NonBioS is actively building - not when you're thinking, typing, or reviewing code. NonBioS works incredibly fast: a landing page takes ~10 seconds, a simple CRM with MySQL backend takes ~1 minute. Most developers find they use about 1 Agent Minute for every 10 minutes spent in NonBioS, since most time is spent reviewing and testing rather than building.

We're currently pricing NonBioS at our exact upstream costs - meaning we make $0 profit on usage fees. We only charge what we pay for the AI models and infrastructure. As we unlock efficiency gains and optimize our systems, we expect to reduce costs further while maintaining this transparent, at-cost pricing model. This means you're getting enterprise-grade AI development assistance at the lowest possible price.

The key is understanding NonBioS's speed. While $99/month might seem high, consider that the included minutes are sufficient to build dozens of complete applications. A typical freelance developer charges $50-150/hour and would take hours to build what NonBioS completes in minutes. Most users find even our free plan sufficient for medium-sized projects once they experience how quickly NonBioS works.

Every user gets a private Ubuntu-based Linux sandbox with root permissions. If you have a paid subscription, the sandbox will be retained till your subscription is active. For users in the Free plan, the sandbox will reset after 4 days of inactivity (you'll get an email alert on day 3). Simply log in and use NonBioS on day 3 to extend it another 4 days.

Your agent pauses until you add more minutes. You have three options:

1. Rebuy your current plan - Instantly adds the same amount of minutes (e.g. another 180 for Vibecoder)
2. Upgrade to a higher tier - Get more minutes and keep the higher limit permanently
3. Wait for next billing cycle - Your minutes reset automatically

All purchases are prorated based on your billing cycle.

Absolutely! You can rebuy your current subscription at any time to instantly add another batch of minutes to your account. For example, if you're on the Developer plan ($99), rebuying adds another 660 Agent Minutes immediately. This is perfect for occasional heavy usage months without committing to a higher tier permanently.

Absolutely! Each concurrent task consumes Agent Minutes, so running 3 tasks for 1 minute each uses 3 Agent Minutes total. Perfect for managing multiple projects or testing different approaches.

No, minutes reset each billing cycle. This keeps pricing simple and predictable - no complex rollover calculations or expiring credits to track.
