Limits worth knowing in Inworld AI
- Overage is billed at the plan's own rates, and extra credits expire one year after purchase.
- The 70 free minutes on On-Demand are not described as monthly, so treat them as a trial amount.
- Zero data retention starts at Developer, and HIPAA and BAA are Growth add-ons.
- The page showed monthly prices; a Yearly toggle advertises 2 months free, so the annual amounts were not read.
