What counts as usage
Usage is measured in verified tasks — each unit Zevron takes through the funnel.
Every task records the tier it reached (T0–T3) and the mode it ran in
(--fast or --verified).
What it costs
There's no billing or allotment — you bring your own OpenRouter API key, and every build spends against it directly. Because the funnel kills most candidates for $0 before the expensive stages, a verified task averages 4–9¢ in OpenRouter usage, and the registry pushes that down over time.
Where to see it
Your dashboard breaks usage down by tier and mode, and plots tasks and spend over time:
- Usage — charts and the tier / mode breakdown
- Plan — how billing works (it doesn't, yet — bring your own key)
Locally, zevron status shows the current build's units and spend.
