Compute Units (CUs)

CUs are Whim’s unified billing currency. Today, most teams use CUs for container runtime only because Claude and Codex run on your own subscriptions. CCR/OpenRouter token billing is coming soon.

What is a CU?

Resource1 CU ≈
Container runtime30 minutes at base config (1 vCPU + 1 GB RAM)
Input tokens~14,000 tokens
Output tokens~2,800 tokens
USD cost~$0.044
Higher machine profiles consume CUs proportionally faster.

How CUs Are Calculated

Container CU — 1 CU per 30 minutes of active container time. Pausing or sleeping a task stops accrual. Token CU — metered by tokens processed when token-billed providers are enabled. More expensive models consume CUs faster. Total CU = container CU + token CU (when token billing applies).

CU Allocation

CUs are allocated weekly and reset every 7 days from your subscription anchor:
PlanCU per week
Free25
Pro100
Max500 (base, scales with multiplier)
Unused CUs do not roll over. Each week starts fresh.

Warning Thresholds

LevelThresholdIndicator
Normal< 80% usedGreen
Warning80% usedYellow
Critical90% usedRed
Depleted100% usedTasks may be paused
When fully depleted, a grace period lets running tasks finish briefly. You can’t start new tasks until your period resets or you upgrade.

Reserved Machine CUs

Warm containers kept ready for instant task starts consume 3 CU per week per reserved machine. Default reserves by plan: Free (3), Pro (5), Max (10). Maximum 20 per tracked branch.

Bonus CU

Bonus CU from promotions or credits is tracked separately and used after your regular weekly allocation is consumed.

Usage Dashboard

Available in Settings → Usage with a real-time view of your team’s CU consumption.

CU Balance

Shows your current allocation, remaining balance, a color-coded progress bar, and the current period window (start/end dates).

Payment & Invoices

Whim uses Stripe for payment processing. Manage your payment methods via Settings → Plan → Manage Billing, which opens the Stripe portal where you can:
  • Add or update credit/debit cards
  • View payment history and download invoices
  • Update billing information
Invoices are generated automatically for subscription charges, proration charges (mid-cycle upgrades), and proration credits (unused time after plan changes).

Changing Plans

  1. Go to Settings → Plan.
  2. Select your desired plan and billing period.
  3. For Max, adjust the capacity multiplier if needed.
  4. Review the proration preview showing credits, charges, and net amount.
  5. Confirm.
Upgrades apply immediately with a fresh CU period. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period.
