Build Balance & Costs

What happens if my balance runs out during a build?

The build pauses and keeps everything it has done. Add at least $10 and press Continue the build to pick up where it left off. Your site stays up.

You pay for the work that already ran, and that work is kept on the work order. Nothing is lost.

  1. Press Add funds on the paused work order, or in the corner of the editor.
  2. Add at least $10.
  3. Press Continue the build.

Your live site keeps running with a $0 balance, AI steps included. Your app's plan pays for those, never your build balance.

Good to know

Turn on auto-reload, or keep "Keep the build running" ticked when you add funds, so a build never pauses.
