Hey, We have both CDCK Hosted LLMs and CDCK Hosted embeddings preconfigured in our hosted instance (which is great). Are these free to use and is there a usage limit (other than fair use)? I couldn’t really see much about that on the pricing page and when the question was asked in [Debugging AI chat - #4 by Eric\_Platzek](https://meta.discourse.org/t/debugging-ai-chat/349150/4) it wasn’t really answered. Thanks a lot! ---

The CDCK-hosted LLMs are available experimentally for any hosted sites that opt in via the toggle under the “What’s New” feed. During this phase, there is no extra cost and no usage limit other than fair use. ![This image showcases newly introduced experimental AI features in a software platform, highlighting AI search and AI summaries as key updates in February 2025.

This is not experimental and is offered as part of our hosting service. ---

Great, thank you! I assume we’d get an email or some other notification if this changes for the LLMs and it would tell us what the cost would be? ---

Yes, any changes would mean closing down the existing experiments and creating a whole new offer. ---

Sorry if this has been asked / answered anywhere else. Are there any costs incurred with these LLM’s at the moment? I have enabled the AI Spam detection, noticed the tokens being used, I just want to ensure I am not incurring costs. Thanks Joe ---

> [@Joe\_F](#): > > Are there any costs incurred with these LLM’s at the moment? No costs are incurred if you are using Discourse hosted LLMs via the What’s New experiments If you use a 3rd party LLM such as OpenAI, Claude etc, then you will need to check with the respective provider for costs ---
