Manage your Postman AI credits

Agent Mode is available with Free, Basic, and Professional plans. To learn more, see About Postbot.

You and your team members receive a monthly AI credit allowance to use on Postman AI features, regardless of whether you’re on a Free, Basic, or Professional plan.

When your team members reach their monthly credit limit, what happens next depends on your plan:

  • Free plan — You can purchase the Postman AI add-on to get more monthly credits. After purchasing the add-on, you follow the same credit and pay-as-you-go model as Basic and Professional plans.
  • Basic and Professional plans — You can keep using Agent Mode after reaching your limit so long as pay-as-you-go is enabled by a Billing admin. If pay-as-you-go isn’t enabled for a team member, Agent Mode pauses until monthly credits renew.

Pay-as-you-go lets you continue using AI beyond your included monthly credits and is billed at your plan’s specified rate.

AI credits renew monthly on your billing date, and they don’t roll over between periods.

Availability: The Postman AI pricing structure will become effective December 1. For more information, see Plans & Pricing.

How Agent Mode consumes credits

Regardless of the plan, each Postman user is allotted some free AI credits every month. Credits are consumed each time Agent Mode performs an AI-powered action, such as generating or refining requests, writing tests, or creating documentation.

PlanCredits per user/monthBeyond the limit
Free50When the limit is reached, you can either pause usage until monthly credits reset or purchase the Postman AI add-on for additional credits and optional pay-as-you-go.
Basic and Professional400When the limit is reached, if you have pay-as-you-go turned on, you can continue using Agent Mode without interruption. If pay-as-you-go is turned off, Agent Mode is paused until monthly credits renew.

Pay-as-you-go charges appear on your next monthly invoice and are billed to the payment method on file. You’ll see the AI credit charges on your invoice.

Track your team’s AI credit usage

Postman notifies you when you reach 75% and 100% of your AI credit limit, and again when you exceed it. Once you reach 100%, you’ll see an in-product alert letting you know whether usage will pause or continue with pay-as-you-go (if turned on by your Billing admin).

If you have an Admin or Billing role, you receive an email when one or more of your team members has spent 75% of their monthly credits and again when members of your team transition to pay-as-you-go. Billing role users will get one additional email when their team’s total pay-as-you-go charges exceed a certain usage threshold.

You can use the Resource usage dashboard to view the resources your team is using and view your team member’s remaining AI credits for the billing period.

Manage pay-as-you-go

Pay-as-you-go is turned on by default in Postman AI add-on and Basic and Professional plans. If you have a Billing role, you can turn off pay-as-you-go for individual users in the AI credit details page dashboard.

When pay-as-you-go is turned off, Agent Mode access is paused once you reach the credit limit. You can resume using Agent Mode after the monthly allotment renews.

For Basic and Professional teams with Agent Mode enabled on December 1, pay-as-you-go has been disabled for all members. A Billing role user can enable it at any time in the AI Credit Details page.
