Hyperagent Pricing 2026: Plans, Credits, What a Run Costs
Hyperagent costs between $20 and $10,000 a month, and every dollar you pay comes back as credit for your agents to spend, plus a bonus that grows with the plan. The plan is easy to read. The bill is harder, because the credit drains at a rate set by what each run does.
The short verdict: Hyperagent 100, at $100 for $115 of credit, is the sensible starting point for one person who wants agents that browse, build, and deliver finished artifacts. The complaints cluster around three things: research tasks that burn credit fast, runs that could not be stopped, and plan credit that expires at the end of the period whether you used it or not. If the work you want done is the same recurring operating job every day, Carly offers free Zapier-style workflows, with AI agents from $35/month, so the question changes from what a run costs to what a month costs.

There is no free plan in the documentation and no public pricing page on the marketing site. A $1,000 signup credit offer circulated through mid-2026 and shows up in referral links, and the docs say promotional and referral credits arrive as separate blocks with their own expiry dates. Check what your own signup screen shows before counting on it.
What a credit buys
Credits are a dollar balance. Each run deducts the metered work behind it, itemized on the Usage card: model tokens, image generation, video seconds, text-to-speech, web searches, browser session time, integration actions, and avatar video. A one-line question costs cents. A research job that reads dozens of pages and generates images costs dollars.
Hyperagent’s own homepage prices its sample deliverables per job: a brand identity and launch site at $3.88 in 15 minutes, an out-of-home ad campaign at $6.41, a hiring dashboard at $14.18, and a cinematic real estate video at $24.79 in 29 minutes. Those are the jobs it chose to show. The credits documentation says the model you pick is the biggest lever on cost, followed by thread length, because every reply carries the earlier conversation.
When credit expires
This is the part that decides whether the bonus is real money:
- Plan credit expires at the end of the billing period. Nothing rolls over. If you pay $100 and spend $60, the other $55 is gone when the period renews.
- Purchased blocks last 90 days. You can buy any whole-dollar amount from $10 to $25,000, one dollar of credit per dollar, with no bonus.
- Promotional and referral blocks expire on their listed date. Hyperagent spends whichever block expires soonest first.
By default the plan price is all you pay. When the credit is gone, runs pause until the next period. Auto-recharge is the one setting that lets Hyperagent charge your card beyond the plan, and the docs are candid that a misbehaving agent can keep recharging while it is on. Set a threshold you can live with, and use the per-agent Budget limit per query so a single task cannot run away.
Running GPT models on your ChatGPT plan
If you already pay for ChatGPT, you can connect it through OAuth and supported GPT model usage runs against that subscription instead of Hyperagent credit. Other models, image and video generation, search, and browser sessions still bill through Hyperagent, and you need an active Hyperagent plan for the connection to work. It is a real saving for GPT-heavy work, and a reason the $20 plan can stretch further than it looks.
Upgrades, cancellations, and refunds
Upgrades apply immediately with a prorated charge for the rest of the period. Downgrades and cancellations take effect when the current period ends, and you keep your credit until then. There is no self-serve refund for unused time. If an agent errored or looped and ate credit, the docs ask you to send Support the thread link and a rough credit count for review. The terms of service, updated August 31, 2026, add a 14-day refund right for customers in the EU and Turkey, and say credits have no cash value and cannot be transferred.
What users report paying extra for
Reviewers who have run Hyperagent for months agree on where the credit goes. Web research is the expensive category, and one small-business reviewer now hands Hyperagent a shortlist of sites from another tool instead of letting it search. The same reviewer once watched credit climb on a backend scan that could not be interrupted, and now writes “research tasks must be stoppable” into every agent prompt. Model switching, including cheaper open-weight models added in September, is the fix most people land on.
One naming trap: Hyperagent was announced by Airtable’s CEO in February 2026, then moved into a separate company, Hyperagent, Inc., before Airtable’s sale to Bending Spoons closed on September 4, 2026. Airtable’s own in-product agents still bill through Airtable’s per-seat plans. That is a different meter, and articles that quote “$20 per user” for Hyperagent are describing Airtable.
Where Carly fits
Hyperagent charges for the inference behind each deliverable, and that shape suits commissioned work: a video, a deck, a candidate slate. It fits less well when Michael wants the same inbox triaged every morning and the CRM updated after every call, because each repetition draws down the same balance.
Carly is built for that recurring operating work. You email or text it like a colleague, it connects to thousands of apps, and its event triggers start a job when the email arrives or the calendar changes rather than waiting to be asked. The Zapier-style workflows are free, and AI agents start at $35/month. If you are weighing the whole category, the Hyperagent alternatives roundup groups seven platforms by what a month actually costs.

"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.
Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.
On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
