Flexi Credits rate card
The Flexi Credits each Atlan AI capability uses, for AI enrichment, conversational AI, and advanced MCP tools, with worked examples.
Flexi Credits are the one unit currency for Atlan's AI. This page lists what each capability costs. Rates can change from time to time, and new capabilities are added as they become available. To understand what uses Flexi Credits and how charges are counted, see How Flexi Credits work. For how Flexi Credits fit with your platform subscription, see How Atlan pricing works.
| Area | Capability | Unit | Flexi Credits |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI enrichment | Description | Per asset | 10 |
| README | Per asset | 50 | |
| SQL Intelligence | Per object | 100 | |
| Conversational AI | Quick | Per answer | 10 |
| Deep | Per answer | 30 | |
| Adaptive | Per answer | 10 or 30, for whichever mode runs |
Coming soon: Lakehouse compute.
How the units are counted:
- Asset: anything with a profile in Atlan, such as a table, column, or dashboard.
- Answer: a question and its answer. A follow-up question counts as a new answer.
Advanced MCP tools use these same rates when they invoke Atlan AI to generate what they write. Writing content your own agents or tools produced through essential MCP tools never uses Flexi Credits, even when advanced tools are on in Labs. See MCP tools.
