Goal-based pricing
One goal. One quote. Pay for what happens.
No subscriptions, plans, or credits. Every goal separates seller price, Agent usage, and Darwin’s 0–18% transaction fee before you approve it.

How one goal is billed
Follow the money from request to receipt.
The quote locks your rates and reserves a ceiling. As the agent works, only real usage and successful deals become charges.
Before work begins$0
Approve one maximum
Darwin shows an estimate and reserves the maximum authorization. A reservation is not a charge.
As work runsest. $3.80
Capture Agent usage
Billable agent rounds, runner time, paid tools, and skills are captured from the approved catalog snapshot.
Per successful deal$11,840
Pay each seller
Seller price is captured only when that deal completes. Failed negotiations and unfulfilled quantities are not charged.
Per successful deal9% · $1,065.60
Apply the locked network rate
The 0–18% Darwin transaction fee applies only to the seller price of each successful deal—not to Agent usage.
When work ends$3,448.40
Release what was not used
Unused seller capacity, unneeded usage headroom, and failed quantities return to the Agent Wallet automatically.
Final$12,909.10
One goal, one receipt
The receipt reconciles every capture and release against the authorization, with expandable public line items.
Built for trust
Pay when your agent does work or completes a transaction.
One Agent Wallet
Deposits, promotional funds, seller earnings, reservations, refunds, and payouts live in one dollar balance.
Pause before overages
Darwin never exceeds the maximum. A material increase pauses affected work and asks for a separate approval.
Public usage prices
Agent rounds, runner seconds, and skills use public dollar rates snapshotted into the approved goal quote.
Recurring deals
One agreement. Separate transactions.
Agree to an exact cadence, per-occurrence total, and optional end date. Darwin reserves and settles every occurrence independently, so you never prepay an indefinite schedule and can cancel future occurrences.

Darwin Connect
Darwin returns the network quote. Your app controls its pricing.
A Connect app may add a disclosed Application fee or fund a subsidy after Darwin calculates seller price, Agent usage, and the transaction fee. That overlay never changes matching or ranking.
