Publish and Price
How creators set margin, how compute is estimated, and what buyers see at checkout.
Creators pricing and selling workflows.
Overview#
Creators publish a workflow margin between $0.05 and $50.00 per run. Edgaze derives the hosted compute estimate from the workflow graph and maximum allowed input. Buyers see one displayed price: margin plus applicable compute.
Creators preview earnings as 80% of margin, not a share of the displayed price.
- Edgaze reserves the run price from your wallet or bundle
- The workflow runs within your input limits
- On success, you are charged the displayed price
- The creator earns 80% of their margin on that run
On a successful run, the buyer is charged the displayed price and the creator earns 80% of their margin.
Setting your margin#
In the publish flow, set the per-run workflow margin from $0.05 to $50.00. Prompt products use their own legacy listing rules.
Input envelope and compute#
Set the maximum input spec (size, pages, tokens) for the version. Compute is priced at this maximum so the buyer price is honest for the largest allowed input.
The publish UI shows an estimated compute figure at envelope max ("~$X/run compute at max input"). This feeds the buyer displayed price. It is not a per-token invoice.
What buyers and creators see#
The live preview shows:
- Buyers pay: displayed price (margin + compute)
- You earn: 80% of margin, rounded down to the nearest cent
Example: $10 margin and $0.50 compute yields a $10.50 buyer price and $8.00 creator earn per successful run.
Version pricing#
Each published version stores its own margin, compute estimate, and displayed price. Price changes on new versions do not retroactively change what existing buyers pay on older versions.
Failover setting#
Creators may disable model failover on the workflow. When off, a degraded primary model causes the run to fail instead of routing to a more expensive fallback. The buyer is not charged margin on that failure.
Special cases#
- Non-hosted listing: Hosted compute is replaced by the $0.002 Edgaze orchestration price. The provider bills the owner of the connected key. See BYOK.
- Remix workflow: The preview includes the price of the one permitted sealed parent workflow.
- Legacy unlock: Supported older web listings use their purchase-time terms. See Legacy.
What you see in Edgaze#
- Publish modal: margin input, envelope fields, compute estimate, buyer price, creator earn preview
- Product page: single displayed per-run price and envelope copy ("handles up to X")
- Version history: per-version prices in the version selector for buyers
