# Guides

## Docs

- [Recipes for AI billing models](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/recipes.md): Plans, pools, windows and limits put together for the models AI products use.
- [Usage windows](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/usage-windows.md): Refill credits on a schedule, and cap how fast they can be used.
- [Pools](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/pools.md): Keep included, purchased and promotional credits apart, and decide which is spent first.
- [Credit expiry and breakage](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/credit-expiry.md): Let credits expire, warn customers first, and report what lapsed.
- [Spend limits](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/spend-limits.md): Cap what a customer, team, member or agent can spend in a period, and let customers set their own.
- [Members, teams and agents](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/members-teams-agents.md): Attribute usage to the person, team or agent behind it, and cap each one.
- [Auto top-up and alerts](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/auto-top-up-and-alerts.md): Buy credits automatically when a pool runs low, and tell people at the thresholds they chose.
- [Usage meters](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/usage-summary.md): Show customers what they have used, what is left and when it resets.
- [Customer view](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/customer-view.md): A hosted page where your customers see their usage and manage their own limits.
- [Catalog, cost models and overrides](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/cost-catalog-and-models.md): Pick the models you pay for from the provider price catalog, layer your own rates on top, and add models the catalog lacks.
- [Price rules and margin guardrails](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/price-rules-and-guardrails.md): Work out a usage price from cost, and warn or stop work that would sell below a margin floor.
- [Cost attribution and margin](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/cost-attribution-and-margin.md): Record what each model call costs with trace() and track(), read the margin per run, and pick an integration pattern.
- [Provider price changes and simulation](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/price-changes-and-simulation.md): Decide whether your prices follow a provider's new price, and replay recorded usage against any change before you apply it.
- [Reports and charts](https://docs.runledger.co/guides/reports.md): Read totals, trends and rankings from the API, the same figures the dashboard charts use.
