# What is a Klipy token?

> A token is Klipy's unit of metering: one delivered result or one unit of real cost. One accepted suggestion is one token; an hour of transcription is ten.

A token is Klipy's unit of metering. **One token pays for one piece of work Klipy delivers on its own, or one unit of something with real cost behind it.** You spend a token only at the moment you approve, accept, or trigger that work — never while Klipy is generating a draft, thinking through a plan, or waiting for you to decide.

<Note>
  No create-vs-update distinction, no per-click metering. A charge lands once, at the moment you say yes.

## From token to result

Each token maps to something concrete you can picture:

| Result                                                         | Tokens    |
| -------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- |
| You accept a CRM suggestion (a proposed deal, todo, or update) | 1         |
| You approve and send a follow-up or outreach draft             | 2         |
| Klipy's notetaker records and transcribes a meeting            | 10 / hour |
| A company gets enriched with firmographic data                 | 0.5       |
| An autonomous delegation run completes                         | 1         |

A delegation run stays at 1 token no matter how much it does inside that run. If an overnight cleanup updates five CRM records, that's still one token — the writes are absorbed into the flat per-run charge, not billed separately.

## What never costs a token

* Klipy generating, drafting, or previewing anything — a suggestion, a message, a delegation plan
* You rejecting a suggestion, or letting one expire unused
* Any CRM write you make yourself: creating or updating contacts, companies, deals, todos, notes, or stage changes
* Composing or rewriting a message yourself with AI's help, then sending it
* A sandbox or preview delegation run, or a run that fails

The rule underneath all of this: **a charge lands only at a consent moment, at a price you could see before you gave it.** Klipy is never billed for its own thinking, and never billed for your labor.
