SkyDeck offers a range of flexible and scalable pricing plans that are tailored to meet your specific requirements. You can find the available plans and offers here: https://asteria.co.in/skydeck-pricing.
To enforce these plans, your SkyDeck account is administered by a License. This License is specific to the plan that you have purchased and it determines the extent to which you can utilize the features and capabilities offered by SkyDeck.
The License tab in the Console module displays detailed information about your organisation’s current license and how it is being utilized.

Understanding Licenses
In this section, you will look at:
Licensed Entities
Your organization's license determines the limits for creating certain types of entities or running specific tasks within our system. Here’s how it works:
License Limits
Each type of entity or task has a set limit defined by your license. For example, your license might specify:
The maximum number of Drones you can add to the Fleets Module
Whether livestreaming is allowed
The number of simultaneous livestreams you can conduct
The total hours of livestreams you can perform per month
Data Storage capacity
Compute tokens available per month
The total number of users that can be onboarded
Reaching the Limit
Once the limit for a particular type of entity or task is reached, no new entities of that type can be created. For example, if your license allows for a maximum of 10 Users, you won’t be able to add an 11th User unless you:
Remove existing Users to free up space
Upgrade your license through an add-on purchase
30-Day Reset Cycle
Our licensing system operates on a 30-day reset cycle. This cycles starts when you subscription begins and at the end of each cycle, certain limitations are reset. This means that if your license allows 3 hours of livestreams per month, you'll have 3 hours available at the start of each cycle. Note that the balances do not carry over between 2 cycles.
Following entities reset at the start of each cycles:
Total Hours of livestreams per Month
Total Compute tokens available for use per Month

License Expiry
SkyDeck will attempt to auto-renew once your current subscription expires. Incase the auto-renewal payment is unsuccessful, your account license will license expires. Upon expiry, the account will be in a locked mode, only users with admin and the project manager roles will have a 30-day window (or as per the data retention agreement with the organisation) with download and read-only access to the data stored in SkyDeck. During this period, you can download all necessary data or renew its subscription for complete access to the platform.
If the license is not renewed within the initial 30-day period, the admin and the project manager will lose access to all the data and all the data is purged.
Once the data is purged, any organization-related data will be deleted from the Skydeck system including user accounts and these users will not be able to login to Skydeck any longer.
Understanding Tokens
In this section, you will look at:
Tokens
Tokens are the digital currency for running compute-heavy tasks on SkyDeck. As you utilize SkyDeck's cloud-based processing resources, you consume tokens. The more compute-intensive the task, the more tokens it consumes.
The SkyDeck license allows you to consume a specific number of tokens for each 30-day period.
These tokens refresh monthly and cannot be carried forward.
Before you can proceed with tasks that consume tokens, SkyDeck displays a pop-up informing you of the total available tokens for your current monthly cycle, quantity, pricing and the number of tokens required to run the task.
Token Quotation
To proceed further you must ACCEPT this quotation. If sufficient tokens are not available, the task cannot be initiated. You may either wait for the 30-day period to refresh or contact the Asteria Sales team to purchase more tokens.
To know more about token and understand how the calculation is done for different tasks, click Understanding Token Calculation.

To see how the tokens are used, click Token Utilization History. The token utilisation history for the last 30 days is displayed by default. You can select the time period for which you want to view the token usage history.
