Stubbucks

Credits system used within the Stubber Platform

# Basic Principle

When actions run in Stubber, they execute tasks and may send notifications, both of which can incur a cost.
All costs are denominated in Stubbucks, represented by the '⛀' symbol.

Stubbucks are credits used to pay for:

• Task execution
• Notifications

You load Stubbucks into your account, and as actions run, costs are deducted automatically.

# Cost

⛀ 1 Stubbuck = $0.10 USD

The easiest way to purchase Stubbucks is with a credit card via the Console.

# Usage (Per Stub)

Each stub has its own Billing tab where you can view cost information.

To see the Stubbucks used on a stub:

1. Open the stub
2. Navigate to the Billing tab

Here you can see:

• The total cost of that specific stub
• A detailed breakdown of all cost components (e.g. tasks, notifications, AI usage)

This allows you to clearly understand where cost is being incurred on a per-stub basis.

# Usage (Console)

You can also monitor Stubbucks usage across your entire organisation in the Console.

Navigate to: Console → Usage

Here you can see:

• Balance: Your remaining Stubbucks
• Total Usage: Stubbucks used over the selected period
• Daily Average: Average daily consumption

The Usage Overview chart provides:

• Daily usage trends
• Ability to switch between daily and cumulative views
• Date range filtering

You can also:

• Toggle between Stubbucks and USD view
• Download usage data as a CSV for reporting and analysis

This view is useful for monitoring overall spend, identifying spikes in usage, and managing cost at scale.

# Template Usage

You can analyse cost at a template level in the Console.

Navigate to: Console → Usage

The Template Usage section provides a breakdown of cost by template, including:

• Template Name: The process or flow being executed
• Number of Stubs: How many times the template has been used
• Average Stubbucks per Stub: The average cost per execution
• Total Stubbucks: The total cost across all executions

This allows you to:

• Identify which processes are driving the most cost
• Compare efficiency between different templates
• Understand average cost per interaction without manual calculation

This view provides a reliable, real-time way to monitor and optimise the cost of your implementations.
