Plandex · FinOps Profile

Plandex Finops

FinOps framework definition for Plandex. Plandex itself is MIT-licensed and free; the hosted Plandex Cloud (now winding down as of 2025-10-03) charged a subscription plus pass-through-with-markup model credits in Integrated Models Mode, and a flat subscription in BYO API Key Mode. The dominant ongoing cost for users running Plandex (cloud or self-hosted) is upstream model-provider consumption (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, Google, Azure, Bedrock, DeepSeek, Perplexity, Relace). This document maps that surface to the FinOps Foundation framework and FOCUS data spec so consuming organizations can build cost visibility, allocation, optimization, and accountability around Plandex.

Plandex Finops is the FinOps profile for Plandex on the APIs.io network, aligned with the FinOps Foundation Framework.

It defines 6 billable meters, billed in USD, on a monthly cycle, and pricing category hybrid.

The profile maps 9 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.
