# Till

> Scoped API keys with built-in limits for AI agents and automated workloads.

Till is a hosted, multi-tenant control layer operated by DBH Ventures. It gives each AI agent or automation a disposable Till key with a required request ceiling and optional token, estimated-spend, expiration, and IP controls. Till is currently available through a controlled beta with manual onboarding.

## Who Till is for
- Developers and small technical teams running AI agents, automations, experiments, contractors, demos, or trials.
- Teams that want to reduce routine sharing of broad AI-provider credentials.
- Operators that need one control surface for bounded access across multiple AI providers.

## Product facts
- Every scoped Till key requires an activation ceiling.
- Optional controls include token budget, estimated-spend budget, expiration time, and IP/CIDR allowlist.
- A key can be revoked immediately. It remains a sensitive bearer secret.
- Automatic keys route among the provider connections configured for the tenant, using request route, model, or account-default signals.
- Till supports 12 providers: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, OpenRouter, Mistral, Groq, Together AI, Fireworks AI, Perplexity, DeepSeek, xAI, and Cohere.
- Provider connections are encrypted at rest. The proxy must decrypt the selected credential in service memory to forward a request; Till is not zero knowledge.
- Token and spend capacity are conservatively reserved before eligible generation requests and settled to provider-reported usage.
- Spend-limited requests require a model in Till's pricing table. Estimated Till spend may differ from the provider invoice.
- Capacity, warnings, provider context, and request correlation are available through response headers and non-consuming validation.

## Access and billing
- Public anonymous signup is disabled during the controlled beta.
- New accounts are approved and provisioned manually through the beta-access path on the homepage.
- Existing authenticated customers manage billing through the Till dashboard.
- Current controlled-beta platform prices for new subscriptions are Free $0, Pro $59/month, and Scale $249/month.
- Eligible paid beta subscriptions retain their existing founding price under the published price-protection policy.
- Till subscriptions cover the hosted control layer. AI-provider usage is billed separately through the customer's provider accounts.

## Important boundaries
Till is not a zero-knowledge system, prompt firewall, general secrets manager, provider account boundary, compliance certification, or replacement for provider billing controls. It does not currently promise high availability, multi-region failover, a complete audit log, guaranteed uptime, or service credits.
