Fee Payment

Balance Requirement:

Ensure you have at least $0.05 USDC in your Hyperliquid perp balance to use Advanced models. If your balance is insufficient, the request will fail.

Fee Transfer:

Fees are transferred to B3X's AI service fee recipient address using Hyperliquid's internal transfer function before processing your request.

Fee History:

View your AI model fee history in your account to track usage and spending on Advanced models.

Model Comparison

Performance:

Advanced models provide superior reasoning, better context understanding, and more accurate analysis compared to Flash models.

Speed:

Flash models respond faster (typically under 2 seconds), while Advanced models take longer (typically 3-5 seconds) due to deeper reasoning.

Cost vs Value:

For critical trading decisions involving significant capital, the $0.05 fee for Advanced models is minimal compared to potential trading gains from better analysis.

Important Notes

Model Availability:

Both Flash and Advanced models are available 24/7. You can switch between them at any time during a conversation.

Failed Requests:

If a request fails (e.g., API error, timeout), the fee is not charged. Fees are only charged for successfully processed requests.

Balance Monitoring:

Monitor your Hyperliquid perp balance to ensure you have sufficient funds for Advanced model usage. Low balance may interrupt your ability to use Advanced models.

No Subscription:

There are no monthly subscriptions or minimum usage requirements. You only pay for what you use with Advanced models.
