Access usage dashboard

From Educator Dashboard, go to "Live Sessions" → "Usage & Billing". See your current period usage, remaining minutes, and billing history.
02

Understand participant minutes

Billing is based on participant minutes: number of participants × session duration. A 60-minute session with 10 attendees = 600 participant minutes.
03

View session breakdown

Each educator gets free participant minutes monthly. The usage bar shows how much you've used. Stay within limits for no charges, or upgrade for more capacity.

Manage costs

Tips to optimize: limit session duration, cap attendees for smaller cohorts, use recordings for replay instead of repeat live sessions. Consider subscription plans for heavy usage.
