AI Units

AI Units is the measure used to license AI products. AI units are charged based on consumption when the models are bringing value to you.

For more information, check the sections below:

  • Metering and charging logic
  • License tracking

Metering and charging logic

This page includes specific information regarding to AI units depending on the used activity, covering the cost for every AI product. Two variables are considered when computing AI units:
  • Input size
  • Model used
Note: The formula to calculate the consumption is as follows: input size x unit cost of the model.
For example, the consumption for UiPath Custom Named Entity Recognition model with input size 5000 characters is as follows:
  • 5000 characters = 3 units
  • Consumption: 3 units x 0.5 (unit cost) = 1.5 AI Units

Note: Except for Task Mining, running a pipeline or deploying an ML Skill does not consume AI units and does not require additional licenses.

License tracking

AI units are currently tracked under Document Understanding Pages bundles for all scenarios (Automation Suite and standalone environment, both offline or online).

Note: Legacy licenses, such as AI Robots, GPU, or Task Mining will still be displayed, although they are not consumed.
