DeveloperAnthropic
Computer Use is billed through Anthropic's standard model/tool usage rather than as a standalone subscription. Costs depend on the Claude model, input/output tokens, screenshots and tool execution.

DeveloperMultiOn AI
MultiOn's current first-party surfaces document an active Agent API V1 Beta, SDKs and API/extension services, but do not publish a stable public pricing table. Lorezi therefore leaves numeric pricing unstamped.
