PlanYield, 'Kiro pricing and limits: credits by plan', updated 31 Oct 2026, https://planyield.dev/limits/kiro/
Key numbers
- Kiro Free is $0: 50 credits a month, Auto, Claude Sonnet 4.5 and open-weight models. It is also rate-limited with a weekly quota of unpublished size, and add-on credits cannot be bought (kiro.dev, checked 31 Oct 2026).
- Credits a month: Pro 1,000 ($20), Pro+ 2,000 ($40), Pro Max 5,000 ($100), Power 10,000 ($200). Kiro’s pricing page lists them per user per month.
- PlanYield arithmetic on those prices: every paid plan works out at $20 per 1,000 credits ($0.02 a credit). Add-on credits are $0.04 each.
- Model multipliers on the Pro row, against Auto at 1.0x: Claude Opus 5.5 2.0x, Claude Sonnet 5.5 1.3x, GPT-5.6 Sol 4.4x, Terra 2.2x and Luna 0.6x (kiro.dev/docs/models).
- Add-on credits: $0.04 each, in packs from $5 (125 credits) to $100, up to 5 packs. They are used after plan credits and expire 12 months after purchase. Since 1 Jul 2026 they replace month-end overage on individual plans; Enterprise keeps opt-in overage at $0.04 a credit.

The docs table still marks Claude Sonnet 4.0 as free, but the same docs give it an end of life of 14 Oct 2026, so it is left out. |

When Kiro credits reset
Kiro’s pricing FAQ, checked 31 Oct 2026: “Usage limits reset at the start of each billing month. Unused credits do not roll over.” Add-on credits are separate: unused add-on credits roll over month to month until they are used or reach their 12-month expiry, and the earliest-expiring pack is used first (kiro.dev/docs/billing/add-on-credits). On Free, once the credits run out you wait for next month’s reset.
Coming up
Coming up, : From 1 Nov 2026, a first-time upgrade to Kiro Pro makes the rest of that month free, plus 500 trial credits that expire after 12 months (used after plan credits). Plan fees and credits are prorated to the second. Starting on Pro+, Pro Max or Power pays the difference over prorated Pro. It replaces the $20 discount; upgrades before 1 Nov keep it.

FAQ
Do unused Kiro credits roll over?
Plan credits do not: Kiro says usage limits reset at the start of each billing month and unused credits do not roll over. Add-on credits do roll over month to month until they are used or expire 12 months after purchase.
How much does an extra Kiro credit cost?
$0.04 on every paid plan, bought as prepaid add-on packs from $5 (125 credits) to $100, up to 5 packs. Free cannot buy add-on credits. Enterprise teams can opt in to month-end overage at $0.04 a credit instead.
Which Kiro plan is the best value per credit?
By the published prices and credit counts, every paid plan works out at $20 per 1,000 credits ($0.02 a credit); add-on credits are $0.04. That is PlanYield arithmetic, not a Kiro figure, and it says nothing about how long the credits last in real use.
What is changing on Kiro soon?
From 1 Nov 2026, a first-time upgrade to Kiro Pro makes the rest of that month free, plus 500 trial credits that expire after 12 months (used after plan credits). Plan fees and credits are prorated to the second. Starting on Pro+, Pro Max or Power pays the difference over prorated Pro. It replaces the $20 discount; upgrades before 1 Nov keep it.
Are community usage numbers included for Kiro plans?
Not yet. As of 31 Oct 2026, no Kiro plan has 5 moderated usage reports, so the page shows the published limits only.
