What to watch
- Standard is usage-based: the $50 is a minimum, and real cost depends on reads, writes, storage and egress.
- Pinecone Assistant adds usage fees for file ingestion, storage and chat tokens on paid plans.
- Pinecone says a one-time Standard trial gives $300 in credits over 21 days.
- Check pinecone.io/pricing before buying.
