Pricing

Railway uses a transparent pricing model: you pay a base subscription fee plus the resources you actually consume.

How it works

Railway's pricing has two components:

ComponentDescription
SubscriptionA flat monthly fee based on your plan tier
Resource UsagePay only for the CPU, memory, storage, and egress you actually use

Your subscription fee goes toward your resource usage - if you're on the Hobby plan at $5/month and use $3 in resources, you just pay the $5 subscription. If you use $8 in resources, you pay $8 total.

Plans at a glance

PlanPriceBest For
Free$0/moExperimentation with $1 of free resources
Hobby$5/moPersonal projects and side hustles
Pro$20/moProduction apps and teams
EnterpriseCustomCompliance, SLAs, and dedicated support

All paid plans include generous resource allowances, with the subscription fee counting toward your usage.

Resource pricing

ResourcePrice
RAM$10 / GB / month
CPU$20 / vCPU / month
Network Egress$0.05 / GB
Volume Storage$0.15 / GB / month

You're billed by the minute for compute resources, so you only pay for what you use.

Railway Agent

The Railway Agent is billed separately, based on the LLM tokens it uses on your behalf.

Railway passes through the exact cost of the underlying models with no markup. Pricing is based on input and output tokens, priced per the model used for each step:

ModelUsed for
Claude Opus 4.6Complex reasoning, multi-step diagnosis, code changes
Claude Sonnet 4.6Most general agent tasks
Claude Haiku 4.5Lightweight lookups and quick actions

The agent routes each request to the smallest model that can handle it, so costs stay proportional to the difficulty of the task. Total agent usage appears as a separate line item on your invoice.

Agent usage draws from the same included credit as the rest of your plan. The $5 on Hobby and $20 on Pro that already covers your compute also covers your agent usage. You're only charged beyond that once your combined compute and agent spend exceeds what your subscription includes.

Per-token rates for each model are published on Anthropic's pricing page: anthropic.com/pricing.
