Gumloop moves to pass-through pricing plus an 8% fee

What changed

Gumloop announced a new pricing model. It passes tokens through at cost, passes compute through at cost, and adds a base 8% orchestration fee on top. The post is addressed to Gumloop customers.

Event date

The Gumloop blog post "A simple, transparent pricing model" is dated August 5, 2026.

Details as the source states them

The post lists three changes:

• Gumloop passes through tokens at cost.
• Gumloop passes through compute at cost.
• Gumloop charges a base 8% orchestration fee on top of these costs.

Gumloop says that for every task an agent automates, you will see a clearer breakdown of the cost. The breakdown covers the compute used to run the agent, the inference and the tools called, plus Gumloop's orchestration fee for each task. The post directs readers to the pricing page for exact details.

How the documentation describes it now

The Gumloop credits documentation, read on 2026-10-03, states that 1 credit equals $0.005. For agent chats it lists four billed components: chat and reasoning at the model's cost, tool calls at 1 credit per successful connector call plus the tool's own charge, compute at 5 credits per session-minute with a 1-credit minimum per response, and an orchestration fee of 8% of the other three. It lists Pro at $37/month with 20,000 credits per month and says credits do not roll over month to month, except on Enterprise plans. It also says Pro overage is capped by default at 1,000,000 overage credits per billing period ($5,000).

What this does not say

• The blog post does not state a date when the model applies to existing accounts.
• It does not list the previous pricing, so Anavem makes no claim about what changed in your bill.
• The post also contains Gumloop's predictions about the industry. Those are opinion and are not covered here.

What to check

Run a typical agent and read its cost breakdown. Compare token cost, compute and the 8% fee against your Pro credits or your Enterprise terms.
