# Manage Your Seer Spend

[Seer](https://docs.sentry.io/product/ai-in-sentry/seer.md) is only available when added to an existing Team or Business plan. Once Seer has been added, each [active contributor](https://docs.sentry.io/pricing/quotas/manage-seer-budget.md#key-terms) will be charged at $40 per seat. Counts reset at the end of each month. If you are on Legacy Seer Pricing, [read here](https://docs.sentry.io/pricing.md#legacy-seer-pricing) for spend details.

## [Key Terms](https://docs.sentry.io/pricing/quotas/manage-seer-budget.md#key-terms)

* **Seer**: Sentry's AI debugging agent that catches breaking changes before deploy, and debugs and fixes issues in production.

* **Active Contributor**: any user who makes 2 or more PRs on a [Seer-Enabled](https://docs.sentry.io/product/ai-in-sentry/seer.md#getting-started-with-seer) repository. Users who contribute to more than one connected repository will still count as only one seat.

* **Seer-Enabled Repository**: A repository that is connected to Seer and has one or more Seer features enabled.

All members of your repositories, *except* GitHub bots marked as `[bot]`, are counted as active contributors.

## [Tips for Managing Spend](https://docs.sentry.io/pricing/quotas/manage-seer-budget.md#tips-for-managing-spend)

Seer usage is billed separately as its own monthly charge and does not deduct from your pay-as-you-go budget. To avoid unexpected bills, keep an eye on the following:

* Manage Seer-Enabled Repositories: Only active contributors on Seer-Enabled repos get counted towards your Seer invoice. To see which repos are connected to Seer, navigate to your organization's [settings](https://sentry.io/orgredirect/organizations/:orgslug/settings/seer/).

* Monitor Your Usage: Regularly check your connected repos and active contributors to avoid unexpected bills. You can see your active contributors in your organization's [billing overview](https://sentry.io/orgredirect/organizations/:orgslug/settings/billing/overview/?product=seer).

## [Example Scenario](https://docs.sentry.io/pricing/quotas/manage-seer-budget.md#example-scenario)

Let's illustrate how this works:

You have a total of 10 GitHub repositories, 5 of which are connected to Seer. Across the 5 Seer-Enabled repos, there are a total of 10 users who have made 2 or more PRs within the monthly billing period. At the end of the billing period, you will be charged a total of $400 (10 active contributors x $40).

In the next billing period, you continue to have 5 Seer-Enabled repositories but only 3 users made 2 or more PRs. At the end of the monthly billing period, you will be charged a total of $120 (3 active contributors x $40).
