# Pricing & Limits

With Kernel, you only pay for what you use and nothing more. You don't pay for idle time thanks to [Standby Mode](/browsers/standby), and you're never charged for proxies. Our goal is to be cost-effective, scalable, and transparent.

## Reserved browsers (browser pools)

With Browser Pools, you pay the standard usage-based price per GB-second while browsers run, plus a small disk space charge when they are idle.

|                                 | Headful     | Headless   |
| ------------------------------- | ----------- | ---------- |
| Disk price per GB/hour          | \$0.001     | \$0.001    |
| Disk allocation per browser     | 4 GB        | 1 GB       |
| Example: 50 browsers idle/month | \$144/month | \$36/month |

> Note: Disk space charges are waived for Enterprise plan customers.
