IBM Cloud account owners can choose between the Lite (unpaid) and Professional (paid) plan.
Under the Professional plan, you can provision multiple watsonx.ai Studio instances in an IBM Cloud account. The Professional plan allows unlimited users and charges for compute usage which is measured in capacity unit hours (CUH). The Professional
plan is the only paid plan option.
Under the Lite plan, you can provision one watsonx.ai Studio instance per IBM Cloud account. The Lite plan allows only one user and limits the CUH to 10 hours per month. Collaborators in your projects must have their own watsonx.ai Studio Lite
plans.
Both watsonx.ai Studio plans contain these features without additional services:
Environments with Decision Optimization libraries to model and solve decision optimization problems that exceed the complexity that is supported by the Community Edition of the libraries in the other
default Python environments.
The Professional plan charges for compute usage consumed per month. Compute usage is measured in capacity unit hours (CUH). For details on computing resource allocation and consumption, see Runtime usage.
