## Platform plans

The following table shows the features available in UiPath® IXP based on the Platform plan:

| Feature | Feature description | Free | Basic Trial | Standard Trial | Basic | Standard | Enterprise |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Communications data (Communications Mining) | Access to Communications Mining capabilities, except for CMEK. For more details, check Metering and charging logic (Unified Pricing). | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Unstructured and complex documents | Access to the Unstructured and complex documents capability. | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |

:::note
If your license expires, you will be automatically downgraded to the Free plan.
:::

## User licenses

The following table shows which user licenses provide access to IXP:

| Unlicensed | Express | Basic | Plus | Pro |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| No | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |

:::important
To enable the IXP service, Platform Units are required in addition to the Unified Pricing Plan licenses.
:::

:::note
Organization or tenant admins who are unlicensed or have an Autopilot Express license can access admin-specific pages or perform admin-specific actions in IXP only. Unlicensed non-admin users will be prevented from accessing the IXP service.

## Metering and charging logic

### Measuring consumption

The UiPath® IXP utilization is measured based on the consumption rate of units.

### Consuming units

In IXP, units are consumed as follows:

* **Communications Mining:** 0.2 Platform Units per message uploaded, modified, or predicted.
* **Unstructured and complex documents:** IXP charges per page at runtime for extraction, with no charge at design time. Digitization is free.

:::note
As IXP models continuously retrain, and predictions automatically update, you are not charged on a per-prediction basis, but per message uploaded for Communications Mining, and per page processed at runtime for Unstructured and complex documents.
:::

For Unstructured and complex documents, extraction is charged per page as follows:

| Operation | Platform Units per page |
| --- | --- |
| Extraction (with prior classification) | 0.16 |
| Extraction (without prior classification) | 0.2 |

You never pay more than **0.2 Platform Units** per page for extraction, and the rate is the same regardless of which extractor you use.

Generative Validation consumes an additional 0.2 Platform Units per page.

:::note
If multiple extractors are applied to the same page, each extraction is counted separately and charged at 0.16 Platform Units, or 0.2 Platform Units without prior classification.
:::

### Using Document Understanding classification with IXP extraction

Document Understanding and IXP licenses can be used together. You can classify a document with a Document Understanding modern project classifier and then extract data with an IXP model, with no additional Platform Unit cost per page.

:::tip
The page is charged for classification (0.04 Platform Units) and extraction with prior classification (0.16 Platform Units), with a total of **0.2 Platform Units per page**.
:::

For more details on Document Understanding licensing, refer to [Metering and charging logic (Unified Pricing)](https://docs.uipath.com/document-understanding/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/metering-and-charging-logic-unified-pricing).

### Platform Units consumption

This section outlines how metering and charging for Platform Units are determined based on the type of operation you perform:

:::important
The units in this table reflect the default standard rates and serve as a reference for estimating consumption before purchase.

      Product
      Capability
      Charge details
      Activity or model
      Platform Units consumed

      0.16
    
    
      Extraction (without prior classification)
      0.2
    
  

## Metering scenarios

This section describes what happens when different projects are used together on the same document.

The following scenarios provide an example of the consumed units based only on the number of pages you extract.

### Scenario 1

An insurance company processes incoming claim-related correspondence from multiple sources. The batch contains only unstructured documents such as adjuster reports, policyholder letters, and legal notices.

  ![An illustration of the UiPath Robot flow consisting of getting the unstructured documents from the inbox, and continuing with classification, extraction, and validation.](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/ixp/ixp-an-illustration-of-the-uipath-robot-flow-consisting-of-getting-the-unstructured-documents-from-the-inbox-and-continuing-with-classification-extraction-4af2bc97.webp)

Considering you process a 50-page document, the consumption is as shown in the table that follows.

:::important
The units in the following tables reflect the default standard rates and serve as a reference for estimating consumption before purchase.
:::

  
    
      Document type
      Step
      Platform Units consumed (per page)
      Platform Units consumed
    
  
  
    
      Unstructured document
      Classification (Generative classifier or Modern classifier)
      0.04
      2
    
    
      Extraction (IXP Unstructured and complex documents)
      0.16
      8
    

  

In this case, the total amount of consumed Platform Units is 10.

### Scenario 2

Insurance documents, such as doctor’s letters, invoices, and so on. Each document must be classified first, then passed to specific extraction methods. There is no need to split the documents.

  ![An illustration of the UiPath Robot flow consisting of getting the unstructured documents from the inbox, and continuing with classification, extraction using Generative extraction or the Modern extractor, and validation.](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/ixp/ixp-an-illustration-of-the-uipath-robot-flow-consisting-of-getting-the-unstructured-documents-from-the-inbox-abfa4fd0.webp)

A doctor’s letter is 40 pages per document and an invoice is 10 pages per document.

The following table provides an example of the consumed units based on the number of pages you classify, and extract using IXP:

  <colgroup>
    <col/>
    <col/>
    <col/>
    <col/>
  </colgroup>
  
    
      Document type
      Step
      Platform Units consumed (per page)
      Platform Units consumed
    
  
  
    
      Doctor's letter
      Classification (Generative classifier or Modern classifier)
      0.04
      1.6
    
    
      Extraction (IXP Unstructured &amp; complex documents &ndash; doctor's letter)
      0.16
      6.4
    
    
      Invoice
      Classification (Generative classifier or Modern classifier)
      0.04
      0.4
    
    
      Extraction (IXP Modern extractor - invoices)
      0.16
      1.6
    
  

In this case, the total amount of consumed Platform Units is 10.

### Common scenarios for a mixed project type

The common scenarios are:

* When you use classification and an IXP unstructured project.
* When you use multiple extractors.
* When you use classification and multiple extractors.

The following sections describe these scenarios.

#### Classification and an IXP unstructured project

The following table provides an example of the consumed units when using classification and an IXP unstructured project:

| Input | Classification | Extraction | Extraction | Platform Units consumed |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 50-page document | Modern | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | N\A | 10 |
| 50-page document | Gen Class | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | N\A | 10 |

#### Multiple extractors

The following table provides an example of the consumed units when using multiple extractors:

| Input | Classification | Extraction | Extraction | Platform Units consumed |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 50-page document | N\A | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | Modern | 20 |
| 50-page document | N\A | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | Classic project | 20 |
| 50-page document | N\A | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | 20 |

:::note
Using a classic classifier, such as the Intelligent Keyword Classifier (IKC), does not qualify subsequent extractions for the reduced 0.16 rate.
:::

#### Classification and multiple extractors

The following table provides an example of the consumed units when using classification and multiple extractors:

| Input | Classification | Extraction | Extraction | Platform Units consumed |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 50-page document | Modern | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | Modern | 18 |
| 50-page document | Gen Class | IXP Unstructured and complex documents | Classic project | 20 |
| 50-page document | IKC | IXP Unstructured and complex documents (30 pages) | Modern project (20 pages) | 10.2 |
