## July 8, 2026

### AI Unit pricing update

AI Unit consumption for Document Understanding is now charged per operation, instead of a flat rate per page. Digitization is free, classification and extraction are charged individually, and the total consumption is 1 AI Unit per page. Document Understanding and Intelligent Xtraction and Processing (IXP) licenses can be used together, with no additional cost per page. The same per-operation charging applies to Platform Units.
