Metering and Charging Logic

This section includes specific information about the metering & charging logic for AI units, depending on the used activity, and explains the AI unit cost per page for extractors, OCR engines, classifiers, and other components. More details about AI Units can be found here and details about licensing can be found here.

Note: The charges apply per extracted page and per extraction method, meaning that, for example, both Form Extractor and Machine Learning Extractor are run, then the charges would be 1.2 AI units.

Digitization	AI unit cost per extracted page
UiPath Document OCR * * Requires a valid DU license	0
OCR for Chinese Japanese Korean * * Requires a valid DU license * Runs only on a CPU VM	0
Omnipage OCR	0
Tesseract OCR	0
Microsoft OCR	0
Abbyy OCR * /* Requires external license, consumption varies by provider	0
Microsoft Azure Computer Vision OCR * /* Requires external license, consumption varies by provider	0
Google Cloud Vision OCR * /* Requires external license, consumption varies by provider	0

Classification	AI unit cost per classified page
Keyword Classifier	0
Intelligent Keyword Classifier	Applicable per page range* See below table for more details
Machine Learning Classifier	Applicable per page range* See below table for more details
Generative Classifier	0.2 See below table for more details regarding Generative prelabeling consumption

Generative prelabeling does not consume AI Units when using public endpoints or skills deployed in Automation Cloud™ from Document Manager sessions hosted on Automation Cloud. Generative prelabeling consumes AI Units when calling a public endpoint from a session hosted on Automation Suite, or when calling a skill deployed in Automation Suite from a Document Manager session hosted on Automation Cloud.

The extraction for Keyword Classifier is free, while for Intelligent Keyword Classifier and ML Classifier the following costs are applied:

Document Pages	AI Units Needed
1-25	0
26-50	1
51-75	2
76-100	3
101-125	4
125+	5

Note: Classification charges are capped at maximum 5 units per document.

Extraction	AI unit cost per extracted page
RegEx Extractor	0
Form Extractor	0.2
Intelligent Form Extractor Deprecated: Intelligent Form Extractor has been deprecated. We recommend using the Form Extractor activity.	1
Machine Learning Extractor	1*
Forms AI	1
Generative Extraction	1.2 See below table for more details regarding Generative prelabeling consumption

Generative prelabeling does not consume AI Units when using public endpoints or skills deployed in Automation Cloud™ from Document Manager sessions hosted on Automation Cloud. Generative prelabeling consumes AI Units when calling a public endpoint from a session hosted on Automation Suite, or when calling a skill deployed in Automation Suite from a Document Manager session hosted on Automation Cloud.

Note: The Machine Learning Extractor consumes one AI unit/processed page, even if the extracted information is not to be found on that page.
