FAQs

What are tokens, and how are they used in the Passio Hub plans?

Tokens are used to quantify the usage of Passio services. Each action, such as an API request, Vision AI request, Text AI request, or Chat Message request, consumes a specific number of tokens. The monthly plans include a set number of tokens, and users can purchase additional tokens if they exceed their monthly limit.
What happens if I exceed the monthly token limit included in my plan?

If you exceed the monthly token limit included in your plan, our billing portal allows you to configure an automatic refill option. By default, this setting is enabled on your account. When enabled, if you make a request to the API and dont have enough tokens, you will automatically be billed at a rate of $2.50 per million tokens to top up the number of tokens you have set.
Can I upgrade or downgrade my subscription plan at any time?

Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your subscription plan at any time to better suit your usage needs. This flexibility allows you to adjust your plan based on changes in your application's user base or feature set.
What is the difference between on-device and cloud-side recognition?

On-device recognition is faster and processes photos on the device itself, meaning the photos are not sent to the cloud. It costs fewer tokens, but only allows you to log a single ingredient at a time, and requires multiple uses to log a meal. Cloud-side recognition, which uses the Nutrition AI Advisor API, has more tokens per call, but will recognize everything in the image and return all foods, requiring only one main scan to log the meal. It is more powerful but has some latency due to the images being processed in the cloud.
What measures enable people to exercise their data privacy rights (information, access, erasure, modification, etc.)?

Our standard setup does not store data that can identify the user in any way. Consumers of our SDK might store that data, but Passio does not. The SDK might cache the license key for faster authentication, everything else is just used for the nutritional data. The only component that might be affected is the personalization API we are adding in our 3rd generation SDK that would allow customers to upload end-user profile data (e.g., weight, height, diet, etc.) to personalize responses from the Nutrition AI Advisor. We do not store this data, but the data is transitioned to our LLM that could be a third party LLM such as GPT. As a technology provider we rely on and require our customers to ensure no personal data is transferred to Passio.
