Hi, For free plan 10,000 hosted inference every month. How this will be calculated. I am using hosted inference , i am detecting person , every time it detect a person, the api call will happen. This is how it is calculated? This is from roboflow Each API call to our [hosted inference endpoint](https://docs.roboflow.com/deploy/hosted-api/object-detection) counts as one Inference, no matter how many classes (if any) were detected. ---

Hello - each API call counts as 1 inference. If you make an API call, and there is no person detected, that is 1 inference. The number of detections in a single API call does not matter. ---
