I want to know how much it cost to run inference for a computer vision model through the roboflow cloud.

In the free plan the user gets `10,000/month Inference credits` and I read in an other thread that each frame of video is uses one credit so let say I am using 25fps video stream using the rtsp url to do the inference  
What is the maths here?

Hi @Mubashir_Waheed - for RTSP streams we recommend using our inference repo and self-hosting on local compute ([docs](https://inference.roboflow.com/quickstart/run_model_on_rtsp_webcam/)).

When you are running on a video stream, we charge per video stream. The Public plan comes with one concurrent stream at a time; for more, reach out to our sales team.
