Usage

https://app.groundcover.com/settings/billing/usage

The Usage tab shows how many nodes you're monitoring and helps you understand your billing costs.

What Gets Counted

groundcover billing is based on the average number of Kubernetes nodes or Standalone Hosts monitored by the groundcover sensors. The system tracks:

• Node count over custom time ranges (24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days)

• Average node count for the selected period

• Monthly average node count for the past 6 calendar months

Viewing Usage

Node Count Over Time Card

Shows two components:

1. A large card displaying the average node count for your selected time range

2. A line chart showing node count trends over time

You can select different time ranges:

• 24 hours

• 7 days

• 30 days

• 90 days

Average Node Count - Recent Calendar Months

A bar chart showing the average node count for each of the past 6 calendar months. Each bar represents the monthly average, calculated by taking the average of all node count measurements throughout that month.

Filtering by Cluster

Use the cluster dropdown to filter usage data:

• Select "All Clusters" to see workspace-wide usage

• Select specific clusters to see usage for only those clusters

• Select multiple clusters to see combined usage

The system remembers your cluster selection as you switch between time ranges.
