Replicate - Image Link Missing and getting charged $0.11 instead of $0.05 which is the correct amount per image. This happened a lot yesterday around 33% of time the link to image was missed once created and I was charged 6 cents over what Pickaxe has listed at 5 cents.

Hi @rainmaker ,

Thank you for reaching out.

Could you please share the session IDs for the affected runs so we can take a closer look? That will help us investigate both the missing image link issue and the charge discrepancy more closely.

Here is a guide on how to find the session ID if needed:

> If something feels off with a Pickaxe, the fastest way we can help is by looking at the exact conversation session where it happened. That’s where the Session ID comes in. Think of the Session ID as a precise bookmark. It lets our support and engineering teams jump straight to the specific message, model run, and settings involved. No guesswork. No back and forth. Much faster fixes. Where to find the Session ID Go to your Studio Click Users in the left sidebar Open th…

I just sent all the session IDs via email. Most of the time images are missing in them or just text is in place of an image.

Hi @rainmaker ,

Thank you for your patience.

I wanted to share an update that the issue with the Replicate image action output not rendering in the Builder has now been fixed. I tested it using your Pickaxe, and it is now working properly.  
Please let us know if you notice any other issues.

Thanks Danny! Any word on the pricing why it was so high when it is supposed to be $0.05 an image?

Hi @rainmaker ,

The $0.05 figure refers to the Replicate image action itself. The higher amount you may see in Message Insights can reflect the total cost of the interaction, not just the standalone image action call. That total can include things like the model processing your prompt, reading the system instructions, triggering the action, generating the final response, and any knowledge‑base lookups involved. For that reason, the total interaction cost can appear higher than the per-image action price.
