Based on the Cloud Infinite (CI), the Cloud Object Storage (COS) offers users the flexible and powerful image processing function, such as rotation, cropping, format conversion and zoom. It provides not only image slimming solutions such as Guetzli compression, TPG transcoding and HEIF transcoding, but also copyright protection solutions such as image or text watermark, and exclusive blind watermark, which meets the image requirements in various business scenarios. The image processing fees depend on the types of image processing, which include basic image processing, advanced image compression, Guetzli image compression, smart image compression, blind watermark, abnormal image detection and intelligent poster generation. See the details below:
|
Basic image processing | Fees generated in the basic processing of cropping, watermark and information retrieval of images by users when they download images or perform persistent operations. The basic image processing function performs the calculation of data processing capacity based on the size of the original image file. | Monthly settlement | Pay-as-you-go. Resource package: Basic image processing resource package. |
Advanced image compression | Fees generated by image conversion to formats with a high compression ratio such as TPG, AVIF and HEIF. Such fees are charged by the number of use times. |
| Pay-as-you-go. Resource package: Image compression resource package. Deductions of AVIF format are made at a 1:3 ratio. |
Guetzli image compression | Fees generated by Guetzli lossless compression of image quality of JPG images. Such fees are charged by the number of compression times. |
| Pay-as-you-go. Resource package: Image compression resource. package. Deductions are made at a 1:10 ratio. |
Smart image compression | Fees generated by using the smart image compression method for image compression. Such fees are charged by the number of processing times. |
| Pay-as-you-go.
Resource package: Image compression resource package. |
Blind watermark | Fees generated by blind watermark operations performed on images, which include two forms: adding and extracting. Such fees are charged by the number of processing times. |
| Pay-as-you-go. Resource package: Blind watermark resource package. |
Abnormal image detection | Fees generated by the detection of abnormal images, which are charged by the number of processing times. |
| Pay-as-you-go.
|
Intelligent poster generation | Fees generated by using templates to generate a variety of finished posters, which are charged by the number of processing times. |
| Pay-as-you-go. |
Basic image processing and advanced image compression support 3000 QPS by default. If the QPS peak value of your total request is higher than 3000, please contact your business manager or submit a ticket to inquire about issues on enabling higher QPS and billing. Fees for advanced image compression and smart image compression are charged by the actual number of compression.
When you perform compression by processing upon download, each request carrying compression parameters will trigger compression once. Multiple requests for the same image will result in multiple charges.
When you perform compression by processing upon upload or in-cloud data processing, one-time compression will be triggered when the compression parameters are used. Subsequent direct access to the compressed image URL without carrying compression parameters will not incur compression fees.
If you use advanced image compression and basic image processing in one operation request, only the advanced compression fee will be charged.
Fees for Guetzli image compression are charged based on the actual number of compression.
Guetzli compression is an asynchronous compression. There will be 15 days of a caching period after compression by the server. Multiple accesses to the same image during this period will not trigger additional compression, so there are no multiple compression fees. After this cache period passes, repeat access will lead to compression.

Advanced Image Compression
Fees for advanced image compression will be charged with different weight coefficients for different specifications based on your image specifications.
The final billing will be uniformly conducted for advanced image compression. The details can be viewed by logging in to the console and accessing image processing statistics. |
Advanced Image Compression (HEIF/TPG) | Small image ≤ 800 x 600 | 0.015 USD/1,000 times | 0.3 | 0.0045 USD/1,000 times |

Assume that you used AVIF for 800,000 times last month, 600,000 times were for the small images less than 800 x 600 pixels in size, and 200,000 times were for the medium images less than 1920 x 1080 pixels in size.
Since the billing unit for advanced image compression is thousand times, the unit of usage is converted to thousand times for calculation. Hence, there were 600 thousand times for the small images smaller than 800 x 600 pixels in size, and 200 thousand times for the medium images smaller than 1920 x 1080 pixels in size.
Hence, the cost is calculated as: 600 (thousand) x 0.045 (USD/thousand) x 0.1 (coefficient) + 200 (thousand) x 0.045 (USD/thousand) x 0.3 (coefficient) = 5.4 USD.
Billing Example
Requirements
Suppose that you upload a series of images to a bucket, you use the image cropping and advanced image compression functions offered by CI for real-time processing of images and add blind watermark when uploading images.
Based on usage statistics, the total usage reaches 5TB for basic image processing, 10,000 times for advanced image compression and 10,000 times for blind watermark.
Monthly Fees Calculation

Basic image processing fees | 10TB | 0.01 USD/GB/month | No | 0GB | 0 USD |
Advanced image compression fees | No | 0.015 USD/1,000 times | No | 10,000 times | 0.15 USD |
Blind watermark fees | No | 0.15 USD/1,000 operations | No | 10,000 times | 1.5 USD |
Monthly fees | - | - | - | - | 1.65 USD |
Note:
CI does not charge for the traffic generated by uploading images. Real-time processing of images when they are uploaded will not generate traffic charge.
The billing sequence for CI is: resource package > pay-as-you-go. Guetzli compression can be deducted by using the image compression resource package, hence, there are no charges incurred for pay-as-you-go.
Storage fees are charged by COS. Once you've known about the types of image processing fees and the billing item descriptions, you can assess the quantity of resource to be processed according to your own business requirements, and utilize the CI price calculator for calculation. Finally, export the budget list.
