This topic introduces the Standard Edition and Professional Edition of RDS Copilot, compares their features, and explains the billing model for the Base Package and AI Capacity Packages in the Professional Edition.
Standard Edition and Professional Edition
RDS Copilot is available in two editions:
-
Standard Edition: Supports all features in the RDS Copilot console. Provides AI-driven database diagnostics and query optimization at no cost. Suitable for developers, DBAs, and other technical users who want to improve their productivity.
-
Professional Edition: Builds on the Standard Edition by adding API access (for integration with internal enterprise platforms), batch instance health checks, ecosystem integrations (such as DingTalk and Lark bots), and dedicated technical support. You can add AI Capacity Packages to improve O&M efficiency. Suitable for enterprise-grade intelligent database O&M. When you activate the Professional Edition, a Base Package (which includes baseline task concurrency and API call quota) is purchased by default. You can add AI Capacity Packages on demand to scale capabilities.

Developers, DBAs, and other technical users who want to improve their productivity. |
Intelligent O&M for medium and large enterprises or core business systems, or scenarios where RDS intelligent O&M capabilities need to be integrated into internal enterprise platforms. |
Base Package and AI Capacity Package
When you activate the Professional Edition of RDS Copilot, a Base Package is purchased by default. The Base Package provides baseline task concurrency, intelligent health check capacity, and API call quota. For higher concurrency, faster health checks, or a larger API call quota, add AI Capacity Packages on top of the Base Package. Each additional AI Capacity Package provides approximately: 10 more concurrent tasks, reduced intelligent health check time, and improved slow query optimization efficiency.

Model consumption coefficients
The Professional Edition API supports multiple models, including the Qwen series and embedding/rerank models. Different models consume different amounts of tokens, and the API call quota is deducted based on a consumption coefficient. The coefficient consists of an input token consumption coefficient and an output token consumption coefficient. For example, if the input coefficient of the qwen3.5-plus model is 5.3, each input token deducts 5.3 tokens from the quota. If the output coefficient is 31.8, each output token deducts 31.8 tokens from the quota.
The following table lists the coefficients of commonly used models. For the complete model list and the latest coefficients, see the console.
