docs(pricing-may-2026): drop service-account framing from FAQs, clarify Free plan platform-credits billing
Two changes to pricing-faqs.mdx:
1. Rewrite the 'How are service account / team-scoped API key requests
billed on self-serve plans?' FAQ to drop the 'service account',
'agent identity', and 'task billing principal' terminology. New
heading reads 'How are cloud agent runs on team plans billed when
no individual user triggered them?'. Body is plain-language: cloud
agent runs not initiated by a specific team member are billed to
the team owner on self-serve plans, with the existing waterfall and
auto-reload behavior preserved.
2. Clarify the platform-credits preview FAQ to call out that Free
plan is unchanged. The preview period and July 1 cutover are
self-serve paid plan transitions; Free plan cloud agent runs
already consume from your plan allowance and don't change on
July 1. Tightens the FAQ to say 'self-serve paid plans (Build,\n Max, Business)' instead of 'self-serve customers' so the scope is\n unambiguous, and adds an explicit 'Free plan' callout next to the\n Enterprise callout.

Some AI requests on Warp can't be linked to an individual user — for example, requests made with a team-scoped API key, a scheduled agent, or an agent identity. These requests have no individual *task billing principal*. On self-serve plans (Build, Max, Business), Warp bills these requests against the **team owner**, while attribution stays on the service account.

When auto-reload is **off**, the service account is blocked once both buckets are depleted. When auto-reload is **on**, service-account usage can trigger auto-reload on the owner's pool subject to the team-wide spend cap; further service-account requests then deplete that reloaded balance until the cap is reached.

This waterfall keeps usage attributable to the service account in audit logs and usage breakdowns, while making billing predictable for the team owner.

Enterprise plans support team-scoped credit pools, so service-account and scheduled-agent traffic draws from the team pool rather than an individual admin. When the team pool is depleted, traffic falls to pay-as-you-go (PAYG) if enabled in the contract; otherwise it's blocked. See [enterprise billing](/enterprise/support-and-resources/billing/).
