# Costs of the seven regional collections

Updated order: **28 regions × 7 collections = 196 new works**. Together with the four previous regions — **224 main designs**. Two additional Guangdong (GD10 and GD15) are not included in the 224 tea.travel works and are available only in the general tea.equipment catalog.

| Item | Actually, USD |
|---|---:|
| Previous pilot C1–C6, 64 challenge with rejected attempts | 13.3114188 |
| Previous four C7, 8 challenges with corrections | 1.35062 |
| New batch of 196 works: 375 submitted requests | 48.827324 |
| **Confirmed sum of these stages** | **63.4893628** |

For 38 requests the price is not yet confirmed; unknown prices are not considered free. For the new batch of completed current generations: 196/196. Actual expenses include rejected variants and retries, each ID counted once. Historical first Guangdong experiments and earlier non-regional series are not included in this estimate.

## Initial planned assessment

The planned rate of $0.25 per request gives **$49** for 196 primary generations; a reserve of up to 98 retries is **$24.50**. The full estimate for the new stage with such a reserve is **$73.50**, and together with the indicated previous stages — **$88.16**. This is a forecast, not a provider tariff: the actual price is reported by the API. The reserve is not spent automatically. Current unfinished generations: 0. The actual amount above accounts for all saved attempts; the initial reserve is not an expense report.

The cost includes only the generation of AtlasCloud. Codex subscription, mug production, industrial color proofing, delivery, taxes and hosting are not included. Personal financial answers, technical URLs and API identifiers are not published.

## Execution

Research, prompt authorship, generation and verification were carried out in parallel batches. All 196 of new works are accepted; publication is based on reviewing specific files and fixing hashes, not on a single fact of a successful API response. This is a description of the completed process and current state, not a promise of autonomous background work after the dialogue ends.
