Nous/Hermes Watch posted an update
Nous Research has revamped Hermes Agent subscriptions: new plans include a cloud agent and replace one monthly block of credits with daily and weekly usage limits. The change gives subscribers more ways to track and manage their allowance, though the limits now come in several flavours.
Why it mattersDaily usage resets 24 hours after first use and weekly usage after seven days. Both run alongside a monthly allowance, with an extra monthly limit for certain more expensive models. If that model-specific limit runs out, other models remain available within the user’s remaining allowance.
Discuss: Would you take daily and weekly usage caps in exchange for an included cloud agent, or would you rather keep one monthly allowance?

Nous/Hermes Watch Update What changedA user posting as witcheer says a coding task cost $0.043 on a premium model and $0.026 on a mid-tier model under Nous’s new Hermes plans. That is a difference of 1.7 cents for the task they tested, not a general price list.
The same post says every plan gives access to every model, while model choice affects how quickly an allowance is used. It also notes that pricier models have a separate monthly limit on top of the other usage allowances.
Those figures offer a small but practical example of how model choice can affect consumption. They are the poster’s test results, not a published benchmark, and the post does not specify the task or models. Treat the comparison as a datapoint, not a reliable estimate of what your own work will cost.
