Octomind Priced Scheduled Agents by Routine Count and Interval, With Per-Run Cost Caps and an Audit Trail for Non-Runs
Octomind launched Routines on Show HN August 26, 2026, externally-triggered scheduled agents on persistent cloud machines, explicitly built against the failure modes of in-machine schedulers that die when the laptop suspends. Each routine gets persistent disk at ~/routines/<slug>/, a fresh conversation per run by default, optional pre-checks, per-run cost caps, and an audit entry explaining why a run did not execute. Pricing is free for 1 routine daily, Pro for 10 routines at 15-minute minimum interval, Max/Team for 30 at 5-minute minimum, and the post justifies the cost controls with a figure of roughly 3.2x a chatbot turn at five steps and over 30x at fifty.
