DigitalOcean adds a separate prepaid balance for inference and agents

Serverless Inference and Managed Agents can draw from a dedicated non-expiring balance, funded in $5-$500 increments. Other products cannot spend it. Optional auto-reload creates recurring charges; eligible monthly agent plans are separately offered in public preview.
