| - It runs in IBM Quantum Compute Service in the cloud, not on your machine. | ||
| - It is calibrated like the real device at any given time. The calibration is live, not a snapshot. | ||
| - Its results keep the expected schema but contain randomized mock data. They are not actual or simulated measurement results, so do not use them to check physical correctness. |

We should mention they follow the shape expected on the result on the QPU.
| Dry-run usage is not charged, does not consume your plan allocation, and does not count against any limits. | ||

| Do not use `job.usage_estimation` for a dry-run usage estimate. That property exists on every job, is expressed in seconds, and on a dry-run job it describes the mock job, not a job on the real QPU. To find the number of RUs that the real QPU would charge, use `job.usage(resource_units=True)`. |

I don't fully understand this part:
That property exists on every job, is expressed in seconds, and on a dry-run job it describes the mock job, not a job on the real QPU
We should say something like, while this property exists, the real usage estimation would be on the usage method from the dry-run job.
