FAQs about AI Credits

How do AI credits work?
Each time you generate content with the AI assistant, credits are consumed based on the number of tokens needed to process your request. Tokens represent the units of text (words, characters) that the AI processes to generate your content. More complex or longer generations require more tokens, which means more credits are consumed.

Can I add more credits to my plan?
Currently, it is not possible to purchase additional credits. Your monthly credit allocation depends on your plan. If you need more credits, consider upgrading to a higher plan.

Do unused credits carry over to the next month?
No, credits reset at the beginning of each billing cycle. Make sure to use your monthly allocation before it resets.
