Costs and credit rules

Free software does not include paid-model inference. Seats, inference and cloud compute are billed separately. Do not add inference already paid with credits again. BYOK provider invoices are separate from platform charges.

Each $1 of base credits funds $1 of usage. Processing fee: 5%, without additional credits. Applies to: credit top-ups, credit subscription purchases, credit subscription renewals.

Monthly subscription base credits: $199

Monthly: 10% in month 1; a one-time 50% welcome bonus in month 2 for first-time subscribers; variable tier/streak rewards from month 3 up to 40%, not fixed monthly. Annual: 50% each month. Unlock after monthly paid usage; unused bonus expires at the monthly service-period end.

Current Sep 30, 2026 terms limit purchased credits to one year or earlier account deletion. New users are covered immediately; existing users at the earliest acceptance, Desktop/artifact use or 30 days later. A billing help subsection still says never expire; check the applicable terms.

The FAQ says earliest-expiring credits first; terms say promotional, then monthly/purchased, then bonus. These conflict, so exact consumption-order estimates are disabled.
