Two kinds of credits

Your balance is split into two buckets, both of which you can spend:

Plan credits

Monthly subscription credits from your active plan. They roll over up to a maximum balance (the “bank limit”) — once you're full, additional plan credits stop being added until you spend some.

Bonus credits

Credits from the signup bonus, referrals, feedback rewards, refill purchases or manual awards. Bonus credits never expire and are spent after your monthly plan credits.

What credits pay for

Each prompt reserves credits before it runs and captures the actual cost when it completes. The amount depends on the type of operation:

  • • Build prompts consume credits proportional to the size and complexity of the change.
  • • Ask prompts consume a small fixed amount per question — cheaper than Build, never zero.
  • • Creating a new product reserves at least the standard Build amount.
Credits are not consumed by viewer interactions, exports, downloads, switching versions, or running measurements inside the workspace.

How the Free tier works

  • • 5-credit signup bonus added to your bonus bucket on account creation.
  • • 5 daily credits drip-grant, capped at 25 per month.
  • • The daily drip is available for the first 2 months after signup, so up to 50 credits total from the drip itself.
  • • Free projects may be used to improve the product and showcase the public catalog. Upgrade to Pro or Business for private projects.
The Usage page shows the next daily and next monthly grant date so you always know when more credits will arrive. If you hit the limit before your first build completes, starting a new product once credits arrive gives the AI a clean slate and usually produces a stronger result.

Refill packs

Pro and Business subscribers can buy one-time credit packs. Refill credits go to your bonus bucket and never expire; they're spent after your monthly plan credits. Refills are not available on the Free plan — upgrade to Pro to unlock them.
