AI usage & credits
Every AI step in the studio, such as an agent turn or a generated image, is paid for in Φ. Your workspace pays in this order:
- AI usage — included in your plan. It renews every day and every week.
- AI credits — bought separately. They pay only once the AI usage is used up, and only if the workspace owner allows it.
Serving a published app does not use AI.
Where to see it
- In the studio, the AI usage chip in the top bar shows how much is left and when it renews. Its panel links to your account.
- In your account, Credits shows everything: today’s and this week’s AI usage, your credits, the history and this month’s spend.
AI usage
Usage renews as earlier requests fall out of the last 24 hours and the last 7 days, so it comes back on its own; you do not have to wait for a fixed reset time. Unused usage does not carry over. How much each plan includes is on the pricing page.
AI credits
The AI credits section shows your Balance, the amount In use now (set aside for AI requests that are still running) and what is Available.
Continue with credits when usage runs out — when this is on and today’s or this week’s AI usage is used up, AI requests continue on your credits instead of waiting for usage to renew. Only the workspace owner can change it.
Buying credits
Credits are sold in packs on the Credits page. Each pack shows how long its credits stay valid, and prices include VAT. If you are not the owner, the page asks you to ask the workspace owner to buy them.
History and this month
History lists each AI request and credit movement, and what paid for it. This month shows the month’s total, split into what came from AI usage and what came from credits.
When it runs out
When the AI usage is used up and credits are off or empty, the studio’s agent stops taking new requests and says so in the chat, with a link to your account. Nothing is lost: your projects stay as they are, and your published apps keep running. Try again when usage renews, or turn on credits.
