Credit System
Credits are purchased in packs and never expire. New accounts receive free credits on signup. Buy more credits anytime from the pricing page or in the dashboard.
How Credits Are Used
Credits are consumed across three types of actions:
- Caption generation — Cost depends on research mode (regular or deep), with additional charges for image and video analysis. Deep research costs more than regular.
- Image generation — Cost varies by model and quantity. Higher-quality models cost more credits.
- Video generation — Cost varies by model, duration, and audio settings.
- Publishing — Cost per publish action, with premium platforms (X) costing more due to higher API costs.
The exact credit cost for each action is included in API responses via credits_used. See the pricing page for current rates.
Credits are refunded for failed generations. Publishing credits are only charged for items that publish successfully — no charge for failed items. Image generations with partial failures receive a partial refund.
