Credit System
Credits are purchased in packs and never expire. New accounts receive 50 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. The number of platforms does not affect the cost.
- Image generation — Cost varies by model. Generating multiple images multiplies the per-image cost. Higher-quality models cost more credits.
- Publishing — A flat 1-credit base fee per publish action, with premium platforms (X) adding a surcharge due to higher API costs. All other platforms are included in the base fee.
The exact credit cost for each action is shown in the app before you confirm, and included in API responses.
Sample: A typical text post with regular research, generated for 3 platforms, with one image and published to all 3, might cost around 10–15 credits total.
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.
