How credits work

Credits are the platform's internal currency: every generation is paid with them.

What a generation costs

The price is visible before you run, right on the generate button:

• Images — a flat price per picture.
• Video — billed per second: a 10-second clip costs twice as much as a 5-second one.
• Expensive options (high resolution, Professional mode) raise the price — it recalculates the moment you change a setting.

The price (item 6) updates the moment you change a setting in the chips (4) or under the gear (3).

How credits are charged

When you launch, the amount is reserved on your balance. If the generation succeeds, the reserve is captured. If the model returns an error, the reserve is released automatically — you lose nothing.

Where to see your balance and history

Your balance is always visible in the sidebar. The Billing page has top-ups and the full history of charges and refunds.

1. Your current balance.
2. "What it covers" — how many photos and seconds of video a pack buys.
3. The pack button. One-time payment, no subscription.

How to spend less

1. Drafts on cheap models (Z-Image), final renders on flagships.
2. For video, start with short clips at 720p: the idea reads just as well.
3. Found a composition you like — pin the seed so you don't have to re-roll.
