Understanding credits and usage
Credits are the currency of Anuma. Every action, sending a message, generating an image, creating a video, uses credits. Your plan determines how many credits you get.
How credits work
Here’s the credit allowance for each plan:
| Plan | Credits | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 100/mo | $0/mo |
| Starter | 1,000/mo | 7.99/mo billed annually) |
| Pro | 2,500/mo | 15.99/mo billed annually) |
Credits refresh on every plan, including Free, and don’t carry over. Paid plans reset at the start of each billing cycle; the Free plan gets a fresh 100 credits at the start of each month.
What uses credits
Different actions consume different amounts of credits depending on the AI model and task:
- Chat messages, Varies by model. Some models cost more credits per message than others.
- Image generation, Each image costs credits based on the model and resolution.
- Video generation, Video creation uses more credits than images.
- Council Mode, Running multiple models simultaneously costs credits for each model that responds.
- Nearby, Generating a meetup cover or an image inside a Nearby chat uses credits like any other generation.
