How Chat Credits Work

Each interaction with Alex uses chat credits:

  • Sending a message: 1 credit
  • Agent follow-up actions: 1 credit per action (for example, if the agent performs 3 actions autonomously, that’s 3 credits)
  • Image generation: 2 credits for the first image, 1 credit for each additional image

​
Credit Rollover Policy

  • Monthly credits do not roll over to the next month
  • Purchased top-up credits roll over to the next month

​
Grandfather Clauses

We take care of our existing subscribers:

  • Premium subscribers (old plan) are grandfathered—you keep your plan until you choose to switch or cancel
  • Old Mini plan ($10/month) subscribers are also grandfathered

These pricing updates supersede any other pricing information in our documentation.
