What are credits?

Credits are consumed each time you run an AI generation in AIHDStudio. Think of them as generation tokens — one generation = a set number of credits deducted from your balance. Your credit balance is always visible in the top navigation bar.

Credit costs by tool

When are credits deducted?

Credits are deducted when a generation starts, not when it completes. If a generation fails due to a technical error, your credits are refunded automatically.

Free credits

New accounts receive a starter credit allowance to try the tools. The exact amount is shown when you sign up.

Running out of credits

When your balance hits 0:
  • A prompt appears to upgrade your plan or purchase more credits
  • The Design Planner remains accessible — it never requires credits
  • Any in-progress generations complete normally

Credit balance

Your current balance is always shown in the navigation bar. You can also check it in Settings → Your Plan.
