Two ways to play. Subscribe for a daily credit pool that refills itself, or buy credit packs and pay only for what you use. Either way you always pick the AI model that fits your story, and we never silently swap it for a cheaper one.
Every plan draws from the same credit pool: a free balance that tops up over time, separate from any credits you buy. Subscribing simply raises your daily grant and cap, and the pool keeps filling while you're away.
Every time you take a turn in a journey, the AI model you chose processes your action and generates the next part of the story. That turn costs a certain number of credits, which are deducted from your balance.
Different AI models have different costs per turn. A cost estimation is available for most models (which we're still calibrating, and heavily depends on the world definition), and you pick the model yourself. We will not silently swap your model for a cheaper one.
Same goes for image generation.
You can buy credits in packs through secure checkout. Credits land in your account as soon as payment completes.

If you publish a world and other players spend credits on it, you earn a share of those credits.
While playing, click the credit icon in the journey toolbar to open a panel showing your recent turn costs and an estimate of how many more turns you can play with your current balance. This makes it easy to see how a model is performing for the world you're in, and to plan ahead.
