FreeAI creditsLoading…Auto modelPricing

Automatic uses a server-configured model for each task. Select a model to use it for generation, editing, reviews and assessments. Your selection is saved to your account.

AI mode

Uses selected excerpts and requests concise responses. Some source content may be omitted. Applies to your next AI request. Final cost depends on actual input and output; Economy is not always cheaper.

What is a credit?

Credits measure AI usage. Credits pay for AI token usage; one credit is not one AI task.

A short text edit uses fewer credits than reviewing a full paper. The amount depends on text length and the AI model.

Reading, collaboration, reference search and PDF compilation do not use AI credits.

Credits are reserved before AI starts and adjusted to reported usage. If an interrupted request has no usage report, its reservation is retained. The selected credit source pays for your next AI request.
