Credits
Credit costs, how to view your balance, free trial details, and tips for managing usage
Deliverables AI uses a credit system to track AI usage. Different actions consume different amounts of credits.
Credit costs
Document processing
| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
| Process document | 35 credits |
| Process web page or image | 2 credits |
Content generation
| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
| Generate slide | 30-130 credits |
| Generate answer/report | 20 credits |
What drives slide costs?
Slide generation costs vary based on three factors:
- Layout complexity — Simple text slides cost less (~30 credits); data-heavy slides with charts, tables, or multiple visual elements cost more (~80-130 credits)
- Research depth — Slides that require synthesizing information from many sources or performing additional web research consume more credits
- Image generation — AI-generated images add to the cost; slides using stock images or no images cost less
A 30-50 slide CIM with complex financials and institutional imagery typically uses 2,500-4,000 credits. A 10-slide pitch deck uses 500-800 credits. Management presentations and teasers fall somewhere in between.
