AI Credits & Plans
AI Credits are the unit of AI build/edit work in DYPAI. Every time the AI builds or edits your app — whether from your IDE via MCP or in Studio — it spends credits, scaled by the size of the task.
Your apps never go offline
Credits only meter AI building and editing. Your deployed apps stay live regardless of your credit balance — running apps are never gated by credits.
How credits are earned
| Plan | AI Credits |
|---|---|
| Free | +5 per day |
| Pro | 100 per month + 100 one-time Launch Credits on activation |
- Monthly plan credits reset each billing cycle — they don't roll over.
- Purchased top-up packs never expire, and are consumed only after your monthly credits run out.
- Your balance = monthly credits + purchased credits. It's shown in the project sidebar and on the org Credits page, where you can also buy top-up packs (one-time purchases).
Credits also meter Managed AI
Beyond building, credits meter your DYPAI Managed AI usage at runtime (priced as AI Credits / 1M tokens). If you bring your own provider key (BYOK), you pay that provider directly and those tokens don't spend credits. See Managed AI.
What spends credits
Building & editing
The AI creating tables, endpoints, workflows, or rewriting your app — scaled by task size.
Managed AI at runtime
The agent and image-generation nodes when running on DYPAI Managed AI, metered per token.
