Credits & billing

Credits are how you pay for tool runs on AgentLeverage. Each account has a credit balance, and most tools spend a few credits per run. Paid plans refresh your included credits each billing period; free orgs receive a one-time starting allowance. You can always see your current numbers on the billing page — that's the source of truth if anything here and the app ever disagree.

What each tool costs

You're charged credits only when a run happens. Costs are small and predictable:

Tool	Cost
Background Remover	1 credit per use
Speaker Separation	2 credits per minute
News Analyzer	1 credit per use
Invoice Processor	3 credits per use
Minutes	2 credits per use
Quote Check	2 credits per use
Review VOC Pack	2 credits per use
Diagram Editor	Free
YouTube Transcript Analysis	2 credits per use
AI Inspector	2 credits per use
Audio Redaction	3 credits per minute

Speaker Separation is billed per minute of audio, rounded up to the whole minute. The pre-run estimate uses your file's duration; the final charge is confirmed from the processed length.

The exact cost is shown on every tool's card and page before you run it. One add-on is charged separately: AI Inspector's optional per-session dossier costs 3 credits on top of the inspection, and only when you ask for it.

In-app assistant messages (org chats) cost 0.01 credits each — 100 messages per credit — and come out of the same org pool as tool runs. Personal chats with no organization stay free.

Where credits come from

Credits reach your account two ways.

Your monthly plan

Every account is on a plan:

New accounts start on Free, no credit card required — those starting credits are how you try the product. Paid checkout charges immediately. Paid plans refresh included credits when Stripe processes each renewal (invoice.paid); your used count resets and unused included credits do not carry forward. One-time credit packs never expire. Paid plans also add:

• Yearly billing saves roughly 17% versus paying monthly.
• Priority support on Pro; email support on Starter.

Every tool is available on every plan, including Free — plans differ by how many credits you get and whether they refresh. A few extras are paid-plan only: exporting your Job History to CSV and comparing two job runs side by side (see Jobs & files).

Compare plans and upgrade from Settings → Billing.

One-time credit packs

You can also buy a one-time pack without changing your plan. It adds credits to your balance right away:

Checking your balance and usage

• Settings → Billing — your current balance, which plan you're on, how much of this period's credits you've used, and where to upgrade or buy a pack. The Credits card on Home uses the same period used count.
• Usage history — credits used over time, a breakdown by tool, your most-used tools, and a full transaction history.
• A connected agent can read the same numbers with get_credit_balance, get_credit_history, and get_credit_usage_stats. It cannot buy packs or change your plan.

Running low

You can set a low-credit alert on the billing page so you get a warning banner before you run out. When your credits run low, you have two options: upgrade to a plan with a bigger monthly allowance, or buy a one-time pack. There's no surprise overage billing — if your balance reaches zero, tool runs pause until you top up. One-time pack credits never expire.

Cancelling

Paid plans are month-to-month with no lock-in — cancel anytime from the billing page. If you cancel, you drop back to the free plan at the end of your current period.
