Plans > Understanding credits

Credits are how the platform measures usage. This article explains the two types of credits, how they're consumed, and how to track your spending over time.

The two types of credits

Type

Description

Regular credits

Your monthly allocation from your plan. Used first whenever an activity consumes credits. Unused credits carry over to the next month — they don't expire.

PAYG credits

Pay-as-you-go credits purchased in addition to your plan. Consumed after your regular credits run out. Can be transferred to workspaces if you're on an agency plan.

Regular credits are always consumed before extra credits. If you have 500 regular credits and 200 extra credits and an activity costs 10 credits, it comes from your regular balance first.


How credits roll over

The platform uses a rollover model. Each billing cycle, your monthly credit allocation is added to your existing balance — not replaced. If you had 300 credits left from last month and your plan adds 1,000 this month, you now have 1,300.

Regular credits don't expire, so there's no pressure to use them up before the end of a cycle.


Viewing your credit usage

Go to Settings → Credit Usage.

Select a time range to see your consumption:

  • Last 24 Hours

  • Last 7 Days

  • Last 30 Days

  • Custom Range (pick any start and end date)

The page shows:

  • Total credits consumed in the selected period

  • Breakdown by category — each activity type shown separately with its credit total

  • Per-signal breakdown — expand any category to see which Signals consumed credits and how much

  • Individual events — expand further to see timestamps, action types, and metadata for each credit event

Why filters save credits

The biggest credit cost is contact enrichment at 2 credits per person. Everything before enrichment — collecting posts, reactions, and comments — is cheap by comparison. This is why the job title filter, employee filter, minimum likes threshold, and AI Agent pre-enrichment gates exist: they prevent you from spending 2 credits enriching someone who isn't relevant.

See [Filtering who gets enriched] and [What are AI Agents and how do they work] for how to use these effectively.


Running low on credits

If your credit balance is low, a banner appears in the app. You can purchase extra credits at any time from your account billing page — they're added to your balance immediately and consumed after your regular credits.
