How it all works

Simple and transparent. Here's exactly what you get and what things cost.

Credits, in one line

A credit is what you spend to generate a solution. 1 credit = 1 solution for a problem in the basket. Bringing your own idea to the Idea Lab costs 3 credits (it does more work). Nothing you hold ever expires. There are two kinds, and the difference only matters if your subscription stops.

The two kinds of credit

Credits you buy

From a credit pack, plus the free ones you get when you join. You paid for a specific number, so they are yours to spend whenever you like, subscription or not. They never expire and they are never paused.

Credits included with a subscription

Your monthly allowance. They roll over month to month while you are subscribed. If your subscription stops, these are held rather than spent: you keep them, you can still see them, and they become spendable again the moment you resubscribe. Nothing is ever deleted.

What happens to your credits

Your subscription month ends and you still have credits	You keep every one of them. Nothing is wiped.
You renew	Your new monthly credits are added on top of what you already had.
You let the subscription lapse or cancel it	Credits you bought stay spendable as normal. Credits that came with the subscription are held: you keep them and can see them on your account, and they unlock again when you resubscribe. Subscriber access to every existing solution stops until then.
You save up without spending	Credits roll over month to month up to a balance of 30 credits. Once you are at that balance, the monthly top-up pauses until you spend some. You never lose credits you already have.

The two ways to pay

Credits (pay as you go)

Buy a pack, spend as you like. Good if you just want to generate a few solutions or use the Idea Lab. No commitment, and they never expire.

Buy credits

Subscription (monthly)

Unlock every solution already generated in the basket, plus a monthly allowance of credits to generate more. Best for active builders.

If a generation ever fails, your credits are automatically returned. You can review every credit movement in your history.
