Understanding Managed AI Credits and Usage

Managed AI credits are the currency you use within Blanca's Builder to access our advanced artificial intelligence features. These features include, but are not limited to, AI-powered content generation, image creation and optimization, code assistance, data analysis, and intelligent automation for your website and SaaS applications. Each AI operation, depending on its complexity and the resources it consumes, deducts a specific number of credits from your available balance.

Our AI services are designed to provide unparalleled efficiency and creative power. To ensure fair usage and sustainable resource allocation, every interaction with our AI models is metered. This metered approach allows us to offer a wide range of powerful AI tools while maintaining transparent and predictable pricing for our users.

The metering of AI credits is based on the computational resources required for each AI task. For example, generating a short text snippet might consume fewer credits than generating a high-resolution image, or performing a complex data analysis. The cost in credits is dynamically determined by factors such as the input length, output length, model complexity, and the type of AI task being performed.

Specific credit consumption rates for different AI features are detailed within the Blanca's Builder platform and are transparently communicated before you initiate a credit-consuming operation. We strive to provide clear indications of credit costs, allowing you to make informed decisions about your AI usage. Our system is designed to prevent unexpected overages by prompting you before significant credit expenditures.

Your Blanca's Builder account includes a comprehensive AI Usage Dashboard, which is your central hub for monitoring credit consumption. This dashboard provides a real-time overview of your remaining credits, historical usage patterns, and a breakdown of credit consumption by different AI features. You can access it by navigating to your Account Settings and selecting the 'AI Usage' tab.

On the dashboard, you'll find data visualizations that clearly show your credit usage over time (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly). It also lists recent AI operations, detailing the feature used, the timestamp, and the exact number of credits deducted. This transparency empowers you to track your spending, identify your most utilized AI tools, and optimize your workflow. Regular review of your dashboard is recommended to stay informed about your AI resource allocation.

Each Blanca's Builder subscription plan comes with a predefined monthly allocation of Managed AI credits. These credits are provided at the beginning of each billing cycle and are designed to support typical usage for your chosen plan. If your usage consistently exceeds this allocation, it might indicate that a higher-tier plan or an additional credit package would be more suitable for your needs.

Credits typically reset at the start of your new billing period. Unused credits from the previous month may or may not roll over, depending on your specific subscription plan. Details regarding credit rollover policies are clearly outlined in your plan's terms and conditions. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with these details to maximize the value of your subscription.

If you find your Managed AI credits running low before the end of your billing cycle, Blanca's Builder offers several options to ensure uninterrupted access to our AI features. You will receive notifications as your credit balance approaches critical levels, allowing you to take proactive measures.

The primary options include purchasing additional 'top-up' credit packages, which provide an instant boost to your balance and are valid until your next billing cycle or until fully consumed. Alternatively, you may consider upgrading your subscription plan to a higher tier that includes a larger monthly allocation of credits. This is often the most cost-effective solution for consistently high AI usage. Both options are easily accessible directly from your AI Usage Dashboard or through your Account Settings.
