Transparent token-based pricing

How prepaid credit works

Prepaid credit keeps your spend predictable. You load funds once. The system deducts tokens used. Errors cost nothing. Refusals cost nothing. You only pay for what the model produces. This eliminates surprise bills from long-running processes or unexpected output lengths. Your balance never expires. You can top up whenever you want. The system tracks usage in real time. You see exactly what you spent. No hidden fees. No monthly minimums. Just pure token consumption.

Trial credit details

New accounts get $0.50 of trial credit. It lasts for 7 days. You can test the uncensored model immediately. This covers roughly 3 million input tokens or 1 million output tokens. Use it to verify latency and response quality. The trial is one per person. It does not roll over. After 7 days, the credit expires. You must top up with crypto to continue using the API. This lets you evaluate the service before committing funds.

Why prepaid balances prevent overspend

A prepaid balance acts as a hard limit. You cannot spend more than you load. This is crucial for unattended processes. If a script loops unexpectedly, your loss is capped at your balance. You avoid the anxiety of runaway token counts. You can set alerts for low balance. You can pause usage by removing the key. This model suits developers who want exact cost control. It works well for batch jobs. It works well for high-volume chat apps. You know your max cost upfront.
