AI credits: access, estimates and completed usage
Understand Gab AI credits, included allowances and credit packs. Find your balance, read a request estimate and see what a completed task used.
Understand the balances in your account
Signup credits, monthly plan allowances and purchased packs let you use Gab AI models and tools. The signup allowance starts at 30 credits and reaches 250 in total after applicable verification. The table below explains the different balances.
Balance and eligibility
| Topic | What to check |
|---|---|
| Signup and promotional | Can fund eligible Arya, selected text and image requests. They do not unlock video or other non-allowlisted gated models. |
| Plus included allowance | 2,000 credits monthly in the current Plus plan; Premium has 12,000. Applicable request costs draw on eligible balances. |
| Purchased personal packs | Carry forward and do not expire, subject to account restrictions, termination and applicable terms. A purchased balance does not replace the Plus requirement for Work or live Voice. |
| Company balances | Workspace ownership, allowed spending and refresh conditions differ from personal packs. Read the Business terms before moving or using an allowance. |
Match the request to its access requirements
Signup credits cover eligible Arya, selected text and image requests. Video, music and other gated models need Plus or qualifying purchased credits. Work and live Voice require Plus.
Read an estimate and find completed usage
Read the estimate where shown before submitting. A request may reserve credits while it runs and settle its usage after completion. In Settings → Usage History, filter by date, model or activity and expand a task group to see its entries. Match the actual request when reviewing a charge.
For token-priced models, input, context and generated output affect cost; tools can add calls or other usage. Media may use different units. Credits are Gab’s usage unit, with no single fixed tokens-per-credit conversion.
Included default chat and API rules differ
Plus default Arya chat in the app is included under the current conditions and applicable service limits. Free chat has a minimum and usage rules. Authenticated API requests have separate credit usage, including Arya. Work or a selected tool can have other costs; included default chat does not make every request unlimited or free.
Understand usage for different tasks
An answer, a media generation and a Work project can use different models and tools. Review the estimate where shown and the completed request in Usage History.
Image, video and music usage
The model, inputs and settings affect media usage. Duration can also matter for video and music. The relevant guide explains the controls for your request.
Model and tool use in Work
A Work task can make several model and tool calls while researching, creating a file or revising it. Expand the task in Usage History to inspect its associated charges.
Follow a complete workflow
See a request, result and focused revision in these walkthroughs. Use your own completed usage when planning similar work.
Check the next allowance refresh
Monthly included credits refresh on the account’s billing-credit schedule. Unused allowance does not accumulate. Check the displayed next reset and your subscription status; annual payment and monthly credit refresh are different schedules. Purchased personal credits carry forward under their terms.
Review an incomplete or disputed charge
If a request stops or fails, inspect its status, Usage and account records before retrying. Authorized processing can consume credits even when an output needs revision. Do not assume every interruption produces a refund. Contact support about incorrect, duplicate or missing credits without supplying passwords, API keys or full payment information.
A one-time pack and Auto Top-Up are different
A one-time credit purchase does not itself enable Auto Top-Up. Auto Top-Up is a separate authorization with its own settings and limits. Manage it separately from subscription cancellation; review the applicable purchase terms before enabling it.
Find the usage behind your work.
In Usage History, match the model, date and task to your request. Use its completed entries when reviewing a charge or planning similar work.
