Craft uses an AI credit system so that advanced AI features remain optional and predictable. Credits are consumed when you use cloud-based models. On-device models do not use credits.

Typical usage

Based on testing, 50 credits runs approximately:
  • 1,000 Core model queries
  • 100 Fast model queries
  • 30 Max model queries
These numbers are averages and depend on prompt complexity, document length, and the amount of context processed in each query.

You can buy additional AI credit packs if you need more than what your plan includes. These are optional, flat-fee purchases that work on top of your existing allowance.
