Word credits and monthly allowance

Word credits are the shared meter for long outputs, Chat turns, humanization passes, and similar AI work. Your plan defines how many words you get per billing period and when the counter resets.

What counts toward your balance

1. Documents and essays — Roughly proportional to generated length plus any research or humanization steps your plan includes.
2. Workspace Chat — Each send and reply reserves words based on prompt size, attachments, and expected reply length. Chat uses the same pool as documents, not a separate unlimited bucket on standard plans.
3. Humanization and checks — Additional passes add usage on top of the draft itself.

Short prompts cost less than long pastes or full PDFs. Rate limits can still apply so the service stays responsive for everyone.

What does not roll over

Unused words typically do not carry into the next billing cycle. Treat the allowance as a monthly budget, not a bank balance.

If you hit the cap

1. Open Usage to confirm what burned the budget.
2. Upgrade or add capacity if your plan offers packs.
3. Otherwise wait for the renewal date shown in billing.

Next step

Review your usage before starting another long document or a heavy Chat session.
