What are credits in an AI app builder?

Credits are the unit many AI app builders charge in for the AI work behind each request. Every message you send, such as building a screen or fixing a bug, uses some credits, depending on how much work the AI model does. Plans come with an amount each month or each day, and more can be bought.

More about Credits

Each tool sizes its credit differently, so comparing them by the number of credits is misleading: what a credit pays for matters more than how many you get.

Credits with Borel

At Borel, 1 credit pays for 10 US cents of AI model cost, and a message often uses only part of one. The Free plan gives 5 credits a day, up to 30 a month, and Pro starts at $20 a month for 100 credits. Running your apps is paid separately, from a balance in dollars.
