User Credits
CodeFlicker uses a credit system to support AI feature usage. Credits are consumed based on the number of tokens used and the model type.
Credit Consumption Mechanism
Token-Based Billing
Credit consumption is based on the number of tokens processed by the AI model, including the text and image content you send to the AI and the AI-generated responses.
Consumption Multipliers for Different Models
Different AI models consume different multipliers of credits. Please refer to the model selection list in the product for specific ratios, subject to actual display.
Tip
Choosing the right model can help you use credits more efficiently. For simple tasks, it is recommended to use basic models.
