Top-ups — how it works

Plain English. No surprise bills. Ever.

Your bill is always the price on your plan

When you hit your monthly limit — tokens or storage — we pause. We do not automatically charge your card.

If you want to keep going, you decide: buy a one-time top-up, or upgrade to the next plan. Either way, you control when and how much you spend.

What’s included — and what more costs

Every plan includes a monthly allowance. If you need more before your next monthly reset, here’s what extra looks like.

What that means in plain terms

A customer conversation uses roughly 5,000 tokens when AI answers them with a fast model. So on the Starter plan, $0.60 worth of top-up tokens = about one more conversation past your monthly 2-million-token allowance.

Most Starter customers never buy a top-up. The 2M/mo allowance covers several hundred conversations. The Professional plan’s 12M/mo covers a couple thousand. Top-ups exist for the months you exceed your usual pattern.

Quick answers

What happens when I hit my monthly limit?

We pause. Your AI stops responding to new chats until you either upgrade your plan, buy a one-time top-up, or wait for your next monthly reset. We never auto-charge your card.

Do top-up tokens ever expire?

They don't expire while your subscription is active — downgrades and plan changes don't touch them. If you cancel your subscription, any unused top-up tokens are forfeited once the plan ends.

What about my monthly plan tokens?

Unused plan tokens roll over for up to 3 months on paid plans. After that they drop off. Top-up tokens you purchased directly don't expire while your subscription is active.

Can I just upgrade instead of buying top-ups?

Yes — you can upgrade anytime. If you consistently hit your limit, upgrading is usually cheaper than buying top-ups every month. We’ll nudge you if we notice that pattern.

What does 'tokens' actually mean?

Tokens are how we measure AI usage. A typical customer conversation uses about 5,000 tokens on a fast AI model, more on a premium model. You don’t need to count them — we show you exactly what you’ve used on your billing dashboard.

The short version

Your monthly plan is your monthly price. Nothing extra unless youclick “buy more.”
