KNOW BEFORE YOU GENERATE

Clear credits. No surprises.

One run creates one image. Your model, resolution and use of a reference or area edit determine the credits shown before you submit.

References and source size

Nano Banana and Seedream include the reference at the displayed output tier. FLUX adds 25 credits per reference MP, rounded up; 1 MP is 1024 × 1024 pixels.

GPT Image reference runs use the higher tier of the output and source image. Area edits preserve source dimensions and use the source tier, regardless of the output selector.

Source tiers: 1K up to 1.6 million pixels; 2K up to 5 million; 4K up to 16,777,216. These are billing tiers, not a promise of larger output pixels.

What is charged?

A new generation, regeneration or AI edit preview is a separate paid run. Accepting, discarding or undoing an AI preview does not refund its generation.

Adding or moving your text and arrows, saving, opening versions and exporting do not use generation credits. Styles, palettes and aspect ratios add no separate fee.

The same credit rules apply to every plan. Credits are not dollars and are not the image service’s billing units.

Failure and pending requests

Credits are reserved while processing, then charged once on success. A confirmed failed request releases its reserved credits. An unknown result stays pending until confirmed; refreshing or checking that request does not start another paid run.

You see the required credits before submitting. If the rules have changed, submission stops before reserving credits and asks you to reload and review the new quote.

GPT Image 2 and GPT Image 2.6 are not currently available for account-credit billing.

Credit rules version: 2026-11-01-v1 · Development stage: production generation and subscriptions remain unavailable.

One connected workflow

Generate a concept, refine your labels and arrows, and save versions in a private project.

Four export formats

PNG, JPG, SVG and PPTX. Added annotations stay separate from the generated bitmap.

Clear account status

Pack availability comes from the configured service. No credits are added while payment is pending.

Good to know

When are credits added?

After the configured payment service confirms a payment. A checkout return alone does not add credits.

Can I buy credits in production?

Production checkout is currently restricted while generation and payment operations are being validated. This page displays the options configured for your account.

Do generated illustrations still need review?

Yes. Every scientific label, structure and relationship must be checked against your sources.
