Credits (Usage Billing)

A usage unit where each AI action costs a set amount, so billing tracks what you actually create.

What it means

Credits are a metering unit. Instead of an unlimited flat fee, each action - a draft, a batch of thumbnails, a carousel slide - spends a defined number of credits, and your plan includes an allotment each month.

The model aligns cost with value: a heavy month of production spends more than a light one, and you can see exactly where your allotment went.

Why creators like it

Credits make the economics legible. You know what each thing costs before you make it, and a plan can be sized to how much you actually publish rather than a guess. SelfScale's plans each include a monthly credit allotment sized to a different level of output.

Create content in your voice - at scale

SelfScale learns how you write from your own posts, so every draft sounds like you, not a generic chatbot.
