Credits & Usage

Understand how credits work in Kodezi Code, how they are consumed, and how to manage them effectively.

Credits power all AI-driven features inside Kodezi Code. This page explains how credits work, which actions consume them, and how to keep track of your usage while working in the IDE.

What Credits Are

Credits are the units used whenever you perform an AI-related action inside Kodezi Code. This includes:

Debugging code
Optimizing code
Generating new code
Translating code between languages
Explaining code
Generating documentation

Any feature powered by Chronos‑1 uses credits.

How Credits Are Used

Each AI action consumes a small number of credits depending on the size and complexity of the request.

Examples:

Debugging a short function uses fewer credits
Analyzing an entire file or project uses more
Generating documentation for a simple function uses fewer credits
Translating a large class or module uses more

Credits are only consumed when AI processing happens, normal editing, typing, and saving do not use credits.

Checking Your Credit Balance

Kodezi makes it easy to see how many credits you have left.

You can view your credit balance in:

The left sidebar inside the IDE
The Account page on your dashboard
The Credits panel inside the workspace

Your balance updates instantly after every AI action.

Monthly Credit Reset

Your credits reset every month based on your subscription plan. Unused credits do not roll over.

Common reset details:

Free plan resets every 30 days
Pro and paid plans reset monthly on your billing date

You can always upgrade your plan if you need more credits for your workflow.

Tips to Use Credits Efficiently

Here are simple ways to get the most out of your credits:

Select smaller code blocks instead of full files when possible
Combine small tasks into one AI request
Fix errors early to avoid multiple corrections later
Use Explain before Optimize or Generate if code is unclear
Review suggestions before applying to avoid repeated operations

These steps help reduce unnecessary credit usage.

What Happens When Credits Run Out

If your credits reach zero:

You can continue coding normally
AI features will pause temporarily
You can upgrade your plan or wait for your monthly reset

Your project and workspace remain fully accessible.
