📘 Understanding Blockli AI Credits & Usage-Based Billing
Blockli AI Credits are prepaid units that give you access to Blockli’s AI-powered services — including chat, automation, and intelligent insights — through the Blockli Assistant. Rather than paying a fixed monthly fee, you use credits based on how much of the service you consume.
Credits make billing flexible, transparent, and scalable, especially for businesses and developers whose usage may vary over time.
Blockli uses a metered billing model, which means:
You purchase credits in advance (e.g. 1,000 credits).
As you interact with the Blockli Assistant (e.g. sending messages, generating content, etc.), credits are consumed.
When your credit balance runs low, you can top up anytime.
This approach ensures you only pay for what you use, and it scales naturally with your needs.
Each action within Blockli Assistant — like generating AI responses — consumes a certain number of credits, typically based on the number of tokens processed (a token is a unit of text under the hood, but this is abstracted away from users).
Examples:
Sending a short chat message = small number of credits
Asking for a detailed response or multiple outputs = more credits
