# AI credits

> Understand what consumes an AI credit and where to check usage.

AI credits measure AI feature usage. One credit is consumed per AI action.

## What costs a credit

| Action                                   | Credits |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------- |
| Auto-response                            | 1       |
| Suggestion / draft reply                 | 1       |
| Text modifier (tone, shorten, formalize) | 1       |
| AI condition node in a workflow          | 1       |
| Extract Data node                        | 1       |
| Workflow AI response                     | 1       |
| Static condition, delay, or API call     | 0       |

Rule of thumb: every AI node or AI reply costs 1 credit. Static logic does not.

## Examples

| Flow                                   | Credits                     |
| -------------------------------------- | --------------------------- |
| Extract Data with several fields       | 1 (per node, not per field) |
| AI Condition + AI reply                | 2                           |
| Extract Data + AI Condition + AI reply | 3                           |
