How AI-tool pricing works

Credits, units and minutes are not interchangeable. Every vendor meters usage differently, so the entry price alone does not tell you how much you get. Check what one credit actually buys on the vendor page before comparing two prices.

A free tier is not a trial, and neither is a one-time credit grant. A recurring free allowance renews; a trial ends; one-time credits run out. Video tools may also add a watermark on free output. Records here keep these separate.

Monthly-billed and annual-billed prices are different offers. The headline entry price on each record is the monthly-billed figure as displayed; the lower annual-billed equivalent is labelled separately and never substituted for it.

Some subscriptions buy a platform, not one model. Multi-model platforms host third-party models alongside their own, so a plan buys access to a platform. Avatar-first products are a different category again.

Not listed stays not listed. Where the vendor did not state a value, the record says Not listed rather than guessing. Not listed does not mean unavailable.
