Credits — how many, for what, why
The internal currency of Sozdai is credits (💎). Paid operations deduct credits from your balance. Free ones don't. Let's sort out which is which.
Balance
Visible in the top-right corner — 💎 icon and a number. At sign-up you get 10 free credits — that's 5 cards in "Fast" mode (Flash, 2 💎) or 3 in "Quality" mode (Pro, 3 💎).
New accounts start on Flash by default, so the starting credits stretch to more attempts. You can switch quality on the generation step, or once and for all in your profile.
Once credits run out, paid-operation buttons go inactive. To top up — with a subscription or a one-time pack that needs no subscription.
Costs
| Operation | Credits | When |
|---|---|---|
| Flash generation | 2 | "Fast" in wizard Step 2 or Advanced — default |
| Pro generation | 3 | "Quality" in wizard Step 2 or Advanced |
| Refine with text | 2 | "What to change" input on result screen |
| Regenerate (Create again) | 2 or 3 | Regeneration = new generation, same prices |
| Product analysis | free | Automatic on import |
| Analysis editing | free | Manual or via "Regenerate block" |
Why no refunds
If you don't like the card — credits aren't refunded. Reason: neural-network resources are consumed during processing; the request has already been sent, the provider has been charged.
What to do instead of a refund:
- Refine — 2 💎 for a correction.
- Regenerate — 2-3 💎 for another attempt with the same settings.
- Change template/reference/instructions — then regenerate.
How to spend less
- Drafts → Flash, finals → Pro. Not the reverse.
- Before first generation — check the analysis and settings. If the analysis is raw, the generation will be raw; you'll burn credits on refine and may not pull through.
- Refine precisely, not descriptively. "Make it nicer" wastes credits.
- Save good references — reusing an example costs 0 additional credits.
Bonus credits
Beyond purchased credits, you can earn bonus credits:
- For inviting a friend who buys a subscription — +30 💎 (60-day expiry).
- For following our Telegram channel — +15 💎 (no expiry).
- For filling in a short survey when your credits run low — +10 💎 (no expiry, once).
Bonus credits are spent before purchased credits so they don't go to waste. On Plans & billing you'll see the full balance breakdown with credit types and expiry dates.
