API Access
API access is credit-based on all plans. The Unlimited plan gives you unlimited generations on the web and CLI, but API calls consume credits like any other plan. Unlimited subscribers receive 20 API credits included with their subscription.
Need higher-volume API access for your team or product? Get in touch — we'd love to chat about your use case.
Fair Use Policy
The Unlimited plan has a soft cap of 100 generations per month on web and CLI. This exists to prevent abuse and ensure service quality for all users. In practice, very few users approach this limit.
If you consistently exceed 100 generations/month, we'll reach out to discuss your usage and may offer an enterprise arrangement. You will never be blocked without notice.
