What are credits

Credits are the standard unit of measurement for Kombai usage. The number of credits a task consumes depends on its complexity and length.

How do credits work

Credits are primarily consumed by two actions:
  • Tool calls: Used for search and planning tools.
  • LLM tokens: Used for generating output.
The specific number of credits consumed by a task is determined by its complexity and duration. Credits are only consumed during active task processing. Actions like viewing completed tasks, running output in the sandbox, or storing output do not consume any credits. You will not be charged credits for tasks that fail due to a technical issue on our end. We are continuously working to optimize system efficiency and reduce the number of credits consumed per task.

Usage examples

Here are some examples showing how credit usage depends on the task type and its complexity:

How can I get more credits

Free users can get more credits by upgrading to the Pro plan. You can opt for a monthly credit bundle as part of the Pro plan. Once the current bundle is used up, you can renew the plan with the same or a different bundle.
