Credits & residuals

LAST UPDATED · 2026-10-30

Most AI video, voice, and music plans give you a monthly credit allowance. Unused credits often disappear at the next billing date. This page shows the current rollover rules so you can choose plans that match how you actually work and avoid wasting leftovers.

Prices and credit rules change often — always confirm inside the tool.

Why residuals matter

A cheap plan can become expensive if you regularly leave credits unused. Some platforms reset everything monthly. Others let you carry a limited amount forward or keep purchased top-ups for a long time. Knowing the difference helps you pick the right tier and use what you already paid for.

Quick tips

  • Prefer platforms with partial rollover or long-lasting top-ups if your usage is uneven.
  • On strict “no rollover” plans, try to use remaining credits before the reset date.
  • Team or enterprise plans sometimes let admins allocate a shared pool — useful if you work with others.
  • Always check the official pricing or credits page inside the tool. Rules can change without notice.

How to use

  • Select the platform and enter the remaining credits you still have.
  • Add an approximate cost per credit (look at your plan price ÷ total monthly credits).
  • Set the reset date (the day the credits expire or renew).
  • Click Add. You can add as many platforms as you want.
  • The list sorts by nearest reset date. Red means less than 4 days left.
  • Everything is saved in your browser only — nothing is sent anywhere.
