# AI Credits

### What are AI credits?

AI credits are the currency that powers dMeet's AI features — the [**AI Voice Translator**](/lets-get-started/meeting-chat-and-ai-voice-translator.md) and [**AI Summary**](/lets-get-started/ai-summary.md). Think of them as *minutes*: each credit covers one minute of AI usage during a meeting.

Your credits refresh automatically every month based on your plan:

| Plan       | AI credits/month |
| ---------- | ---------------- |
| Free       | 30               |
| Pro        | 300              |
| Business   | 680              |
| Enterprise | Custom           |

* **Both** enabled at the same time \
  → **3** credits per minute

  {% endcolumns %}

**AI Memory** (the [Ask AI](/lets-get-started/ask-ai.md) assistant) works differently — it's **10 credits per question**, no matter how many meetings it searches through to find the answer. If it can't find anything relevant to your question, you won't be charged.

Credits are spent from the **host's account** — participants don't use their own credits when joining a meeting.

{% hint style="info" icon="hundred-points" %}
You can track exactly how many credits you've used — and how many are left — on the [**Plan & Billing**](/plans-and-billing/plans-and-pricing.md) page under **Usage**.
{% endhint %}

### Buying additional credits

Running low more often than you'd like? You can top up your balance with additional AI credits — *separate from your monthly plan allowance.*

{% hint style="info" %}
Additional credits are available on [**Pro** and **Business**](/plans-and-billing/plans-and-pricing.md#pro-and-business-whats-better-and-why) plans (and Enterprise, by default). They're not available on the Free plan — if you're on Free, upgrading is the way to unlock this option.
{% endhint %}

**How it works:**

* Choose a credit package and pay through Stripe, same as a regular subscription payment
* You can buy as many packages as you'd like, whenever you'd like — there's no limit
* Pricing depends on your plan — the higher your plan, the cheaper your rate per credit. Business gets a better price per credit than Pro.

{% hint style="success" icon="sparkle" %}
**The key difference from your plan credits:** additional credits **never expire**. Your *monthly plan credits reset every cycle* — whatever's left over doesn't carry forward. *Additional credits*, on the other hand, *stay on your balance* until you use them, no matter how long that takes.
{% endhint %}

**Spending order:** dMeet always spends your monthly plan credits first. Only once those run out does it start drawing from your additional credit balance — so you're never paying extra before you have to!

You can track both separately on the [**Plan & Billing**](/plans-and-billing/plans-and-pricing.md) page: the main progress bar shows your monthly plan credits, while a separate breakdown below it shows how much you've used on each feature — AI Memory, AI Summary, and AI Translation.

#### Auto-reload

Want to never think about running out mid-meeting? Turn on **Auto-reload** in the credits section of the Plan & Billing page. Set a threshold and dMeet will top up your balance automatically when you hit it. It's disabled by default, so nothing changes until you turn it on.

### What happens when credits run out?

Nothing dramatic. If your credits run out mid-meeting, the AI features stop — but your meeting keeps going completely normally. No one gets disconnected, nothing gets interrupted.

You'll see a notification letting you know credits have been used up. At that point you can top up your balance, upgrade your plan, or continue the meeting without AI features.

{% hint style="success" icon="scroll" %}
If AI Summary was running when credits ran out, the summary will be generated based on the portion of the meeting that was recorded — up until the moment credits were exhausted.
