Start pay as you go and top up your AI balance
Pay a small monthly base fee, and pay for AI replies from a balance you top up yourself.

Pay as you go is the second way to pay, beside the packages. It suits a business that wants to start small: a monthly base fee keeps your channel, inbox, flows and CRM on, and every AI reply is paid from a prepaid balance.
Start
- 1Open Billing & plans in Settings (or pick pay as you go when you sign up).
- 2On the Pay as you go card, click “Start for … /month” and pay the base fee.
- 3A one-time welcome credit lands in your balance, so you can try your agent with real customers straight away.
Top up
- 1Open the Top up tab and pick an amount (from $1).
- 2Pay. The amount is added to your balance as soon as the payment goes through.
- AI credits count the same way as on a package: 1 for every AI answer, +1 for each action the agent takes (up to 2), +1 when it hears a voice note or reads a photo or PDF. Each reply takes its credits from your AI credit balance.
- AI credits are prepaid platform usage: they never expire and are non-refundable, and nothing is ever charged automatically — you decide when to top up.
- Small top-ups show a small card fee before you pay; bigger ones can come with bonus credit.
- Want a brake? In the Top up tab click “Set a monthly limit”. When this month's AI spend reaches it, your agents pause and your team takes over.
