Reforma credits
Understand AI charges, check your balance, and see when credits reset.
Credits pay for AI work supplied by Reforma. Each workspace has one balance, shared by its members. Open Billing → Overview to see the remaining balance and the next reset date.
What uses credits?
Credits cover chat on Reforma models, image generation, and other AI work carried out for your request. The amount depends on the models used and how much work they do, including how much text they read and generate.
There is no fixed number of credits per message. Charges round up to whole credits, so even a small amount of AI work supplied by Reforma can cost 1 credit. The charge appears on the assistant reply once usage is recorded; it may appear shortly after the reply itself.
Why were credits used with my own account?
Your ChatGPT plan or API key pays for chat requests sent through that account. It does not cover every AI feature in Reforma.
Image generation always uses Reforma credits, including with a ChatGPT connection or your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google API key. Some supporting AI features, such as naming a new chat, also use credits.
For example, you ask Reforma to build a page and generate an illustration while using your ChatGPT plan. The chat counts toward your ChatGPT usage, while the illustration spends Reforma credits.
Can a stopped request still use credits?
Yes. If you stop a request or it ends with an error, AI work already performed can still use credits. Check the charge on the assistant reply or open Billing → Credits usage to see recorded charges.
Included and purchased credits
| Included credits | Purchased credits | |
|---|---|---|
| Where they come from | Your plan's monthly allowance | Buy credits on Pro |
| When they expire | Unused credits expire at the monthly reset | They do not expire |
| When they are spent | First | After included credits run out |
Owners and admins on Pro can buy extra credits in Billing. The available packs and prices are shown there. Credits are added after payment succeeds.
On Free, upgrade to Pro to buy extra credits. See Pricing and plans for included allowances.
When do included credits reset?
Included credits reset monthly on the date shown in Billing → Overview, including on annual Pro. That date is separate from the yearly subscription renewal.
Unused included credits do not roll over. Purchased credits stay in your balance through the reset.
If you upgrade while already on a paid plan, leftover included credits stay, and Reforma grants a full new monthly allowance on top. The next monthly reset expires any unused included credits. See Pricing and plans for plan changes.
What happens when credits run out?
You cannot start a new chat request on Reforma models until you have credits again. A request already in progress can also stop if it needs more credits to continue.
On Pro, buy extra credits or wait for the monthly reset. On Free, upgrade or wait for the reset. The rest of the editor remains available.
Chat requests on your own connected model can start without Reforma credits, subject to your provider's limits. Features that require credits, including image generation, remain unavailable.
Where can I see usage?
Open Billing → Credits usage to see credit additions, purchases, charges, and expiries. Chat charges identify the member who used the credits. Some supporting AI work may appear without a member attached.
If you use your own account, check that provider's usage page for requests billed there. Reforma's credit history shows workspace credit activity.
Does MCP use Reforma credits?
Connecting Cursor, Claude, Codex, or another client to Reforma MCP runs on that client's model and does not use Reforma credits for its conversation.
The workspace must be on Pro, and you need an Owner, Admin, or Editor role. See Connect.
