Know the cost before generating
Ask Surfstats can estimate the workflow before you choose a plan.
Describe what you want to make. Ask Surfstats recommends the tools and shows an estimated credit cost for each paid action, a running subtotal, and an estimated total. Final charges still depend on the model, duration, output count and settings you choose in each tool.

Plan guardrails
Compare what each plan allows
These values are read from SurfStats' current GenerationLimits configuration so production overrides are reflected here.
Credits are still charged per generation/request, not per queue slot.

How credits behave
- Welcome credits: 40 one-time credits after email confirmation.
- Subscription credits: refresh monthly and unused subscription-cycle credits do not roll over.
- Annual subscriptions: bill up front but still grant credits monthly.
- Credit packs: top-up credits do not expire by default.
- Failed generation: eligible failed jobs use SurfStats' existing refund logic so credits can be restored automatically.
Billing & account management
- Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled.
- FastSpring handles secure checkout and payment confirmation.
- Signed SurfStats checkout tags assign purchases to the correct workspace.
- Authenticated users can manage billing email, plan and customer-portal access from in-app Pricing.
- See the Refund Policy before purchasing if refund eligibility matters to your decision.
Frequently asked questions
Credits, subscriptions and top-ups
The practical details customers normally need before choosing a plan.
Yes. A new user receives 40 one-time welcome credits after confirming their email address. Those credits can be used to test supported credit-based AI workflows before choosing a subscription.
Credits are the billing unit for AI-powered work such as text generation, images, character content, video, lip sync, voiceovers and other provider-backed actions. Cost varies by operation, provider, model, duration, resolution and output count. SurfStats shows a credit estimate before generation wherever the workflow supports it.
Use Ask Surfstats. Describe the result you want and SurfStats will recommend the workflow and estimate the credits for each paid action. Treat it as a planning estimate until the final model, duration, quality and output count are selected.
No. Subscription credits are tied to the current monthly credit cycle. Monthly-plan credits expire at the end of that cycle. Annual-plan credits also refresh monthly, and unused subscription credits expire at the end of each monthly cycle.
Not by default. SurfStats stores credit-pack/top-up grants without an expiry date unless that policy is explicitly changed later. This is different from subscription-cycle credits, which expire at the end of their monthly cycle.
The current annual plans charge once for 12 months of access at the equivalent of 11 monthly payments. Credits are not granted as one giant annual bucket; the configured plan allowance is refreshed each monthly cycle while the annual subscription remains active.
No. A credit pack increases your available credit balance but does not change your plan tier, parallel-job limits, batch limits, per-job caps or other plan guardrails. Upgrade the subscription when you need higher plan limits as well as more recurring credits.
Yes. Paid subscriptions renew automatically through FastSpring unless cancelled. When you cancel, access normally remains active until the end of the paid period. Account-management options are available from the authenticated Pricing/Billing area.
Refund eligibility depends on the purchase type, timing and usage. First-time subscriptions and unused credit packs may qualify under the published conditions, while renewal rules are narrower. Read the full Refund Policy for the current terms.
Most SurfStats generation remains credit-based. Studio Max Unlimited adds a separate promotional Unlimited* lane for Veo 3.1 Lite 720p video-only 4/6/8-second drafts through October 31, 2026. Fair-use and capacity controls apply; after unusually high monthly use or while the included parallel allowance is busy, qualifying jobs continue using normal credits rather than being blocked. Other models, audio generation, extensions, upscales and tools continue to use normal credits.
Not sure which plan?
Describe one real project first.
Ask Surfstats will tell you which tools to use and estimate the credits action by action. That gives you a more useful plan choice than guessing from a generic generation count.
