# Pay for what you post.

Every plan includes all networks, managed keys (no setup) and unlimited connected accounts. You buy **credits** and spend them as you post: 1 credit per post, X costs more (it's the only platform that charges us). Save 25 percent on annual.

## How credits work

- **1** credit per post to any network except X
- **6** credits per post to X (text). X is the only platform that charges per post, so we meter it.
- **72** credits per X post that contains a link (X bills these at ~13x the rate of plain text)

Monthly credits refresh each cycle. Run low? Top up any time with a **credit pack** that never expires, or just stay pay-as-you-go with packs alone, no subscription needed.

Credit packs: 1,400 credits / $9 · 7,000 credits / $39 · 44,000 credits / $199.

## Common questions

### What's a credit?

A credit is what you spend to publish a post. One post to any network except X costs 1 credit. A post to X costs 6 credits (72 if it contains a link), because X is the only platform that charges per post. A multi-platform post spends credits for each platform it goes to. You're only charged for posts that actually publish. Failed sends are free.

### Do monthly credits roll over?

Monthly plan credits refresh at the start of each billing cycle and don't roll over. Credits you buy as a one-off pack never expire, so they're always there as a backup. When you post, your monthly credits are spent first.

### Do you charge extra for X (Twitter)?

No surprise bills. X's per-post cost is already built into the credit pricing (that's why X posts cost more credits). We manage the X connection for you. There are no separate developer keys to set up and no separate invoice.

### Is there a free tier?

Yes. The Free plan gives you 20 credits a month for every network except X (which needs a paid plan or a credit pack), with unlimited connected accounts and full MCP access. No card required.
