succintly explain how the pricing and rate limits work.
Perfect! Now I have enough information. Let me provide a succinct explanation:
##Pricing & Rate Limits
Credit System:
- Users have two credit types: Standard and Premium
- Credits are consumed based on LLM token usage with a tiered cost:
- < 10K tokens = 1 credit
- 10K-50K tokens = 2 credits
-
50K tokens = 3 credits
Free Plan:
- 5 standard credits per day
Pro Plan:
- $10/month base
- 100 standard credits per day
- 200 premium credits per month ($5/month extra for 50-unit billing blocks)
Rate Limiting:
- Implemented via the billing system—users can't perform actions (like creating posts or comments) if they lack sufficient credits
- Errors thrown: "Insufficient credits. Please upgrade your plan."
- Premium users get higher credit allocation than standard users
The system is built on Autumn, a billing framework that tracks feature usage and enforces limits based on subscription tier.
