AI credits: what they are and how they work
AI credits power Minvy's AI features. Premium users start with 1,000 welcome credits.
AI credits are the currency for Minvy's AI-powered features. Each time you use an AI feature, a small number of credits is deducted from your balance. Credits are separate from your Premium subscription — the subscription unlocks the AI features; credits power each use.
Your welcome credits New Premium subscribers receive 1,000 welcome credits automatically. These are added to your account as soon as your subscription activates.
What costs credits
- Simple AI suggestions (e.g. auto-filling an item title from a photo) — low credit cost
- AI-powered receipt OCR (parsing complex receipts with multiple line items) — higher credit cost
- Other AI-assisted operations — cost varies by complexity

Buying more credits Additional credits can be purchased from Settings > AI Credits > Buy Credits. They never expire.
Tip: On-device features like barcode scanning and basic OCR use no AI credits — credits are only consumed by cloud AI operations.
