Understanding Credits and Daily Limits
Learn how the credit system works, including daily limits, credit allocation, and the calendar-driven approach to content generation.
Credit System Overview
ScaleBlogger uses a credit-based system to manage content generation. Credits are consumed when AI generates content, and limits help ensure sustainable usage.
Plan Credits Overview
| Plan | Monthly Credits | Price | Ideas Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Growth | 15 | $49/mo | 45 ideas |
| Pro | 70 | $199/mo | 210 ideas |
| Business | 180 | $499/mo | 540 ideas |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom | Unlimited |
Note: We no longer offer a free plan. All new users start with a paid subscription. We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee on all plans.
How Credits Work
Credit Consumption
- Each article generation consumes credits based on length and complexity
- Brief generation uses fewer credits than full article writing
- Image generation and enhancements may use additional credits
Credit Allocation
- Credits are allocated based on your subscription plan
- Monthly credits reset at the start of each billing cycle
- Rollover rules apply based on your plan (see below)
Credit Rollover Rules
Unused monthly credits carry over to the next month:
- Growth: 100% rollover, max 15 credits
- Pro: 100% rollover, max 70 credits
- Business: 100% rollover, max 180 credits
- Enterprise: Unlimited rollover
Daily Limits System
The daily limits system is calendar-driven, meaning:
Calendar as Source of Truth
The content calendar determines what gets processed each day. The system:
- Looks at scheduled calendar slots for today
- Processes only what is scheduled
- Respects your configured daily limits
Safety Limits
Daily limits protect against:
- Unexpected credit depletion
- Processing backlogs
- System overload
Configuring Limits
In your website settings, you can set:
- Maximum articles per day - How many articles can be generated
- Maximum briefs per day - How many briefs can be created
- Social posts per day - Social media automation limits
Credit Status
Check your credit status in the dashboard:
- Available credits - Ready to use
- Reserved credits - Allocated to pending work
- Used credits - Consumed this period
