Understanding Credits and Daily Limits
How ScaleBlogger credits work: monthly allowances by plan, what each AI action costs, autopilot spend and the daily article and AI scan limits.
Understanding Credits and Daily Limits
Credits are the single currency for AI work in ScaleBlogger. Each plan includes a monthly allowance, and every AI action deducts a fixed number of credits.
Monthly credits by plan
Growth 15, Pro 70, Business 180, Agency 600; Enterprise allowances are set per agreement.

Autopilot actions
One-click and autopilot actions spend credits exactly like the manual equivalents — an autopilot social post costs the same as one you write yourself. Autopilot requires a paid plan, and each opportunity lane (SEO, backlinks, AI search, social, outreach, engagement) has its own autonomy mode and a daily cap on executions, 5 per channel per day by default, so automated spend stays predictable.
Daily limits
- Articles per day — Growth 15, Pro 30, Business 50, Agency 100, Enterprise unlimited. When the daily cap is reached, generation resumes the next day.
- AI scans — on-demand AI visibility scans require a Business plan or above. Daily scan cadence is included with Enterprise, or available on Pro, Business and Agency through the Daily AI Scans add-on ($49/month).
- Per-channel caps — the autonomy daily cap limits how many autonomous actions each lane may run.
Tracking usage
The Billing screen shows credits used and monthly usage for the current cycle, and Usage (/usage) breaks consumption down in more detail. Running out of credits pauses AI actions until your next cycle or a plan change.
