AI Credits

Credits are what AI work is charged in. Using the dashboard is free; only AI doing work costs anything.

Two buckets, and they behave differently

Where fromYour monthly planA top-up lot
At renewalReset — unused ones expireKept, forever
SpentFirstSecond

Plan credits are spent first on purpose: they are the ones with an expiry date, so spending them first is what stops them going to waste.

What each plan includes, monthly

Professional3,000

Enterprise25,000

Top-up lots

Buy separately when you run out mid-month, or if you are on the free trial. These never expire. Small (250), Medium (500), Large (1,500), Bulk (5,000).

Estimates, not a price list. Long conversations, repeated revisions and big pages use more. A one-word change is free or nearly.

What is always free

  • Reading anything — previews, enquiries, visits, invoices
  • Deploying, taking a site down, connecting a domain
  • Downloading your code (paid plans, but no credits)
  • Everything an AI assistant does through a connector — see Using Laabam.site from ChatGPT

That last one is the big one. When ChatGPT writes a site and uploads it, no Laabam.site credits are spent, because no Laabam.site agent ran. You already paid OpenAI for that work.

Credit history

Every grant, build and refund, with what it was for. If a number looks wrong, this page is where the answer is — and if it still looks wrong, send us the row.

Running out

Builds stop. Your website stays up, your enquiries keep arriving, your dashboard keeps working. Top up, or wait for your plan to renew.

Worth topping up before starting a big build rather than during one.

Refunds

A build that fails through our fault is refunded automatically, and the refund appears in your credit history. You do not need to ask.
