How Do AI Credits Work?
Learn how AI credits work in ExamLive. Track your balance and request history on the Usage page, and top up whenever you run low.
What credits pay for
Credits fund everything that calls an AI model: chatting with the assistant, generating questions, and building tests. Everything else, creating tests, grading, monitoring, taking tests, never touches your balance.
Watching your balance
The Usage page has an AI Credits view showing a used-versus-remaining bar with exact figures on hover, total tokens in and out, and a filterable Usage History table listing each request with its model, token counts, and cost. A month picker narrows the window. The same balance is visible inside the AI panel while you chat.
Topping up
Click Get more on the Usage page to buy additional credit through checkout. The new balance shows up as soon as the purchase completes.
When you run out
AI requests stop with an explicit out-of-credits message in the panel until you top up. Nothing else about your organization changes.
Model choice affects cost
Stronger models generally cost more per request. ExamLive picks the model for each request automatically and switches to a fallback when the primary model is rate-limited.
