One turn, one price: model cost, plus a length surcharge, times memory depth, plus whatever actually ran.

Credits are called CGC. One CGC is A$0.01, and that rate is flat, so a pack's price in dollars is always its credit count divided by 100.

What a chat turn costs

A turn is priced in one pass, in this order:

This is one function, not a scattering of rules: getChatTurnCost at worker/src/pricing.ts:170. The interface computes the same number from the same formula, so the estimate you see cannot be lower than what you are charged.

The model's per-message cost. Every model in the picker shows its own. Two models genuinely cost 0.
A length surcharge. The first 100 tokens of reply length are included; each additional 100 adds +1 CGC.
The memory-depth multiplier. ×1 at or below the included memory baseline, ramping smoothly to ×2 at full depth. Applied to the running total from steps 1 and 2.
Flat surcharges, but only for what actually ran. Multi-character reply +2. Director +1. Evolution +1. Memory extraction +2.

Free really means free

There is deliberately no minimum charge. A 0-credit model at default settings costs exactly 0 CGC per message, forever. Source: worker/src/pricing.ts:161-168.

A free model starts costing something only when you opt into an extra: a longer reply, memory deeper than the baseline, a second speaker, or a director or evolution pass.

Where credits come from

Guests get zero free credits. The welcome credits are skipped entirely for anonymous sessions, and accounts created before the offer launched do not qualify either. Source: worker/src/freeIntro.ts:64-65.

The second 50 lands on a later day than the one you signed up on, so it cannot be collected in the same sitting. Source: worker/src/freeIntro.ts:88.

The welcome credits: 50 CGC the moment you register, then 50 more the first time you come back on a later day, 100 in total. Nothing decays and there is no deadline, so the second half is still there whether you return tomorrow or next month.
Credit packs: One-off purchases. See Store.
A subscription: A monthly allotment. See Plans and subscriptions.
Referrals: 25 CGC each to you and to the person you invited, up to 20 invitations.
Gifts: Someone can send you credits directly. See Gifts.

Watching an ad for credits

Buttons offering credits for watching an advertisement appear in several places, but the endpoint behind them is currently a stub that grants nothing. Do not count on them. Source: worker/src/routes/stubs.ts:382.
