AI Credits are the units Builder uses to measure and allocate AI-powered features in Builder. These credits give you access to powerful generative AI capabilities including code generation, design generation, and Visual Editor AI Chat.
On August 14, 2025, Builder is introducing Agent credits, a smarter way to power your AI interactions that matches how Builder’s agent actually works.
- Credits do not roll over from month to month or from one plan to another in the event of a subscription change.
- New subscribers receive that plan's full credit allocation regardless of when they subscribe during the month.
- Both Fusion and Publish use the same credit system and pricing structure.
Builder requires credits for AI use in certain features. Here's where AI credit use applies in Builder:
| Feature | How credits are used | Available in |
|---|---|---|
Generate code within a Fusion Project | 1 credit per code generation | Fusion only |
1 credit per prompt | ||
1 credit per prompt | Publish only |
To upgrade from a free plan to a paid plan:
- Go to the Subscriptions tab under Settings.
- Choose a plan and then click Select and Customize.
- Adjust the limits for Number of seats, Volume (if using a Publish Space), and AI Credits.
- Add payment information.
- Review your plan
- Confirm and complete your payment.
Once payment is complete, your plan should immediately be upgraded.
Your credit limit depends on your plan. If you run out of credits, Builder shows a notification letting you know that you've used all your credits.
If you subscribe to a plan late in the month, you receive the full month's credits. Builder does not pro-rate or rollover credits from one plan to another nor from one billing cycle to the next.
Depending on your account type, you receive a certain number of free credits which reset on the first day of each calendar month.
- Free users get 10 AI Credits per day, with a total limit of 25 AI Credits per month. Daily credits reset at midnight UTC and monthly credits reset on the first day of each calendar month.
- Pro users get 100 AI Credits per month, which resets on the first day of each calendar month. Pro users can purchase additional credits to continue using AI features.
- Legacy Basic and Growth users can purchase additional credits to continue using AI features.
When you reach a paid plan's limit, you can increase the limit by editing your plan settings:
- Visit the Subscription tab under Settings page.
- Click Manage Plan followed by Edit or Change Plan.
- Adjust your current plan's limits for AI Credits.
- Add or confirm payment information.
- Review your plan
- Confirm and complete your payment.

Here's how bandwidth is allocated in relation to AI credits:
Fusion
- New users: 20 GB for every 100 AI Credits
- Existing users: 25 GB for every 100 additional credits
Publish
- Additional Visual Views must be purchased separately for increased bandwidth.
Sometimes, the Visual Editor AI might throw an error and provide a Regenerate button. If you click the Regenerate button when receiving this error, a credit is not deducted from your allotted credits.
To display your current credit usage, go to Space Settings followed by Subscription.
