AI credits & usage

A monthly AI budget that powers processing — with a full ledger.

What credits pay for

Embeddings, vision analysis, transcription — the AI work Cortex does on your content. Every plan includes a monthly budget that resets each cycle; Settings shows the percentage used and a full history of what was processed.

Bring your own OpenRouter API key in Settings and heavy processing bills your key directly instead of your Cortex credits.
