Credits
Soliloquest bills by usage, not subscription: a credit balance in dollars that play draws down. No monthly fee, nothing to cancel — see Pricing for the full philosophy.
What spends credits
Anything that asks the Storyteller to generate:
- Turns — replies, narration, autonomous play.
- Wizard suggestions — the ✦ Suggest buttons in campaign creation.
- Spoken narration, when enabled, and illustrations you generate.
Costs scale with how much the Storyteller reads and writes in a turn — typically a fraction of a cent each. A richer Storyteller tier spends faster. Plain oracle rolls (🎲 🔤 ⚡) and Vowbound move rolls are dice, not AI — they’re free, as is rereading, browsing, and exporting your story.
Your balance
- New accounts start with free credits — no card required.
- Your current balance, credit packs, and history all live in Settings → Credits & Billing.
Running out
When the balance is spent, a ⚠ notice appears:
You’re out of credits — your story is safe, but new turns are paused.
Nothing is lost — every word of your journal stays readable and exportable. New AI turns simply wait until you top up — buy more anytime in Settings → Credits & Billing.
