What are Qoder Credits?

Users don’t have unlimited access to premium large language models. Instead, there’s a quota system based on credits. Credits represent the resource quota consumed by AI when performing tasks. In Qoder, the following user requests will consume Credits:
  • Inline Chat
  • Ask Mode
  • Agent Mode
  • Quest Mode
  • Repo Wiki
Keep in mind that the number of Credits used can vary depending on the complexity of the task and the specific premium model involved. For a detailed breakdown of how Credits are consumed for different tasks, check out our Task and Credits Consumption Guide.

How to deduct the Credits?

Credits acquired at different times have varying expiration dates. Our system automatically uses the credits that are set to expire first, ensuring you maximize the value of your credits. Even when a user has used up their quota for premium models, i.e. their credits have been depleted, we still provide a limited daily allowance of basic model calls. This ensures that our users can continue to use our product’s core features without interruption.

Error

Failed Qoder model requests do not result in Credits deductions. Credits are only consumed when a model API call is successful.

Task and Credits Consumption Guide

Different tasks require different models, each with its own associated costs. To address this, we’ve analyzed the resource consumption of our users’ online activities. Based on this data, we’ve established a correlation between the usage of various models and credits consumption. This approach helps our users better understand how we calculate and deduct credits for different operations.
For example, a single Ask user request might use an premium large language model, consuming a certain number of Input and Output Tokens. The credits deducted are calculated based on the model used and the total token consumption for both input and output. When User send a Agent user request, it often involves multiple premium model calls behind the scenes. As a result, it uses significantly more resources than a simple Ask user request. The same goes for Quest mode. As for Repo Wiki, the resource consumption is measured based on the model inference required to generate a knowledge base for a specific code repository.
The values shown in the table are just estimates based on our statistical analysis. Actual credits deductions may vary and will be based on real-time usage. We’re also working on optimizations to ensure we can get the same work done while using fewer resources.
Median (50K context window)Median (200K context window)
Ask~ 3 Credits / User Request~ 4 Credits / User Request
Agent~ 7 Credits / User Request~ 12 Credits / User Request
Quest/~ 100 Credits / Quest Task
Repo Wiki/~ 50 Credits / Repository
Note: In the future, as we roll out new features, we may update our credits consumption rates based on the resources these features require. This means the number of credits deducted for certain actions might change to reflect the actual resource usage of new functionalities.

Usage

You can view your credits history and current usage through the Usage dashboard.

Checking Your Credits Usage

Log in to the Qoder website. Click on your avatar in the top-right corner. Navigate to Settings > Usage Here, you’ll find information about your current Plan, as well as the available and used credits in your resource package. image.png
  • Credits Usage Priority: We prioritize expiring credits first. For credits with the same expiration date, we use plan credits before add-on credits.
  • Credits Expiration: Different types of credits have their own expiration dates. You can view the theoretical expiration dates in the credits log. (Note that actual expiration may occur earlier due to factors like account upgrades. For more details, please refer to the credits log documentation.)
Credits obtained through your Plan are valid for the duration of your current subscription period. These Credits will automatically reset to zero when your subscription period ends.

Credits Log: Credits History and Tracking

The credits acquisition history provides a comprehensive record of all credits received, including the reason for acquisition, the amount, and the effective and expiration dates. This allows you to easily track your credit sources. image.png Important Note on Expiration Dates:
Please be aware that the expiration dates shown in the credits log are based on the initial projection at the time of issuance. Actual expiration dates may change due to account upgrades or other factors. To determine the true expiration date, you’ll need to consider your Plan change history.
Remember, the credits log only shows the history of credits acquisitions. To check your current available credits usage, please refer to the ‘Credits Usage’ card in your account dashboard.
