Credits and AI Tokens

ZynfoAI operates on a transparent, usage-based credit system. Every time your AI agent performs a cognitive action, a small amount of credits (AI Tokens) is consumed from your account balance.

How Credits are Consumed

Credits are primarily utilized by two core system actions:
  1. Data Ingestion: When you add a new URL or document to your Knowledge Base, the system uses tokens to read, chunk, and mathematically generate vector embeddings for that text.
  2. Chat Generation: Every time a user asks a question, the AI agent uses tokens to run a semantic vector search and generate a highly accurate response using a Large Language Model (LLM).

Monitoring Your Token Balance

Navigate to the Credits dashboard page (/credits) to:
  • View your current available token balance.
  • See your historical token usage trends.
  • Set up low-balance email alerts so your AI agent never goes offline unexpectedly due to insufficient credits.
