- Free Plan: 400 + (100 × 30 days) = 3,400 credits/month - Not enough
- Creator Plan: 10,000 credits/month from $10/mo (billed annually) - Perfect fit
Marketing Agency (35,000 credits/month)
- Creator Plan: 10,000 credits + 25 credit packs = $10 + $75 = $85/month
- Pro Plan: 30,000 credits + 5 credit packs = $30 + $15 = $45/month - Better value
Enterprise (200,000 credits/month)
- Pro Plan: 30,000 + 170 credit packs = $30 + $510 = $540/month
- Business Plan: 70,000 credits + 130 credit packs = $66 + $390 = $456/month - Much better value
