Generating media
Budgets and credit
Who pays for generating, and the limits that apply.
Generating images, video and audio, and asking Living Stories, are paid calls to AI services. Each call is paid in one of these ways, in this order:
- Your own keys. Add them on your account page. Your own key always comes first.
- The organisation's keys, for stories that belong to an organisation that has them.
- Free credit of an organisation set up with an invite code.
If none of these applies, the call is refused with a message that says why.
Limits
- Monthly limits apply per person and per organisation. If you reach yours, ask an admin to raise it.
- Running jobs count at their estimated cost until they finish, so two calls can't both slip under a limit.
- A call over a limit is refused with a clear message, and nothing is charged.
- A failed generation costs nothing.
See what you spent
Your account page shows what you spent this month and in total. When an organisation's free credit runs low, Living Stories shows how much is left.
