## Our pricing ethos

1. **01 · FIXED CREDITS PER FUNCTION. Know the credit cost of each function.** Credits are metered strictly by verified cryptographic function. The schedule below lists the fixed credit cost for each of Chinwag's six core functions.
2. **02 · YOUR MODEL ACCOUNTS. Your model providers bill AI usage separately.** Keep using your own model accounts. Chinwag adds no markup to AI token usage. Your Chinwag credits cover the verified cryptographic functions listed below.
3. **03 · ONE ORGANIZATION CREDIT POOL. Share one balance across your organization.** Your GitHub Organization or GitLab Group draws from one shared Organization Credit Pool. Choose a pack by its credit total and price per credit.
