Advanced Credit Rules
Effective Date: September 12, 2024
To better support features with varying cost levels and enhance the flexibility of Monica's pricing plans, we've introduced advanced credits. These credits allow you to use Monica more extensively, maximizing your productivity.
Monthly Advanced Credits for Monica Subscription Plans
Advanced credits are exclusively available to subscribers. Without a Monica subscription, you won't be able to earn or use these credits. Subscribers receive a fixed amount of advanced credits monthly, in addition to the high-level queries included in their plan. These credits enable access to more advanced features and reset on the first day of each month.
| Subscription Plan | Basic Queries | Advanced Queries | Extra Advanced Credits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 40/day | 0 | 0 |
| Pro | 5,000/month | 200/month | 1,500/month |
| Pro + | 10,000/month | 400/month | 3,000/month |
| Unlimited | Unlimited* | Unlimited* | 4,500/month |
* The Unlimited plan includes a set number of high-speed queries. Once exhausted, model response speed and service availability may be affected. See pricing page for details.
If you run out of advanced credits, you can purchase more using the following pricing structure. Purchase here
| Credits | Price |
|---|---|
| 4,000 | US$ 10 |
| 12,000 | US$ 30 |
| 40,000 | US$ 100 |
Enhanced Image Generation
We've updated our image generation counting method to better support various models. Instead of counting "image generation instances," we now use "advanced credit consumption." Different models require varying amounts of advanced credits per image. For example, generating one image with the SDXL model consumes 3 advanced credits. This change allows you to generate more images using your monthly advanced credits.
The table below shows the number of images each subscription plan can generate (assuming all advanced credits are used for image generation):
| Subscription Plan | Previous (SDXL model) | Current (SDXL model) |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 0 | 4 (limited trial) |
| Pro | 200 | 500 |
| Pro + | 400 | 1000 |
| Unlimited | 600 | 1500 |
Chat Context Management
We understand that some users desire better control over chat context and more in-depth responses. With the introduction of advanced credits, we can now meet this need. Monica now offers two modes for context management: "Smart Trimming" and "Custom Limit". You can easily switch between these in the chat settings as needed.
Smart Trimming (Default)
In this mode, we intelligently trim context based on chat content to ensure you have a good chat experience most of the time. This mode consumes regular and advanced query counts depending on the selected model.
Custom Limit
This mode allows you to either retain the full context or set a manual trimming limit to control advanced credit usage. Available only to members, it consumes advanced credits per query. For detailed pricing, see our Credit Consumption Rules. Monitor your usage anytime on the Billing Management page.
Important Notes:
- Monica's system prompts also count towards context length; disable unnecessary chat skills to reduce usage.
- Longer conversations use more context; start new chats periodically to manage consumption.
- Actual context capacity varies by model and is subject to technical limitations (For example, GPT-4o has a context limit of 128k).
Enhanced ChatPDF
The introduction of advanced credits has significantly improved ChatPDF functionality. We've launched a full-text reading mode, allowing the model to access complete original content during conversations without any trimming. This upgrade substantially enhances answer quality and accuracy. With full-text reading mode enabled, ChatPDF's chat context capability exceeds the 100k character limit. Please note that using this mode consumes advanced credits. Refer to the "Advanced Credit Consumption Table" below for detailed billing rules.

Text Generation and Processing
Note: Text generation and processing only consume advanced credits when specific settings are enabled. A token is a unique text length calculation unit for LLMs, with varying token-to-text length ratios across different models. Generally, 1 token equals one word (in languages like English or French) or one character (in languages like Japanese or Chinese).

Personal Center Interface Update
Starting from version 6.2.0, the Monica plugin's personal center will display advanced credit information according to the new rules. Users of older versions (pre-6.2.0) should note that while the new credit rules are in effect, the old user interface may not accurately reflect this. For example, image generation features will consume advanced credits, but this won't be displayed in the old user interface.
