- With a monthly plan credits are assigned for the current month.
- With an annual plan credits are distributed throughout the year month by month.
Extra purchased credits
If you need more operational capacity you can purchase additional credit packages.
These credits are useful for handling workload peaks more intensive projects or temporary team needs.
When credits are consumed

| Chat message | 2 |
| File attached in chat | 1 |

Order in which credits are used
When you perform an activity Groow uses credits following a specific order.
First the system uses:
- credits included in the plan
- promotional credits
- extra purchased credits
This approach ensures that credits already included in the subscription are used first leaving extra credits as a reserve.
Do credits expire?
It depends on the type of credit.
- Credits included in the plan follow the duration of the subscription period.
- Extra purchased credits do not expire.
- Promotional credits may follow specific conditions if applicable.
What happens if credits are not enough
If the available balance is not sufficient the operation is not started.
This prevents incomplete usage and ensures you always have control before an activity is executed.
Where you can check balance and usage
In the section dedicated to credit management you can see at any time:
- the total available credits
- remaining credits
- overall team consumption
- your personal consumption
- the history of transactions
This helps you understand how consumption is distributed and plan platform usage more effectively.
Some practical examples
Chat with attachment and web search
1 message + 1 attachment + 1 web search = 4 credits
Uploading a 10 page PDF
10 pages × 5 credits = 50 credits
Transcribing a 30 minute meeting
The cost is calculated proportionally to the actual duration of the meeting.
In summary
Groow’s credit system is designed to be simple transparent and flexible.
It allows you to:
- easily understand platform usage
- monitor team consumption
