Start with 10,000 credits, on us

When you create a Chief account, your first 10,000 credits are on us. Credits are what Chief spends as it works — chatting, processing files, and running its intelligence. You don’t pay anything to get started.

The Explore plan

New accounts land on the free Explore plan at $0/month. On Explore you:
  • Get 10,000 credits for registering.
  • Get free credits that refill at 300/day, so your balance tops back up over time.
  • Can buy additional credits as needed if you want more headroom.
ℹ️ Good to Know: Free daily-refill credits and purchased credits behave differently. Some features — like Deep Intelligence — require a paid subscription regardless of your credit balance.

When you need more

If you run low, you’ll see your balance and a prompt to refill. Paid plans (such as Go Pro) add a monthly credit allotment, credit refill bonuses, and other benefits; the top tier is Enterprise Unlimited. You can review options on the pricing page.
🚀 Pro-Tip: You can check your remaining credits anytime from the prompt bar — open the Command Center with the + button (or ⌘K) and look at “Credit Balance,” which shows your remaining credits.

FAQ

You’ll see an “Out of credits” message with your current balance and a “Refill Credits” button. On the free plan you can also wait for credits to refill, since they top up daily.
Guests are prompted to create an account to keep using Chief and get 10,000 credits. Sign up with your email or Google and the credits are added to your new account.
