Usage Stats — Four Cards

Four stat cards showing your current AI consumption:

📤 This Month Requests — how many AI requests you've made this calendar month.
🪙 This Month Tokens — total tokens consumed this month (input + output combined).
📈 Total Requests — lifetime count of all AI requests since account creation.
💰 This Month Cost — the total credits consumed by AI this month. This comes from your AI Quota pool.

🚦
Your Limits

Two cards showing your account's AI limits:

📋 Requests per Day — maximum number of AI requests you can make per day (e.g. 500). This prevents accidental runaway usage.
📋 Monthly Token Limit — maximum tokens you can consume per month. Shows "Unlimited" if no cap is set.

Below the limits, Features Available shows which AI capabilities are enabled: ✅ Streaming (real-time AI responses), ❌ Vision (image analysis — not available), ✅ Audio (speech-to-text via Whisper).

⚙️ Your Preferences — What each setting does
🧠 Default Text Model

The AI model used for text conversations (the AI assistant, prompt generators, AI wizards). Dropdown with options:

🟢 Claude Haiku 4-5 [Recommended] — fast, affordable, great for everyday tasks. Best balance of quality and cost.
🔵 Claude Sonnet 4-6 — more capable, better at complex reasoning. Costs ~3x more than Haiku.
🟣 Claude Opus 4-6 — the most powerful model. Best for complex analysis and creative work. Costs ~5x more than Haiku.
🟠 GPT-4o — OpenAI's model. Alternative for users who prefer it. Mid-range pricing.
GPT-4o Mini — OpenAI's lightweight model. Cheapest text option available.

💡 Start with Claude Haiku 4-5. It's the recommended default — fast, cheap, and good enough for most tasks. Switch to a more powerful model only when you need deeper analysis or more creative output.

🎤 Default Audio Model (Speech-to-Text)

The model used when you speak to the AI assistant instead of typing. Currently only one option: Whisper [Recommended]. Whisper converts your voice to text, then the text model processes it. Charged per minute of audio at 0.0090 credits/min.

🔊 Default TTS Model (Text-to-Speech)

The model used when the AI reads its response aloud to you. Two options:

🟢 TTS Standard [Recommended] — good quality, half the cost of HD.
🔵 TTS HD — higher quality voice output, but 2x the cost.

💡 Use TTS Standard unless you specifically need higher audio quality.

🗣️ Default TTS Voice

Choose the voice character for text-to-speech output. Multiple options available (e.g. Nova — Warm, friendly female voice). Pick whichever voice you find most comfortable to listen to. This doesn't affect cost — only the sound.

💰 Your Monthly Spending Limit

A safety cap on how many credits AI can consume per month. Set a number in credits — when the limit is reached, AI stops working until next month. Set 0 for no limit.

💡 This is your personal safety net. If you're new, set a limit (e.g. 5 or 10 credits) until you understand how much AI costs for your usage pattern. You can always increase it later.

🌍 Preferred AI Language

The language the AI responds in by default (e.g. Greek). ⚠️ Important cost note: non-Latin languages (Greek, Chinese, Arabic, etc.) use 2–3x more tokens than English for the same content. This means AI responses in Greek cost more than the same response in English. See the token cost section below for details.

🔘 Toggle Switches

🔵 Auto-apply AI suggestions — when ON, AI suggestions are applied automatically without asking for confirmation. When OFF, you review and apply manually.
🔵 Show token usage — when ON, you see the token count and cost after each AI interaction. Recommended to keep this ON while you learn the system.

📝 Default System Prompt (optional)

A text box where you can write custom instructions that are sent to the AI with every conversation. For example: "Always respond in simple Greek" or "Focus on 3D printing topics." This is optional — leave it empty if you don't need it.

💾 After changing any setting, click the blue 💾 Save Preferences button at the bottom. Nothing is saved until you press this button.
💡 Understanding Tokens & Costs — How AI charging works
What is a token?

A token is a piece of text that AI models process. On average, 1 token ≈ 0.75 words (or ~4 characters in English). For example: "Hello world" = 2 tokens, "Artificial Intelligence" = 2–3 tokens.

Input vs Output

Every AI interaction has two parts:
🔵 Input = what you send (your question/prompt). Costs less per token.
🔴 Output = what AI generates (the response). Costs more per token.

The total cost is: (input tokens × input price) + (output tokens × output price).

📝 Example: "Write me a joke in 100 words"

Using Claude Haiku 4-5:
Your prompt (~10 words) ≈ ~15 tokens input
AI response (~100 words) ≈ ~135 tokens output
💰 Total cost: ~0.0014 credits
(Input: 0.0000 + Output: 0.0014)

That's extremely cheap. You could send hundreds of messages like this for a single credit.

Credits explained

1 credit = 10,000 credit units. Prices shown in the pricing table are final user prices (they already include the platform's markup). Your AI Quota balance is measured in credits — the same credits you transfer from MAIN Quota.

🌍 Language & Token Cost — Important for Greek users

Different languages use different amounts of tokens for the same content. Non-Latin scripts (Greek, Chinese, Arabic, etc.) typically use more tokens than English.

🇬🇧 English
~1 token per 4 characters
~0.75 words per token
Baseline cost
🇬🇷 Greek (Ελληνικά)
~1 token per 1–2 characters
~0.25–0.35 words per token
~2–3x more tokens
📝 Same message in different languages
🇬🇧 "Hello, how are you today?" → ~7 tokens → 1x cost
🇬🇷 "Γεια σου, πώς είσαι σήμερα;" → ~18 tokens → ~2.5x cost
🇫🇷 "Bonjour, comment allez-vous aujourd'hui?" → ~10 tokens → ~1.4x cost
🇪🇸 "Hola, ¿cómo estás hoy?" → ~9 tokens → ~1.3x cost

⚠️ This means using AI in Greek costs roughly 2–3 times more than the same interaction in English. This is not a platform markup — it's how AI tokenization works. All AI providers (Anthropic, OpenAI) tokenize non-Latin scripts the same way. It's a technical characteristic of how language models process text.

💎 AI Model Pricing — How to read the table

The pricing table at the bottom of the page shows exactly how much each AI model costs. All prices are in credits and include the platform's markup. Here's how to read it:

📊 Table columns explained
📌 Model — the AI model name. Models are grouped by provider: Anthropic (Claude family) and OpenAI (GPT family).
🔵 Input / 1K — cost in credits for 1,000 input tokens (what you send). This is the small number.
🔴 Output / 1K — cost in credits for 1,000 output tokens (what AI generates). This is always higher than input.
🔵 Input / 1M — same as Input/1K but per million tokens. Easier to compare across models.
🔴 Output / 1M — same as Output/1K but per million tokens. The red numbers show these clearly.
🏷️ Type — what the model does: Text (conversations), Tts (text-to-speech), or Audio (speech-to-text).
🏆 Quick model comparison (text models)
💚 Cheapest: GPT-4o Mini — Input 0.3 / Output 1.2 per 1M tokens. Good for simple questions.
🟢 Best value: Claude Haiku 4-5 [Recommended] — Input 2.0 / Output 10.0 per 1M. Excellent quality at low cost.
🔵 Mid-range: GPT-4o — Input 5.0 / Output 20.0 per 1M. Claude Sonnet 4-6 — Input 6.0 / Output 30.0 per 1M.
🟣 Most powerful: Claude Opus 4-6 — Input 10.0 / Output 50.0 per 1M. 5x the cost of Haiku. Use only when you need top-tier reasoning.
🧮 Practical cost examples (Claude Haiku 4-5, in English)
💬
Short question + short answer (10 words in, 50 words out) ≈ 0.0007 credits. You could ask ~1,400 questions like this for 1 credit.
📝
Medium conversation (50 words in, 200 words out) ≈ 0.003 credits. About 330 conversations per credit.
📄
Long detailed response (100 words in, 500 words out) ≈ 0.007 credits. About 140 interactions per credit.
🇬🇷
Same interactions in Greek — multiply the above costs by ~2.5x due to token expansion.
🚀 Recommended setup for new users
1
Default Text Model → Claude Haiku 4-5. Best balance of quality and cost.
2
Default Audio Model → Whisper (only option).
3
Default TTS Model → TTS Standard. Half the cost of HD with good quality.
4
Monthly Spending Limit → set 5–10 credits while you learn. Increase later when you're comfortable.
5
Show token usage → keep ON. You'll see exactly how much each interaction costs, which helps you understand spending patterns.

🔄 Where AI credits come from

AI costs are charged from your AI Quota pool (the middle card on the MyQuota page). To have AI credits, you first buy a Usage Pack (credits go to MAIN Quota), then transfer some from MAIN to AI Quota using the "Μεταφορά από MAIN" button. The AI consumes from the AI pool automatically — each action deducts the exact cost shown in the pricing table. If your AI Quota reaches 0, AI features stop until you transfer more from MAIN.

⚠️
Important: AI costs are consumed in real-time and are non-refundable. Every AI interaction — even if the answer isn't what you expected — deducts tokens from your AI Quota. Use the Monthly Spending Limit to protect yourself from accidental over-usage, especially when getting started.
💡
Tip: If you want to save on AI costs, write shorter, more specific prompts. Long vague questions produce long vague answers — which consume more tokens. A precise 10-word question gets a precise answer at a fraction of the cost. Also consider using English for AI interactions where possible — the same content in English costs 2–3x less in tokens than in Greek.
