How credits and quotas work

SearchOps uses a few separate allowances rather than one pot. Keeping them separate means heavy scanning never eats into your keyword tracking, and you always know what each part of your plan covers.

The allowances

Scan credits are spent when you run a geo-grid scan, at one credit per grid point. So a 5x5 scan costs 25 credits and a 7x7 costs 49. They reset to your plan's monthly allowance at each renewal. See Run your first geo-grid scan.

Keyword slots cap how many keywords you track at once. A slot is used only while a keyword is active, and tracking does not cost credits. See Keyword slots explained.

AI credits power the agent features, such as generating images for posts. They are a separate monthly balance from scan credits.

Connected profiles and locations are capped by your plan. See How many profiles can I connect?.

Resets and rollover

Scan credits and AI credits refresh at the start of each billing cycle and do not roll over. Whatever you have not used resets to the plan allowance, so plan your scanning across the month rather than saving it all for the end.

Running low

SearchOps flags you when an allowance is getting close. Your options are to prioritize what matters most this cycle, free up keyword slots by deactivating terms, top up AI credits if you need more agent runs, or upgrade for a larger monthly allowance.

A scan that fails refunds its credits automatically, and a scheduled run that lands when your balance is too low is skipped rather than charged.
