Please show the exact number of remaining AI credits instead of only a percentage
I would like to give some feedback about the way AI credits are displayed.
When working extensively with AI to build projects, it is important to know exactly how many AI credits are available, how many have been consumed, and ideally how much each AI action costs.
At the moment, the interface shows me a percentage, but I cannot see the actual number of credits behind that percentage. For example, if I see 98%, I don’t know whether that represents 2,940 credits out of 3,000, 980 out of 1,000, or another amount. Without knowing the exact total and the exact remaining quantity, the percentage is not really a usable measurement.
This becomes particularly important because AI usage is not necessarily uniform. Some requests can be very small, while others can involve significant work inside the engine: modifying a project, creating systems, testing the game, fixing problems, etc.
In my case, I rely heavily on AI to develop projects. I therefore need to be able to plan my work around the available AI resources.
With only a percentage, I cannot properly:
-
estimate how much a request costs;
-
compare the cost of different types of tasks;
-
estimate how many tasks I can still perform;
-
organize a development session around my remaining credits;
-
understand how efficiently I am using the AI;
-
verify the amount of credits actually provided by my subscription.
I also find that displaying only a percentage creates an unnecessary feeling of pressure when using the AI. I don’t think this is necessary, and I don’t think it is the best way to communicate a resource that users are paying for.
A simple display such as:
2,940 / 3,000 AI credits remaining
would already solve most of this problem.
Even better would be an optional usage history showing something like:
Request → credits consumed → credits remaining
The percentage could still be displayed, but it should be an additional indicator, not the only information available.
I was honestly very disappointed to discover that I could not see the actual quantity of AI credits available to me. For users who rely heavily on AI as part of their development workflow, the exact credit balance is basic and useful information.
I am not asking for more credits. I am asking for visibility and a minimum level of transparency that allows users to calculate and manage the credits they already have.
Thank you.
