Pay as you go · no subscription

One credit, one dollar.

One credit is one hour of video. Buy credits up front and spend them when you like: saving videos, notes, monitors, newsletters. No subscription, no monthly fee, nothing billed after the fact. A pack is valid 3 months, and every new account starts with 3 free credits.

Launch promotion

Until 31 December 2026, a credit costs $1. The 10-credit pack is $10, its launch price; the 20 and 50 packs and the Team plan come with 50% more credits. The sticker stays $1.50: the launch is a promotion, and it ends on that date.

The meter

One credit is one hour of video.

Saving a video is what costs the credit. Once a video is saved, notes on it are cheap: one credit writes about ten standard notes on a one-hour video. The app shows the price before you run anything.

ActionCosts
Save a videoreads the spoken words once and keeps them, ready for notes; what's already saved is never charged again. Add the video track (what's on screen: slides, charts, demos) and saving reads the video twice, at twice the rate 1 credit / hour of video
Write a note · standardthe everyday preset, about 10 notes per credit on an hour-long video, the same quality as premium on a single video 0.10 credits / hour of source
Write a note · premiumstarts writing within a second, and writes the strongest notes from several videos or notes 0.30 credits / hour of source
Update an existing notemerges new material into the same versioned document. The note itself counts too: every 4,000 words of it count as an hour of source 2× the note rate
Monitor runevery 15 minutes is the fastest cadence, about 0.96 credits per day; hourly about 0.24. What it lets in is billed at the normal rates for saving and notes, up to the limit you set for a run 0.01 credits / run
Newsletter issuea monitor that emails you a written roundup of a queue's new notes. Flat per issue sent, on either preset. A quiet window sends nothing and costs only the run 0.10 credits / issue

Everything is prorated by video length: saving a 10-minute video costs about 0.17 credits, and a standard note on it costs about 0.02 credits. A note written from other notes counts their text: about 4,000 words of notes count as an hour of source. Every note costs at least 0.02 credits on standard and 0.05 on premium.

Back of the napkin

What do 10 credits buy?

The learner

Around 50 ten-minute tutorials, saved and noted. A whole course's worth of watch-later, turned into a searchable library.

about 0.19 credits each

The deep dive

Three two-hour lectures, saved, with one premium note that pulls all three together. Room left over for follow-ups.

about 2.6 credits a lecture

The market watch

A monitor on your keyword, running every three hours, plus saving and noting what it catches. The smallest pack runs it for the season it is valid.

about 2.4 credits a month + finds

Ten credits is the smallest pack. With the launch promotion it delivers fifteen.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

What exactly is a credit?
One hour of video, saved. You spend credits in fractions: a standard note on a ten-minute video is about 0.02 credits, a monitor run 0.01. Your balance and a per-action spend history are always visible in the app.
Is there a subscription?
No. You buy credits when you want them and they sit in your account until you spend them or they expire. There is no monthly fee, nothing renews, and we never charge your card without you clicking buy. When you run low we email you once, with a link to buy again.
How does the launch promotion work?
Until 31 December 2026 a credit costs $1 whichever way you buy. The 10-credit pack is $10, its launch price. The 20 and 50 packs and the Team plan keep the sticker price and come with 50% more credits: a 20-credit pack delivers 30, a 200-credit Team plan delivers 300. Bonus credits have the same validity as the ones you paid for, and they are judged at the moment the payment completes. The sticker is $1.50 a credit and does not change when the promotion ends; the launch price and the extra credits simply stop.
Do credits expire?
Yes. A pack is valid 3 months from the purchase, the Team plan for its year, and the free 3 credits for 1 month. Spending always uses the credits that expire soonest, and your account page lists every batch with its date.

Credits we grant by hand never expire unless we say so when we grant them. A change to these windows is announced at least 30 days ahead and applies only to credits bought after that date.

What is the minimum, and can I buy another amount?
The smallest pack is 10 credits. Below that the payment fees eat the price. There are three packs and nothing to configure; for more, buy again or combine two. Teams pick 100 to 500 credits in steps of 100; above that it is Enterprise.
I'm on one of the earlier monthly plans. What changes?
Nothing, until you decide. Your plan keeps running and granting its credits until you cancel it, and the Account page still manages it. We no longer sell new monthly plans; when yours ends, buy credits here instead.
Who handles my payment details?
Paddle, our merchant of record. They run the checkout, store the card, handle VAT and issue the invoice. Your card details never touch our servers.
Are prices shown with or without tax?
Without. Every price here is before tax and carries a "+ VAT" or "+ tax" marker. Checkout adds your country's VAT or sales tax, shows the total before you pay, and itemizes it on the invoice. Buying in Europe you pay in euros; everywhere else in dollars, at the same numbers. Businesses with a valid EU VAT ID enter it at checkout and pay the net price (reverse charge).
What about refunds?
Every purchase carries a 30-day money-back guarantee on the credits you have not spent. The details are in our refund policy.
What are the model presets?
Two presets for writing notes, with the same features and the same size limit. Standard writes a note from one video as well as premium, for a third of the price. Premium starts writing within a second and writes the strongest notes when one note draws on several videos or notes. You pick per note.
How does the Team plan work?
One person buys it (100 to 500 credits in steps of 100, paid once, valid one year) and becomes the owner. They invite up to 5 colleagues by email; each accepts with that address and from then on works in the owner's workspace: the same notes, videos, queues, monitors, collections, prompts and balance. Newsletters can go to a list of recipients the owner sets. Members can't buy or change billing; the owner can add a pack of credits to the team's balance at any time. Thirty days before the year ends we send a reminder; buying the Team plan again extends it by a year. Spend history shows who triggered each charge.
What does Enterprise add?
Everything in Team, then whatever your organisation needs: more than 500 credits a year, more than 5 people, support calls, onboarding help (a working session to plan your queues, monitors and newsletters), custom integrations, and your own paperwork (a purchase order, a signed quote, a particular invoice format). Every purchase already comes with a proper invoice from Paddle, and an EU VAT ID entered at checkout takes the VAT off. Write to sales@knowstash.ai and we'll send a quote.
