Tracking Your Credit Usage

Credits are Signado's unified currency. Every action—monitoring, scraping, AI messages, validation—draws from one pool. Track your balance to avoid interruptions.

Find Your Usage

Go to Settings → Usage to see your current credit balance, daily burn rate, and full transaction history. Your credit balance is also visible in the sidebar at all times.

Key Metrics

Credit Balance

Your remaining credits for the current billing cycle. Free tier shows lifetime remaining.

Daily Burn Rate

How many credits you're spending per day based on your active monitoring setup. Useful for forecasting when you'll run out.

Projected Depletion

An estimate of when your credits will hit zero at the current burn rate. If this date falls before your next billing reset, consider reducing monitoring or upgrading.

What Costs Credits

Action	Credits
Daily monitoring (per contact/day)	10
Weekly monitoring (per contact/week)	10
Initial enrichment (new contact)	40
AI message generation	7
LinkedIn / Google Maps scrape (per result)	1
Email validation	1

Uploading contacts, viewing signals, and re-activating previously monitored contacts cost nothing.

Transaction History

Every credit deduction and addition is logged at Settings → Usage. Each entry shows the action type, number of credits, and timestamp. Use this to audit spending and identify which actions consume the most.

Status Indicators

Your balance shows a color-coded status:

• Green (Healthy) — More than 7 days of credits remaining at current burn rate
• Amber (Warning) — Less than 7 days remaining
• Red (Critical) — Less than 3 days remaining, or balance is zero

When your balance hits zero, monitoring pauses automatically. It resumes when credits are added (billing reset or plan upgrade).

When Credits Reset

Free tier: Credits never reset. 500 lifetime credits, once spent, they're gone.

Paid tiers: Credits reset to your full pool on your billing date each month. Unused credits do not roll over.
