Our goal at meinGPT is to maximize customer value through regular, extensive platform usage. To achieve this, we use a pricing model where you pay a fixed platform base fee plus the actual usage of AI services. This way we have no incentive to artificially keep usage low.
Credits are charged based on usage. The cost of an individual action depends on:
Model choice — reasoning models and premium LLMs consume more credits per token than cheaper standard models. You can find the full per-token table on All models.
Input and output length — measured in tokens. Long conversations and verbose answers consume more.
Additional features — image generation, translation, audio transcription, workflow steps. Each has its own price (see the pricing page). Tool calls (e.g. search, reading a website) don't have a price of their own — they show up as the extra tokens they add to text generation.
Unit reminder: 1.62 credits is 1.62 cents — not 1.62 €.
If the AI uses tools along the way (e.g. a search or reading a website), there's no separate flat fee for that — the extra tokens a tool call produces simply count toward the input/output length of the text generation.

A single chat costs a few cents. Consumption becomes order-of-magnitude relevant only with frequent use of premium models, high-resolution image generation, and complex workflows.

Want to estimate ahead? Use the cost calculator before a workshop or rollout to gauge the budget.
Across the platform you see amounts almost everywhere directly in euros — balance, consumption, and limits are all shown as euro values. Credits are the internal billing unit (one credit = one cent) and only still appear explicitly in a few places, such as the auto-topup threshold.
If you do come across a credit figure: credits are cents. 8,500 credits = 85.00 €. If a number looks surprisingly large, check the unit.
