Credits & Pricing
Understand SparkBuilt's transparent pricing model, credits system, and how to get the most value from your license.
Credits & Pricing
Simple, transparent pricing that works for you—not against you.
How Pricing Works
SparkBuilt uses a License + Credits model. Think of it like buying a car:
- $49/year Annual License = The car (access to all features)
- Credits = The gas (pay only for AI you actually use)
- $2 starter credits included with every license
What Your $49/year License Includes
Core Features
- AI Web App Builder (Build)
- AI Pitch Deck Builder (Deck)
- Project Management
- $2 Starter Credits
What You Own
- Export Pitch Decks to PDF/PPT
- Export App Code to GitHub/ZIP
- All exports are yours forever
- No lock-in, no restrictions
How Credits Work
- Credits fuel AI features (deck creation, app building, etc.)
- You receive $2 in starter credits with your license
- Top up credits as needed—pay only for what you use
- Credits are priced at wholesale cost—no 300-500% markup
- 1 Credit = $1 USD of AI usage
Monitoring Your Usage
- Go to Profile → Usage
- View your credit balance, daily usage, and remaining credits
- See detailed charts: daily credits, API calls, token usage
- Events table: recent actions, model used, credits spent, latency
Why License + Credits?
Traditional SaaS charges $50-100/month whether you use it or not. We think that's unfair.
- No "idle tax"—you don't pay during months you're not building
- Fair pricing—light users pay less, heavy users get wholesale rates
- Yearly flexibility—build intensely, take breaks, come back anytime
- No auto-renewal—we never auto-charge without your permission
