# Plans, credits & top-ups

> Free, Pro, Power, Team, monthly credits, paid actions, and top-up behavior.

Plans, credits & top-ups answer: **which plan do I need, and when do credits get used?**

videngineer has four plan levels: **Free**, **Pro**, **Power**, and **Team**.

## What credits are for

Credits are used for heavier generated assets and deeper production surfaces.

| Action                             | Credit behavior                                                                         |
| ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Cast/Object isolate                | 1 credit                                                                                |
| World clean plate / person removal | 2 credits                                                                               |
| Sound Kit                          | 1 credit, charged only on success; reopen is free                                       |
| Cut Blueprint                      | 2 credits (Free accounts get one at no charge to try it; paid plans pay from the first) |
| 4K master on Pro                   | Available via credits when the source supports it                                       |

Reopening a successfully stored paid output is free. For example, if you already generated a Cut Blueprint or Sound Kit for a teardown, opening it again does not charge again.

## Top-ups

Top-ups add credits outside the monthly plan allocation and are valid for **12 months**. Use top-ups when a project needs extra Cut Blueprints, Sound Kits, cutouts, clean plates, or source-quality unlocks before the next monthly reset.
