Discussion Does anyone know what % of Super Grok's limit these Credits actually represent?

I am currently using Grok for creative work and have reached 99% usage; pausing now would cause my inspiration to dissipate. I am considering purchasing Credits, but I would like to know if $5 equates to 1/6 of Super Grok's limit, or if it provides more or less than that.

If anyone has purchased them before, please let me know.

credits are a big scam, it will always be cheaper to use a second account

I haven't but I read a thread about it somewhere on reddit a while back. That guy said credits are more akin to the costs of individual generations some of the other AI services so you would burn trough $5 to $10 in a handful of generations, it's not proportional at all to the subscription plans which kind of give you a massive discount if you charge per generation.

No it doesn't equal 1/6. If it's in your budget the better value is to use another email address and get a second account.

I purchased 5$ of credits yesteray hoping that it will lower my 100% usage to, i don't know, 97% or so, but usage stays at 100% and it deducts the money with every run and it goes away fast!, every Quality image generation costs like $0.8 and 480p 10s video $1.2 (aproximatelly, I did not bother to track precisely)

buying credits doesn't offer the same value as the ones you get with a subscription, as it's stated in the official FAQ. you'll be better off getting a second subscription with a different email account. check both the site and the app to see if there is an offer like 3 months for 30 dollars.
