qBraid provides a default monthly quota for AI chats, powered by qBraid credits. This guide explains how your AI quota works and how to track your usage.

Plan Quotas

Your monthly AI quota depends on your subscription plan:
PlanDefault AI Usage
FreeBase quota
Standard5x more usage
Pro10x more usage
Complex queries with longer responses consume more input / output tokens and will fill up your quota faster.

Usage Costs

Each AI interaction consumes a portion of your monthly quota based on the type of action:
ActionAverage Cost
AI Chat prompt1 credit
Agent Mode query2 credits
Agent Mode execution5 credits
Credit costs only come into play once your monthly quota is exhausted and you have enabled the Auto-switch to Credits toggle. Until then, all AI usage is covered by your plan’s included quota.

Tracking Your Usage

Monitor your AI usage in real-time from your account dashboard:
  1. Navigate to your account dashboard
  2. Go to Account > Usage > AI Chat Usage
  3. View your current consumption and remaining quota
AI Chat Usage
The usage panel displays:
  • Monthly Quota — Progress bar showing percentage of your monthly AI quota used
  • Status — Whether you’re currently using your quota or credits
  • Renews — The date when your monthly quota resets
  • Can Send — Whether you can currently send AI agent messages
  • Auto-switch to Credits — Toggle to continue chatting with credits when your quota runs out

Tips for Efficient Usage

Ask multiple related questions in a single prompt rather than separate messages to reduce credit consumption.
Save Agent Mode for execution tasks. Use regular AI Chat for exploration and learning.
The AI remembers your conversation, so you don’t need to repeat context in follow-up questions.
