Course outline
1
One Currency for Everything
Understand why OUPI uses a single credit system instead of separate prices per tool or provider.
2
What Determines the Cost of an Action
Learn how text tokens, model weight, media generation, agent mission rounds, and sandbox compute time each consume credits differently.
3
Plans and Monthly Allowances
Discover what a plan includes — monthly credit allowance, unlocked models and tools, renewal rules, and how upgrades and downgrades work.
4
Team Credits and Administration
Understand how a shared team allowance is distributed by an administrator, how per-member consumption is tracked, and how personal and team balances combine.
5
Bring Your Own API Keys
Know which plans let you register your own provider keys so those requests are billed directly by the provider instead of consuming OUPI credits.
6
Never Pay for Failures
Learn that credits are debited only on success, that missions stop cleanly when the balance is short, and that unpayable chat messages are refused before they start.
7
Reading Your Balance, Costs, and Invoices
Find your live balance in the top bar, review per-mission and per-job costs, and locate invoices and billing details on the Subscription page.
8
Tips to Keep Costs Low
Apply practical strategies — automatic model selection, clear briefs, knowledge bases over pasting, and temporary chats — to minimize credit consumption.
