Credits & Plans

How credits are spent and topped up, what the Free plan includes and what paid plans unlock, licensing, credit packs, the monthly Nano Banana allowance, and credit expiry.

PicoBerry runs on credits. Every generation — image, 3D, remesh, texture, UV, or animation — spends credits based on how much work it takes.

How credits work

  • The exact cost of each model and option appears in the model picker and on the Generate button. Heavier jobs cost more — a high-quality 3D model with an 8K texture, for example, costs far more than a single image.
  • The Free plan gets a set amount of credits every month, and paid plans get more on each billing date. Unused monthly credits don't roll over.
  • Your remaining balance is always shown in the workspace header; the breakdown by type and expiry dates are on the Credit tab of your dashboard.
  • When you're short, the Generate button shows how much you're missing, along with how to upgrade or buy a credit pack.

What the Free plan includes

On the Free plan you can try the Image, 3D, Remesh, Texture, and Animation tools. Paid-only models and features carry a crown; clicking one brings up a plan notice.

  • Models available on Free — Images: Nano Banana · PB Image · GPT Image 2 / 3D: Tripo P1 · Tripo 3.0 · Hunyuan 3.1 · Hunyuan 3.1 Lite / Remesh: PB Remesh / Texture: Tripo Texture · PB Palette / Animation: Tripo Ani
  • License — 3D results on the Free plan are always CC BY 4.0 (public) and can be featured in Explore.
  • Limits — you can keep up to 20 3D models, monthly 3D downloads and collections (1) are limited, and jobs run one at a time.
  • Paid-only features — UV Unwrap, 3D model uploads, the Private license, and the PicoBerry API and MCP.

Plans

PicoBerry offers a Free plan plus paid plans (Starter · Pro · MAX). Higher tiers improve:

  • Monthly credits — a larger allowance each cycle.
  • Every AI model — unlocked on all paid plans.
  • Queue priority and concurrency — higher priority and more jobs running at once, which also sets how many models Compare Generation and batch Image to 3D can run together.
  • Private assets and a commercial license — paid-plan results are private by default and can be used commercially without attribution.
  • Storage, downloads, and collections — no 3D model storage cap, much higher monthly download limits (unlimited on MAX), and collections: 10 on Starter, unlimited on Pro and above.
  • MAX — team sharing (up to 4 people including the owner) and the highest queue priority.

For exact prices, monthly credit amounts, and the features in each plan, see the pricing page. Change or cancel your plan from the Billing tab of your dashboard (Account & Settings).

Licensing and commercial use

Generated assets can be used commercially on every plan — the difference is the license.

  • Free plan — results are published to the community gallery under CC BY 4.0. Anyone, including you, can use, share, and modify them for any purpose, including commercial work, as long as they credit the creator and indicate changes.
  • Paid plans — you hold a commercial license to everything you generate; assets are private by default and need no attribution.

See the Terms of Use for details.

Credit packs

While you're on a paid plan, you can buy a one-time credit pack on top of your plan. Pack credits arrive instantly and never expire, which makes them handy for a busy stretch without changing your subscription. Buy them from Buy More Credits on the Credit tab of your dashboard.

Monthly Nano Banana allowance (paid plans)

On a paid plan you also get a separate monthly allowance of credits for Nano Banana image generation only (an open event running through December 2026, for accounts that have made at least one payment).

  • It's spent before your regular credits when you generate with any Nano Banana model (Nano Banana, Nano Banana 2, Nano Banana 2.1, or Nano Banana Pro).
  • It's granted fresh every month and doesn't roll over. The amount depends on your plan and is shown on the pricing page.
  • See what's left in the header's credit menu and under Nano Banana images on the dashboard's Credit tab. MAX teams receive it in the team pool.

Credit expiry

Credits come in types, and some have a validity period. Bonus and promotional credits may carry an expiry date, subscription credits refresh each billing cycle, and purchased credit packs never expire. Check upcoming expirations and your balance by type on the dashboard's Credit tab; paid-plan users are notified 3 days before credits expire and again when they do.

Team sharing (MAX)

A MAX subscription can be shared with your team: the owner invites up to three teammates (four people including the owner), so the whole group works under one subscription at no extra cost. The owner manages billing and invitations from their account. See MAX Team Sharing for the full guide.

For larger studios, a dedicated multi-seat plan is on the way — reach out if you need more than four seats.
