Credits Usage
Caimera uses a credits system across image and video tools, with different prices depending on your plan (Free, Mini, Starter, Pro). Some actions are unlimited on specific models and plans, while others consume credits per image or per second of video.
Personal credit limits
Workspace admins can cap how many credits each member is able to use in a month, so one person's batch job can't drain the whole workspace.
- Limits are set per member by an admin, and reset on the 1st of each month.
- If you have a limit, you can request a higher one once less than 40% of your credits remain.
- A 24-hour cooldown stops duplicate requests. It clears as soon as an admin raises or removes your limit.
Admins manage limits, and see how the team is spending, under Settings Page: https://app.caimera.ai/settings → Users → ⋮ → Set Credit Limit.
Editorial Images
- Adding a product is free on all plans.
- After your product is added, Fast 1K generations are unlimited on Starter and Pro. Pro 1K generations are also unlimited on Pro.
- Editorial Images and the creative agent generate and edit at 2K by default. A 2K image uses 2 credits on Fast and Pro, and 5 on Max. To spend fewer credits, or to use your unlimited 1K generations, switch the resolution to 1K before you generate, or ask the agent for 1K. Edits keep the resolution of the image you are editing.
- Unlimited generations apply only to images you create directly in the Caimera app. Workflow batch runs, and workflows you run from Claude or another AI agent, use at least 1 credit per image on the Fast and Pro models.
- Editorial Images generates natively at 1K, 2K or 4K. Max generates at 1K or 2K only — a 4K request is generated at 2K. Any generation can then be upscaled further (up to 14K with Crystal).

Upscaling
Upscalers are only available on paid plans. Crystal and SeedVR are priced by the size of the output image, so the same upscaler costs more the larger you go. The exact cost is shown before you apply.
You can also ask the creative agent to upscale an image in plain words ("make this higher res", "sharper for print"). It offers the available models and sizes, and the confirmation card shows the exact credit cost before anything runs.
Upscaler | Max output | Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Fluid Upscaler | 4K | 0 credits | Included with paid plans. Outputs at 4K, so use Crystal or SeedVR to take a 4K image further. |
Crystal Upscaler | Up to 14K | From 1 credit | About 1 credit per image Cost scales linearly with resolution selected (e.g. 4K ≈ 2 credits, 8K ≈ 8 credits) |
SeedVR Upscaler | Up to ~9.6K | From 1 credit | About 1 credit per image Cost scales linearly with resolution selected (e.g. 4K ≈ 2 credits, 8K ≈ 8 credits) |
Background removal and SVG downloads
- Remove background uses 1 credit per image. This applies when you tick Remove background while downloading an image, print or design (to your computer, Google Drive or Dropbox). If the background can't be removed, the credit goes back to your balance.
- SVG downloads of a print, design or sketch: the standard Color Layers option is free. AI Trace uses 2 credits per download and follows your image much more closely, keeping fine lines and soft shading.
