How Vermeer Thinks

Credits & billing

How credits work — a clear spendable balance, a monthly allowance, one-time top-up packs, and what you see is what a run costs.

Credits, in plain terms

Vermeer runs on credits. Every shoot, ad spread, and channel resize draws from your credit balance, and the cost of a run is shown before you commit — pick what you want and the price updates, so you always know what a run costs before you start it.

The rule is simple: what you see is what you spend. The number on the screen is the number that comes off your balance — no hidden multipliers, no surprises after the fact.

Where your credits come from

Your spendable balance is made of a few parts:

  • Your monthly allowance — the credits included with your plan, refreshed each billing period.
  • Rollover — a portion of last period's unused allowance, carried into the next one (it expires, and your balance shows you when).
  • Top-up packs — one-time credit packs you buy whenever you need more. Purchased credits don't expire and stay spendable even between plans.

Your Credits page shows the whole picture: your spendable balance, your allowance for the period, anything expiring soon, and your recent spend.

Topping up

Run low, or want more headroom for a big campaign? Buy a one-time credit pack from the Credits page — the credits land immediately and are ready to spend. Bigger packs carry more credits; you pick the size that fits the work in front of you.

What costs credits

Spend tracks the work, plainly:

  • Bigger runs cost more — a full Bundle costs more than a quick Sampler, and the picker shows the difference as you choose.
  • The Accuracy Check adds a small per-image cost — each scored shot is sent to a trusted third-party AI to grade, which is why it's an opt-in you control per brand.
  • Generative resize is paid; a plain crop is free — extending a shot to a new frame does real work; trimming one doesn't.

Everything that costs credits tells you so before you spend — so Vermeer stays something you can budget for, line by line.
