Plan your book. Approve the quote. Keep unused credits.

Before generationReview the maximum quote. The service reserves that amount from your balance.

When your book is deliveredWriting settles once on completed words, rounded upward to 0.1 credit and capped by the approved quote. Unused credits return to your balance.

As you reviseManual editing is free. Requested writing revisions use credits; a new generated cover direction uses another 50. System failures and automatic repairs add no credit charge.

Referrals use Scribe Credits too.

An eligible inviter receives 50 credits and the new customer receives 25 welcome credits after a qualifying subscription payment clears a 30-day hold and payment checks. Free signups and top-ups do not qualify. Read the invitation rules →
