Q: Question about Request volume

1) Does request volume refer to the amount of AI credit or does 1 request = 1 point?

2) Can we use BYOK to bypass that, or the request amount locked?

3) I saw reference to connecting a local LLM-- does that change the request amount?

A: Hey,

1) It's real requests. A turn of conversation = 1 request

2) Yes, it's not tied to your requests, there's no usage limits when using your own keys

3) Just like BYOK, connecting local LLMs is not tied to your requests. No limits here as well.

On average, when linking BYOK, what is the average AI credit spend on a prompt that would otherwise take 1-2 minutes to complete manually?

I am trying to decide between Tier 1 (with BYOK) vs. 45K a long lead team on needing the next top-up.
