Q: Burning credits
Hi, I'm interested in your software and I tried a demo account before buying. I tried to make a really small project from the ground and my 500 credits were gone in what felt like a few minutes which really makes me doubt the current credit limit per month.
Maybe it was because I used Claude Opus 4.6 instead of Minimax M2.7. Maybe it's just not built for building databases from the base.
Can you elaborate on what is most efficient in regards to saving credits? And secondly, if we run out of credit, how can we then add on credits without having to post LinkedIn reviews or things like that?

Apr 17, 2026A: Hi Andreas77, thanks for your question and for trying out Teable!
You can see your credit usage at the end of each session. From this experience—what kind of database were you building? Did you notice any unusually high consumption? We’d love your feedback.
App Builder has a best practices guide: https://help.teable.ai/en/basic/ai/app-builder-practical-guide. Chat follows similar practices and the experience is generally the same.
You can purchase add-on credits directly, in units of 500 credits, $5/month (billed yearly) or $6/month (billed monthly) per space. In Teable: Space Settings > Plan > Add-on usage subscriptions
Choose the model based on task complexity: use Opus for high-complexity tasks, Minimax for lighter tasks to save credits.
Hope this helps.

@Andreas I was able to build several apps, see my review here: https://appsumo.com/products/teable/reviews/teable-honest-review-the-best-saas-iv-376913/
Maybe just use GPT 5.4 Pro with extended reasoning first, so that you can save 5-10k credits. Building new apps with Teable on a daily basis.
