As of today, we've officially transitioned from operations to credits as the term used for Make's billing unit. Here's what to know:

- **Your plan**: Your current plan and pricing, including the cost of buying credits, remain unchanged. The cost of credits [varies by plan](https://www.make.com/en/pricing). 
- **Credit usage for non-AI features**: Your credit usage won't increase—1 operation still uses 1 credit. 
- **Credit usage for third-party AI apps:** AI apps like OpenAI, ChatGPT, Claude, etc. still use 1 credit per operation.
- **Credit usage for Make's built-in AI features: ** Your credit usage may increase if you're using Make's AI Provider, as we align billing with actual AI usage costs. 

### What's changed

- You are now billed in credits instead of operations.
- Operations now refer to individual module runs that process or check for data.
- All of your existing operations have been automatically converted to credits at a 1:1 ratio (for example, your 1000 operations are now 1000 credits). 
- Your credit consumption is now based on operations, AI tokens, or other usage-based factors, depending on the feature.
- You'll see both operations and credits in Make: credits are what you buy and consume to use features, and operations are the activities that use those credit.

### Where to find it

You can manage and track your credit usage in several places throughout Make:

- **Dashboard**: Daily credit usage, credits left, usage reset, and extra credits purchasing.
- **Subscription**: Total credits, percentage used, and extra credits purchasing. 
- **Scenarios**: Credits used per scenario.
- **Diagram**: Credits used in a specific scenario and its runs.
- **Scenario Builder**: Credits used per module as you build and run scenarios. 
- **History**: Credits used in individual scenario runs.
