How Licentia Credits work
Every account receives 5,000 one-time signup credits. Free users do not receive monthly AI credits after those signup credits. Student includes 10,000 monthly AI credits, Scholar includes 35,000, and Researcher includes 100,000. Subscription credits refresh every monthly credit cycle, unused subscription credits do not roll over, and annual subscribers receive credits monthly rather than all at once. Extra purchased credits are separate, are used after subscription and signup credits, and are valid for 1 year unless platform-specific purchase rules require otherwise.

Fewer credits — a focused draft with a small source set.

Source-heavy literature review
More credits — many sources, matrix work, and synthesis.

Pricing questions
Clarity on credits, plan choice, and what Licentia does — and does not — promise.
Which plan should I choose?
Choose Student for coursework, assignments, study workspaces, PDF tools, presentations, and basic statistics. Choose Scholar for master’s, PhD, thesis writing, literature reviews, source-based research, and advanced statistics. Choose Researcher for labs, heavy research, large PDFs, datasets, and high-volume usage.
Do unused monthly credits roll over?
No. Monthly subscription credits refresh every credit cycle and unused subscription credits do not roll over.
Do annual subscribers receive all credits upfront?
No. Annual plans receive the same monthly credit allowance each month: Student 10,000, Scholar 35,000, and Researcher 100,000 monthly AI credits.
Are signup credits recurring?
No. The 5,000 signup credits are granted once per account. They are not granted again when you subscribe, upgrade, downgrade, cancel, or resubscribe.
What happens if I buy extra credits?
Extra credits are separate from subscription credits and remain available until their expiration date. Monthly subscription credits are used before signup/promo credits, and purchased credits are used after those balances.
Can I start free?
Yes. Free includes 5,000 one-time signup credits, core writing and study tools, and limited exports. Free does not include monthly AI credits after signup credits are used.
Why is Scholar marked Most Popular?
Scholar is the strongest value for master’s, PhD, thesis writing, literature reviews, source-based research, and advanced statistics at $16.67/month when billed annually at $199.99/year.
How does Licentia handle citations?
Licentia keeps claims connected to sources and provides citation readiness checks. You remain responsible for verifying citations and final review before submission.
- No fabricated citations
- An estimate before any major action
- You stay the author
Start free. Upgrade when your work gets serious.
