One balance · creation without the setup

Make the thing. Skip the provider maze.

KE Credits turn released creative tools into one simple experience. Write, design, generate, edit, research, and ship without managing a different account, API key, pricing table, or billing stack for every capability underneath. Behind that simplicity, a server-owned maximum hold and exact receipt keep concurrent spend bounded while KE's private margin and routing policy stays sealed. Stripe funds the wallet; it never executes capability work.

From idea to finished output

One creative balance becomes more useful with every released KE capability.

Writing and campaigns

Move from a rough idea to research, concepts, scripts, messaging, and finished campaign assets without rebuilding your workspace for every step.

Visuals and motion

Create and refine imagery, storyboards, scenes, edits, and production-ready media through the KE experiences that are available to you.

Voice and audio

Add narration, dialogue, sound, and audio workflows as released capabilities join the same balance and receipt system.

Research and delivery

Gather evidence, make decisions, assemble deliverables, and carry accepted work into reusable routines instead of starting over.

What KE removes

The infrastructure stays out of your creative flow.

Provider accounts

No separate signup and billing journey for every released capability.

Pricing spreadsheets

See the maximum credit use before work starts and the settled amount afterward.

Billing glue

One wallet, one usage contract, and one recovery path across KE products.

Scattered receipts

Every completed action returns to the same balance and durable history.

Simple on the surface · exact underneath

You stay focused on the outcome. KE keeps the transaction understandable.

Every KE-managed provider call needs a server-owned maximum quote, an atomic wallet hold, a durable provider-attempt record, and exact settlement or recovery. Standalone prepaid capabilities need no subscription: the held Credits are sized against the customer's verified processor-net funding after discounts and fees, while the server privately covers attributable cost and minimum margin. Subscription-included hosted execution must also fit its verified paid-period upstream-cost window. BYO provider compute is billed directly by that provider and is not counted as KE managed-provider cost.

Standalone prepaid

Atomic cost-plus wallet hold

No subscription is required. A server-owned rate creates a maximum hold before provider work; every concurrent hold reduces the same available wallet. Final provider usage settles the exact debit, provably unused authority returns, and exact retries replay instead of charging twice. Initial Production usage is exact-account allowlisted; broad managed usage remains code-closed until cash-versus-grant provenance has its own aggregate exposure proof.

Per paid subscription period

Aggregate upstream-cost ceiling

Maximum provider cost reserves before execution. Actual billed cost remains counted even if a customer debit is later reversed. Only provably unbilled work releases capacity. Trial, unknown, and unpriced states fail closed. A positive credit balance cannot bypass a full period window.

The exact upstream ceiling, cost reserve, and minimum-margin policy are private server controls. Customers receive the maximum Credit hold before authorizing work and the exact Credit settlement after it finishes. A listed plan or rate never grants runtime or sales authority.

Applicable tax is calculated separately at Checkout. The exact credit limit for an action is shown before it runs. Funding proof uses the customer's effective processor-net cash value after discounts, fees, refunds, and disputes. Face value alone never authorizes provider work.

For builders

Put the same simplicity inside your own product.

The Credits API gives released experiences one consistent contract: identify the account, request a server-owned quote, reserve a maximum, settle the completed work, and return a durable receipt. New capabilities can join without forcing your customers through a new billing system.

What remains true for every integration

  • Customers see the maximum credit use before execution.
  • Retries cannot create a second charge for the same action.
  • Actual settled use and the remaining balance return together.
  • Connector scope and release stay explicit; private products remain membership-gated.

Transparent customer charge · private risk model

You see the Credit ceiling. The server protects the recipe.

The customer contract is exact without publishing the internal cost formula. Every call shows a maximum Credit hold before dispatch and an exact Credit debit afterward. Provider routing, component rates, infrastructure allocation, refund risk, and margin policy remain server-owned KE IP.

Customer-visible

Exact Credit authority

Maximum hold, exact debit, returned remainder, balance, receipt, and stable retry identity are visible. No hidden post-run surcharge.

Server-enforced

No-loss admission

Verified net funding must cover the current provider ceiling, attributable variable costs, and the private minimum margin before any provider attempt can begin.

Fail closed

Unknown means no dispatch

Missing, stale, unattested, unpriced, or margin-negative inputs refuse before provider work. Price drift requires a fresh quote; ambiguous billed attempts reconcile without replay or refund.

Clear where it matters

Simple does not mean surprising.

Before purchase

Pack price, included credits, applicable tax, and refund terms are visible before Checkout.

Before creation

The maximum credit use is known before a released capability can run.

After creation

The settled amount, returned hold, receipt, and wallet balance remain available after reload.

Hard boundaries. KE Credits are closed-loop usage units, not cash, deposits, cryptocurrency, or an investment. They do not expire, transfer, redeem, earn yield, or grant product entitlement, and they can only be used for currently available KE services.
