AI Credits
AI Credits are the fuel for every AI-powered feature in RankFrame. Each time the AI generates a meta title, meta description, image alt text, or schema field, it consumes one credit. Credits are purchased separately from your plan subscription and never expire while your subscription is active.

1. What One Credit Does

One credit equals one AI generation. Each individual output from the AI costs exactly one credit, regardless of which Framer SEO feature triggered it. Here are examples of how credits are consumed:
Generating a meta title for one page = 1 credit
Generating a meta description for one page = 1 credit
Generating alt text for one image = 1 credit
Bulk generating alt text for 72 images = 72 credits
Auto-generating a schema field set for one page = 1 credit
Credits are only consumed when a generation completes. Viewing, editing, or deleting existing content does not use credits.
2. Credits Balance Badge
Your current credit balance is always visible in the Image SEO header as a dark red/coral pill badge. It includes a refresh icon you can tap to force a live sync from the server. When your balance is loaded it shows the count, for example "60,498 Credits". When empty it shows "0 Credits". Check this badge before starting any bulk generation to make sure you have enough credits to complete the run.
3. Buy Credits Button
The purple Buy Credits button sits in the Image SEO header, next to the balance badge. Clicking it opens the top-up modal where you select a credit package and complete payment through Polar.sh. Your balance updates inside the plugin within a few seconds of a successful purchase. You can also buy credits from dashboard.rankframe.com if you prefer to manage credits outside the plugin.
4. Credit Pricing
Three pricing tiers are available. The first-time offer is the best value and is only available once per account:
First-time offer: 30,000 credits for $49 (one-time discount, first purchase only)
Regular refill: 30,000 credits for $100
Smaller tier: 1,000 credits for $10
If you have not yet made your first credit purchase, use the first-time offer. The $49 rate gives you roughly double the credits per dollar compared to the regular refill price.
5. Starter Credits (Trial)
Your 7-day free trial includes approximately 500 starter credits at no charge. These are added automatically when you connect your first site. They are enough to generate meta titles and descriptions for 10 to 20 pages, or to test bulk alt text on a small image set. Starter credits give you a realistic sense of AI output quality before you commit to a credit purchase.
6. Credits Do Not Expire
Credits stay valid as long as your subscription is active. There is no monthly reset and no expiry date attached to a credit purchase. A large refill will cover months of activity. If your subscription lapses and then you renew, your remaining credit balance is restored with your account.
7. Credits Are Non-Refundable
Once a credit is consumed by a completed generation, it cannot be refunded. Failed generations caused by a plugin error or network timeout should not consume credits. If you believe a credit was consumed incorrectly due to a technical error, contact hello@7seersmedia.com with details of the generation and a timestamp. The 7 Seers team will investigate.
Credit Planning Guide
Use the estimates below to choose the right credit package for your site. These assume a full initial generation pass (meta titles, descriptions, and alt text) followed by ongoing maintenance updates.
Small Portfolio (~50 credits): 10-page site. Covers meta titles and descriptions for all pages plus alt text for a small image set. Refill once per quarter.
Medium Agency Site (~300 credits): 50-page site with approximately 200 images. Initial bulk generation plus room for periodic updates when content changes.
Large CMS Site (500-1,000 credits): 500+ images on a content-heavy site. Budget 500 credits for the initial bulk alt text run, then 200-300 per quarter for new content.
Package | Credits | Price | Cost Per Credit |
|---|---|---|---|
First-time offer (one-time) | 30,000 | $49 | $0.0016 |
Regular refill | 30,000 | $100 | $0.0033 |
Smaller tier | 1,000 | $10 | $0.01 |
First credit purchase? Always use the first-time offer of 30,000 credits for $49 before it expires. It is only available once per account and gives you roughly double the credits per dollar compared to the standard refill rate.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use credits across multiple sites?
Yes. One credit balance applies to all sites connected under your RankFrame account. Credits are account-level, not site-level.
