Credits & pricing
Lianas runs on a single credit currency. Every AI action spends from your balance, and you always see what is left. This page lays out exactly what the free plan gives and what each action costs, so nothing is left to guess.
What the free plan gives
Credits, granted once when you sign up. They do not renew: once spent, you keep your account, history and memory, and AI features pause until a paid plan is available. Running tasks on a machine (the desktop app or a server) and recurring tasks are not part of the free plan.
Cost per action
| Action | Credits | With your own key |
|---|---|---|
| Text reply | … | … |
| Each extra step when Lianas acts (create, search, read a page) | … | … |
| Voice transcription (speech-to-text) | … | … |
| Autonomous agent (per step) | … | … |
| Photo sent in a message | … | … |
Scheduled mail readings, automatic mail replies and reminders where Lianas writes to you each count as a text reply.
Bring your own key
If you connect your own provider API key, we no longer pay that resource's metered cost, so the matching part costs less: your LLM key discounts text replies (and the reply part of a voice turn), and your speech-to-text key makes transcription free. The two are independent, so bringing only a speech-to-text key still charges the reply. A long autonomous run spends per step across the whole run, not once at launch, which is why agents drain faster than a single message.
What happens at zero
When your balance reaches zero, chat and voice pause until a paid plan is available. Your account, conversations and memory stay untouched.
