We’re introducing a major update to how Verdent works — giving you more ways to control cost, usage, and performance.
Moving beyond credits-only usage
Until now, Verdent usage was primarily driven by credits.
But as workflows get longer and more complex, relying on credits alone creates limitations:
- Work stops when credits run out
- Costs become harder to control for longer tasks
This update introduces a more flexible system — so you’re no longer constrained by a single usage model.
Eco Mode — keep working, no credits needed
Eco Mode lets you continue using Verdent with lower-cost models — without using credits.
- Continue working without interruption
- Ideal for longer, iterative workflows
- Included in all subscription plans
You now have a built-in way to extend your usage without increasing cost.

BYOK — use your own models, your way
With BYOK (Bring Your Own Key), you can plug in your own API keys and run models directly.
- Full control over usage and cost
- No Verdent credits required
- Works seamlessly within your existing workflows

Pay-as-you-go, now more cost-efficient
We’ve updated PAYG pricing to align with actual model costs.
- No expiration
- More flexible scaling when you need it
Updated subscription credits
As part of this update, we’ve adjusted how subscription credits are structured.
For a limited time, all plans include a 50% credit bonus, providing additional credits each month.
At the same time, we’ve lowered Pay-as-you-go pricing to be closer to actual model costs.
These changes are designed to better balance cost and usage — while giving you more flexible ways to continue working through Eco Mode, BYOK, and PAYG.
You now have multiple ways to use Verdent
Instead of a single system, you now have a flexible combination:
- Credits — for high-performance usage
- Eco Mode — for cost-efficient workflows
- BYOK — for full control
- PAYG — for flexible scaling
What this means for you
This update gives you more than just credits.
It gives you:
- More control over cost
- More flexibility in how you work
- And the ability to keep going without interruption
Verdent is no longer just a credits-based tool —
it’s a system designed to adapt to how you actually work.
