The token wallet

overage

Write past your plan,
without the surprise.

Most plans come with a monthly generation allowance. When you need more — longer books, heavier world simulation, batch chapter runs — top up the wallet with a token pack.

Subscription allowances reset monthly. Topped-up wallet credits carry forward indefinitely. No surge pricing, no expiry tricks.

Open your wallet →
Top-up rates
Inkwell$24.99 · 15,000 tokens · about 25 chapters
Ream$59.99 · 43,000 tokens · about 71 chapters
Press$99.99 · 76,000 tokens · about 127 chapters

Chapter counts are for standard prose chapters; longer chapters, Living World ticks and mass entity generation use more. Illustrated novels (webtoon/manhwa/manhua/manga panels) draw from a separate image & motion budget, set per book — never mixed with your word count.

Billing questions

faq
§ 01Can I switch plans any time?+
Yes. Upgrade instantly; downgrade at the end of your billing period. We never cut off generation mid-story — if you exceed the new plan's limit on the day of downgrade, you'll stay on the current tier through the end of the cycle.
§ 02What happens to my worlds if I cancel?+
Nothing you made is deleted. The writing studio needs an active plan, and Access is the lightest one — come back when the season is right, and your worlds will be waiting exactly as you left them.
§ 03Do wallet top-ups expire?+
Never. Subscription allowances reset monthly. Topped-up credits carry forward indefinitely. Buy a Ream pack in January and use it in September — no problem.
§ 04Is there a student or educator discount?+
Yes — we offer a discount for verified students and educators. Contact us with your institution email and a note on your use case, and we'll set you up.
