# AI credits AI credits are used for translating your website content with AI. **They are not required to use Linguana.** Subscriptions come with a limited amount of AI credits that do not renew, but additional AI credits can be purchased. *1 AI credit equals 1 translated word.* This means that if your website has 100,000 words, it will cost you 100,000 credits to AI translate. If you opted for the Business plan, you would have already received 100,000 credits on your account upon sign up. **AI credits are not a subscription item, and will not add to your monthly cost**. They are a pay-as-you-go, one-time purchase, and can be purchased as needed. **If you will be translating the website manually** and not be using AI translations, **you can do so without purchasing AI credits.** You can buy AI credits on or by clicking on your credits balance in the navigation bar. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
