Plans & Quotas

Tubient uses a tiered resource system to manage API costs and ensure platform stability while providing professional-grade analytics.

Resource Units

AI Resource Units

Credits consumed by the Gemini engine for processing your natural language queries and building pipelines. Costs are optimized via context caching.

YouTube API Units

Credits consumed by requests to the YouTube Data and Analytics APIs. These mirror the actual resource costs of retrieving your channel data.

Intelligent Analysis

Daily credits for deep-dive narrative analysis and "Why" style queries. You can still build nodes after this limit is reached.

Session History

The maximum number of persistent pipeline histories you can save per channel in your cloud account.

Connected Channels

The maximum number of YouTube channels you can link and actively manage simultaneously under your account.

🚨 Limit-Reached Behavior

To protect API stability and keep budgets predictable, Tubient employs intelligent guardrails when you reach plan limits:

  • Channel Limits: If you reach the channel connection limit for your current plan, the system displays a modal guiding you on how to proceed. Free users see an option to upgrade, while Paid users are prompted to remove an existing channel before adding a new one.
  • Intelligent Analysis Limit: When daily deep-dive credits are exhausted, the AI Assistant gracefully transitions into Architect Mode. You can still build, adjust, and query canvas nodes in real-time, but narrative summaries are paused until the daily reset.

Daily Reset Cycle

All usage odometers (AI Units, YouTube Units, and Intelligent Analysis) automatically reset daily at 07:00 UTC. This ensures you always have a fresh start for your daily channel optimization tasks.

Plan Tiers

You can view your current plan, check real-time usage metrics, and upgrade your account by visiting the Account Page.

  • Free Plan: Perfect for single-channel creators. Includes standard daily usage limits, a limited number of saved sessions, and standard AI building capabilities.
  • Paid Plan: Designed for professional multi-channel management. Includes significantly higher daily resource quotas, increased saved sessions, and priority Intelligent Analysis depth.

If a Payment Fails

If a subscription payment does not go through — an expired card is the usual cause — your account is not suspended and nothing you have built is taken away. Your subscription stays open while Stripe automatically retries the payment over the following weeks, and we email you each time an attempt fails so you know where things stand.

During that retry window your account moves to reduced daily quotas. You keep your plan and everything on it; only the daily usage allowances drop to Free Plan levels, so heavy days will run out of credits sooner than usual.

What You Keep

  • Your plan itself — you are still on your paid tier, not downgraded
  • All connected channels stay linked
  • All saved sessions stay saved, and you can keep saving new ones
  • Premium Nodes keep working, on new canvases and existing ones alike
  • Channel Memory and every pipeline you have already built

What Is Reduced

  • AI Resource Units — daily allowance drops to the Free Plan level
  • YouTube API Units — daily allowance drops to the Free Plan level
  • Intelligent Analysis — daily allowance drops to the Free Plan level

These are daily odometers, so they still reset at 07:00 UTC as normal — just against a smaller allowance.

Getting Back to Normal

Update your card using Manage Billing on the Account Page. As soon as the payment clears, your full daily quotas return on their own — there is nothing to restore, reconnect, or rebuild, and your saved work is exactly where you left it.

If the Payment Is Never Resolved

If every retry attempt fails, Stripe cancels the subscription and the account moves fully to the Free Plan. Only at that point do the Free Plan's channel and saved-session limits apply. Nothing is deleted — but if you are over the Free Plan's channel limit you will be asked to choose which channel to keep active before you can continue.
