Yes. Decks, reviews, Anki imports and FSRS scheduling are free, with no card limit. Reading class notes into cards is free for 10 documents a day, and example sentences are free for 50 a day. Every new account also gets 10 AI credits to try pictures and audio. ### Is this a subscription? Credit packs are one-time payments. Nothing renews and there's nothing to cancel. Schwanki Plus, an optional subscription, is coming with the iOS app launch. ### Do credits expire? No expiry date. Credits stay on your account until you spend them. ### What happens when I run out? Your decks and reviews keep working. You only need credits for pictures, audio, class pictures, recorded lessons, AI suggestions, and imports or sentences past the free daily amount. The goose will suggest a refill. It's not asking. ### What does recording a lesson cost? Your first recorded lesson is free, up to an hour. After that it's 1 credit per 5 minutes you record, so a 50-minute lesson is 10 credits. Pauses don't count. If a recording can't be transcribed, the credits go back to your account. ### Can I use my own AI keys instead? Yes. Add keys from OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, ElevenLabs, fal and others in Settings. Your provider bills you directly, Schwanki adds nothing, and no credits are used for what your keys cover. Recorded lessons always use Schwanki's transcription and are paid in credits. ### How do payments and refunds work? Stripe handles checkout in USD, and every purchase comes with a receipt in Billing. Purchases are non-refundable unless the law says otherwise or something went wrong on our side. If it did, email us and we'll sort it out. ![The Chaos Goose](https://schwankiapp.com/goose.png) ## Start with your Anki deck. Buy credits when a word needs a picture.
