AI Credits: SketchUp vs Chaos

AI Credits: SketchUp vs Chaos

Recently SketchUp have added AI features for free to SketchUp Subscribers. Similarly V-Ray and Enscape now include Veras at all tiers, and for those who don't know, Veras is a powerful AI renderer similar to that offered from SketchUp. 
With so many AI interfaces, agents and sites being added and included, you can lose track of your credits and how many you have left especially when two AI programs exist so close to each other.

SketchUp

For SketchUp this can all be done in the application by opening an AI Feature and click on Credits. For the AI Assistance this is in the bottom left corner and for AI Render it's in the top right.



Depending on the level of subscription will depend on how many credits you are given, Go having 100, Pro 150, and Studio 200. If you need more then there is a monthly subscription purchasable through SketchUp directly which gives 1500 credits.

To render a batch of 3 images costs 5 Credits and to generate an object is 30. Object generation should be used sparingly as that is the most expensive action, however if you're approaching the end of the month and have some spare, the objects can always be saved and used in a later project. 

All credits are given monthly and do not roll over. 


Chaos

For Veras AI Credits users can go to their licence server (http://localhost:30304/) or go to your Chaos account (https://my.chaos.com/credits) and look for Chaos Credits under Products  


Depending on the subscription you have will depend on the amount of credits with Solo products having 100, Premium 500, Collections 1500 and Veras Pro as a standalone subscription 2000. These are given monthly and do not roll over to the next so make the most of each month!
You can purchase Credit Packs for a bonus regardless of your subscription level and can be used for other features across the Chaos product range.
