What a tool run costs
The four ways a tool can be priced, why running the same input twice is free, and what the daily allowance on a free tool actually is.
Most of the tools on Revquix cost nothing and never will. A small number are backed by an AI model, and those are the ones that spend credits - because they cost us money every time they run.
The price is on the tool's card before you open it, and again on the button before you press it.
The four kinds of tool#
-
Free - no credits, no cap, no limit. Every calculator and every developer utility is this, and most of them do not even need an account.
-
Free, a few times a day - no credits and no account required, but capped per day. The ATS checker and the JD keyword extractor work this way.
-
Costs credits - needs an account, and spends credits from your balance.
-
Free tier plus a paid tier - a genuinely useful free result on the page, with a deeper AI pass available for credits alongside it.
Running the same thing twice is free#
If you run a tool on the same input you ran it on before, you are not charged again. The result comes back immediately, and the entry in your history says it was reused rather than re-run.
There is no expiry on that. It holds until we change the tool itself - a new version of the analysis is a genuinely different answer, so the next run after an improvement is a fresh one.
The daily allowance on a free-daily tool#
One run a day without an account, four a day signed in - per tool, not shared between them, and it resets at midnight UTC.
That gap is the honest answer to "why sign in" on those pages. Credits cannot buy a run on a tool priced at zero, so there is no way to pay past the anonymous limit - signing in is the only thing that raises it.
When something goes wrong#
- A run that fails does not cost you. Credits are held while the tool runs and released if it cannot produce a result.
- If you were charged for a run that failed, the line in your credits statement identifies that exact run. Quote it when you contact us.
- A tool that returns nothing useful is not the same as one that failed. Some tools deliberately return a marked gap rather than inventing content - that is a real result, and it is charged.
