What are AI actions?

AI actions are used when you interact with AI features on the platform whether it's creating an app in the editor or using AI features in your apps after they're built.

Key Points:

•AI actions are consumed when you use AI features in the editor or in your apps after they're built.
•Different operations consume different amounts of AI actions based on the complexity of the operation.
•Your apps remain fully functional even when AI actions run low. Only AI features are affected.
•AI actions reset monthly based on your subscription plan

Managing your usage

Monitor your usage

Keep track of your AI action usage in your account settings. You'll see how many AI actions you've used this month and which operations are consuming the most AI actions.

Optimize your apps

Design your apps to be AI action-efficient by minimizing unnecessary AI calls. Consider caching results where appropriate to reduce repeated operations.

When AI actions run low

If you run out of AI actions, your apps continue to work normally but AI features will be temporarily unavailable until your AI actions reset or you upgrade your plan.
