Adding More Kilo Credits

Once you've used any initial free Kilo Credits, you can easily add more:

• Subscribe to the Kilo Pass, the most cost effective way to add credits.
• Purchase additional credits as a one-time transaction.
• Enable automatic top-up, which purchases additional credits when your balance is below $5.

These options are available to purchase from your personal profile page.

You can also use subscriptions or credits you may have purchased directly with an AI provider by adding your keys on the Bring your own Key (BYOK) settings screen. If your provider is not yet supported, you can also directly connect your provider in the extension and CLI.

Transparent Pricing

At Kilo Code, we believe in complete pricing transparency:

• Our pricing matches the model provider's API rates exactly
• We don't take any commission or markup.
• $1 you give us becomes $1 of Kilo credits
• We debit your Kilo credits exactly what the provider charges us in dollars
• You only pay for what you use with no hidden fees

Future Plans

We're continuously working to improve Kilo Code and expand our offerings:

• Additional LLM providers will be added in the future
• More payment options and other plans are under development
