#Plans & credits

Everyday work is simple; the heavier lifting draws from a balance that updates as you use Nourva and add to it.

#Overview

Nourva is built so that lighter, everyday use stays simple and out of your way. The more intensive work — the kind that runs deep, takes real effort, and produces substantial results — draws from credits. You hold a balance, certain kinds of work spend from it, and that balance updates as you go.

This keeps things honest and predictable: you do not pay attention to credits for ordinary tasks, and you can see your balance move when you ask for the work that warrants it. You stay in control of how much you spend, because you choose when to reach for the heavier surfaces.

#What you can do

  • Use Nourva's everyday surfaces freely. Quick questions, conversational work, and lighter tasks stay simple and do not demand your attention on cost.
  • Spend credits on intensive work. The more demanding surfaces — a deep, multi-source investigation, for example — draw from your balance when you ask for them.
  • Hold and grow a balance. You have a credit balance that goes down as you use the heavier surfaces and goes up as you add to it.
  • Watch your balance update. Your balance reflects what you have used and what you have added, so you always know where you stand.

#How to use it

  1. Work normally. Use Chat and the everyday surfaces without thinking about credits — lighter use is simple by design.
  2. Reach for the heavier surfaces when the task calls for it. A serious, long-form investigation or another intensive job is where credits come in. Nourva tells you when a job is the kind that uses them.
  3. Keep an eye on your balance. Your balance updates as you use Nourva, so you can see what the more intensive work draws.
  4. Top up when you want more headroom. Add to your balance and it updates, ready for the next demanding task.
Note

Credits are about the weight of the work, not the surface alone. Quick, conversational use stays light; a deep investigation that reads and synthesizes many sources is where a balance matters.

#Tips

  • Lean on Chat and the lighter surfaces for quick work; save credits for the investigations and jobs that genuinely benefit from depth.
  • Glance at your balance before kicking off a large, intensive task so you know your headroom.
  • Top up ahead of a heavy stretch of work so a demanding task is never held up.
  • If you are unsure whether a task is the heavier kind, start small in Chat — Nourva will point you to the right surface when the job grows.
