You need an active hosting plan to create and publish projects, in addition to an AI credit plan that provides your monthly AI credits.<\/p><h2 data-start=\"1073\" data-end=\"1414\" id=\"h-how-ai-credits-work\"><strong>How AI credits work<\/strong><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hostinger AI Builder agentic mode uses a dynamic credit model. Credits are charged based on the actual computing resources used per request, not a fixed per-message fee.<\/span><\/p><ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Simple or short requests consume fewer credits (e.g., 0.12).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Complex requests (heavy code generation, deep analysis) consume more credits (e.g., 2.45).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> All messages are included in the calculation, including general inquiries and non-coding interactions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Manual edits made in <strong>Select &amp; edit mode<\/strong>, such as changing text or replacing an image, also use a small number of credits, typically between 0.01 and 0.05.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To review credit
