Air Credit Margin Model

Air's Business plan includes 30,000 credits per month for $900, which agencies can treat as a fixed cost and convert into a profitable retainer by mapping credits to client deliverables. For example, an agency managing three mid-market brands can allocate 10,000 credits per client, covering roughly 200 bulk resizes or reformats per month (assuming 50 credits per adaptation). By charging each client $500 monthly for asset adaptation services, the agency covers the $900 platform cost and generates $600 in gross margin. The model works because Air's Canvas enables bulk resizing and reformatting, so credits are consumed per action, not per asset. Agencies must track credit usage per client to avoid overruns, and can adjust pricing if clients exceed their allocation. This framework turns Air's credit system into a predictable revenue engine, provided the agency monitors usage and sets clear client expectations.
