Anything Credit Ceiling Model

Anything prices by credits, not seats: Pro 20k at $19 monthly carries 20K credits, private projects, branding removal, and custom domains, while Max at $199 monthly carries 220K credits, concurrent agents, automated testing, and priority support. Treat the credit pool as the unit of agency capacity. A single-module client build (authentication, Postgres schema, one Stripe or API integration) fits inside one Pro 20k month, so a $3,500 Starter App Build fee against $19 of tooling is a margin story worth telling. The ceiling appears when a retainer client asks for revisions, a second module, or a mobile publish in the same cycle: that work draws from the same pool, and the next tier costs roughly ten times more. Before quoting a retainer, map each client's monthly change requests to credits, then decide whether Pro 20k, Max, or a per-project pass-through belongs in the contract.
