Mowgli Credit Burn Rate

Mowgli's Free plan ships 300 credits and Starter gives 6,000 credits/year at $12/month billed annually, so every design iteration a client requests draws down a finite pool. Agencies should treat credits as a delivery cost line, not an unlimited utility. Before quoting a fixed retainer, run the client's real brief through Mowgli and count credits consumed per screen, per state, and per revision round. A 20-screen MVP that takes three revision cycles burns far more than a single-pass build, and the Team plan at $49/seat/year adds shared folders and 12-hour support but does not remove the credit ceiling. Price the retainer so credit overages from scope creep land on the client, not on agency margin. The Mowgli MVP App Design offer at $3,500 with 24h setup works only when credit consumption is scoped and documented upfront.
