What is Superscale Credit Burn Rate?
“Credits consumed per client retainer → gross margin per seat”
Superscale meters output in credits, not seats: Starter at $49 carries 4,000 credits and up to 100 AI generations monthly, Advanced at $99 doubles to 8,000 credits and 250 generations with 1 brand and 2 team members, and Pro at $199 reaches 16,000 credits. An agency's real cost driver is therefore generations per client per month, not the plan sticker. Model it before signing: a retainer client needing 8 static and video creatives monthly (the Superscale Local Ad Starter offer at $670/mo) sits comfortably inside Advanced, while a performance client testing 40 variants weekly will exhaust 16,000 credits and force a plan jump mid-month. Track credits consumed per retainer against the fee, and reprice or cap variant volume whenever a single client's generation load crosses the tier ceiling. Margin leaks when agencies absorb overage silently instead of billing creative volume as a line item.
