I want to know how many credits a generation will cost before I start it.

Show the estimated credit cost of a generation before the user starts it. This helps users make informed decisions and avoid unexpected credit usage.

This feature displays an upfront estimate of how many credits a generation will consume before the user runs it. The estimate is presented in the generation flow so users can evaluate cost prior to committing. It helps users manage their credit balance by reducing uncertainty and preventing surprise deductions. Users can compare different generation choices and decide whether to proceed, adjust settings, or cancel. The feature supports more predictable budgeting for both individual and team accounts. It also reduces friction for users who hesitate to run generations due to unclear pricing. By clarifying costs ahead of time, it increases transparency and trust in the credit system. This is particularly useful for users working under strict limits, running many generations, or experimenting with different approaches. Overall, it enables better planning and control over credit spending before initiating a generation.
