Token System

Subscription + top-up

Every paid plan includes a monthly token allowance. Faster server profiles burn tokens faster, and Ultra burns the most when Stockfish and Leela run together. When you need more compute, buy extra tokens instead of waiting for the next billing cycle.

📊
Monthly allowance

Paid, Pro, and Ultra each include tokens every billing cycle. Larger plans get more included compute before top-ups are needed.

Burn follows engine mode

Paid burns slowest, Pro burns faster on stronger Stockfish servers, and Ultra burns fastest when Leela or dual-engine analysis is active.

🎁
Top up anytime

Buy extra tokens when your monthly allowance runs low. This keeps heavy users active without forcing everyone into the highest subscription.

Frequently asked

What is a dedicated pod?

A dedicated RunPod CPU or GPU machine assigned to your session. Your Paid, Pro, or Ultra analysis runs on its own hardware instead of sharing a busy public pool.

What's the 30-min idle check?

After 30 minutes with no new position, the app can ask whether you're still analyzing. It keeps casual and prep plans economical without penalizing active use.

How does the token system work?

Every paid plan includes monthly tokens. Paid burns them slowest, Pro burns them faster on stronger Stockfish servers, and Ultra burns them fastest when Leela or dual-engine mode is active. You can buy extra tokens anytime.

Why are there two Stockfish subscriptions?

They serve different workflows. Paid is for casual analysis that already feels faster than most laptops. Pro is for tournament players and opening preparers who need stronger Stockfish sessions and a bigger monthly token budget.

What does Ultra add?

Ultra adds Leela and lets you run Stockfish and Leela together in one session. That is the strongest workflow, so it also burns tokens the fastest.

Does free include Leela?

No. Free is for shared Stockfish and lightweight trial usage. Leela is reserved for the Ultra tier.

Start with shared Stockfish. Upgrade when you need prep speed.

No credit card required to start. Every paid tier adds monthly tokens, and extra tokens are available when your study volume grows.
