An alternative to ChatGPT without a subscription: pay only for what you use

If you use artificial intelligence a few times a week (to draft an email, prepare a budget, or summarize a document), you've probably wondered whether it's really worth paying a fixed monthly fee. For many people, the answer is no.

In this article, we explain how prepaid AI works, how much you can save, and when a subscription is a better option for you.

The Problem with Subscriptions

The paid versions of the most popular AI assistants cost about $20 a month each. If you also use several tools, the fees add up: one for chat, another for images, another for transcription…

The problem isn't the price itself, but rather that You pay the same whether you use it a lot or a little. You get the most out of a busy month; during a quiet month, you pay the same. And in many Latin American countries, a fee in dollars is a considerable expense.

What Is Prepaid AI?

The idea is the same as that of a transit card or a cell phone balance: You buy credits and use them when you need them. Each answer deducts a few credits depending on its length and the plan you choose. No fees, no minimum contract term, and no surprises.

With TOKIFY, for example:

• You can see how many credits each answer costs and keep track of your spending day by day.
• You can choose from several AI models within the same chat.
• You have tools ready for specific tasks: quotes, responses to customers, sales copy, and administrative tasks.

How much can you save? An example

Imagine you see about 10 patients a day, Monday through Friday: about 200 a month.

• With a subscription: about $20 a month, whether you use them or not.
• With TOKIFY: A typical consultation costs about 4 credits under our standard pricing model, so 200 consultations amount to about 800 credits—a small portion of our 5,000-credit package for 5 €.

The savings depend on how much you use AI and the length of your queries, but for moderate use, the difference is significant.

Who stands to benefit?

Let's be honest: prepaid plans aren't for everyone.

This is a good fit for you if:

• You use AI occasionally or irregularly.
• Are you self-employed or do you own a small business, and do you want to keep track of every expense?.
• You don't want to commit to another monthly subscription.
• Do you want to try out several models without paying multiple installments?.

A subscription might be a better fit for you if you use AI very intensively for hours every day, or if you need features that are exclusive to a specific platform.

A bonus: your privacy

When you message an AI, your messages are sent to the provider's servers. At TOKIFY, we've added two security measures at no additional cost:

• Privacy Shield: Before sending your message, we automatically hide your ID number, email address, phone number, IBAN, and credit/debit card information. The AI uses placeholders, and you see the response with your actual information.
• Private mode: With one click, the conversation is not saved.
