Validation Credits & Billing
PlanMySaaS operates on transparent, usage-based credit accounting. Credits are debited on a per-section basis as your analysis generates, rather than in an opaque upfront block. You only pay for sections that successfully complete.
Validation report requirements
30 comprehensive sections covering problem, market, competition, economics, legal, risk, and strategic synthesis.
5 specialized sections covering current-state snapshot, positioning, tech debt, opportunity map, and upgrade verdict.
Refund-on-fail, never double-charged
If a section fails to generate — network interruption, API timeout, or schema validation miss — the exact credits charged for it get refunded immediately in your ledger. You will see the refund credited back to your balance with the section identified.
Completed sections are never re-charged on resume. If you re-trigger validation on an idea that already has 18 of 30 sections complete, only the remaining 12 incur charges. The Nova chat "regenerate section" tool re-runs individual sections cleanly on demand.
Out of credits mid-run? Graceful pause.
Old validation tools punish you for running low — they either fail loud mid-report or quietly truncate. PlanMySaaS pauses the pipeline gracefully the moment a section would charge below your balance, leaving completed sections intact and remaining sections at pending. After topping up, open the idea and hit Generate to resume from the first pending section.
Plan allowances & top-ups
Free workspaces get initial credits on signup to test validation capabilities. Paid plans (Starter, Pro, Team) receive monthly credit allowances included with their subscription. Additional credit top-ups can be purchased at any time from your billing dashboard.
Workspace daily ceilings ensure service stability and abuse prevention. Current limits and balance are clearly displayed in your dashboard before starting any run.
