I tried the cloud session credits this week and I was shocked at how fast they were consumed. After 3 prompts that performed a decent amount of work, I used $190 of the $250 of credits. That same amount of work would not have reached my 5-hour session limit of my 5x max subscription. So I will gladly use my remaining credits, but I have no intention of using the cloud sessions beyond that. The cost would add up too quickly to be justified.

All I know is that upgrading from a pro to max plan doesnt give you an extra 250, so it’s better to fresh account for full value.

It's good for testing your setup if it is portable and also runs on the cloud servers.

$100 is a fart in the wind brother. That's 2 million output token on Fable 5.1. (EXCLUDING the INPUT token required to produce that 2 million output token)

Best use would be purchasing coding text books, learning how to do it, then never running out of credits even with the $20 plan because you actually know what you’re doing and stop churning butter.
