Credits and Billing
Understanding credits and what happens when they run out
Credits and Billing
DigiParser uses credits (page credits) to process documents. Each page you process uses 1 credit. Some features use additional credits (e.g. confidence scores, markdown parsing).
How credits work
- 1 credit per page for standard processing
- +1 credit per page if Calculate confidence scores is enabled
- +1 credit per page if Enable markdown parsing is enabled
Example: A 5-page document with confidence scores enabled uses 10 credits (5 for processing + 5 for confidence).
Checking your credits
- Go to your team settings (accessible from Parser Settings → Team Settings links).
- Click Billing & Usage to see your current credits.
What happens when credits run out
If you don't have enough credits to process a document:
- The document is saved but not processed
- You'll see an error message: "You don't have enough page credits available. Required: X, Available: Y"
- Low credit email notifications are sent (rate limited to once per day)
- Documents can be reprocessed once you add credits
Example: If you try to upload a 10-page document but only have 5 credits, the document is saved but stays in "Processing" status until you add more credits.
Adding credits
To add credits:
- Go to Team Settings → Billing & Usage.
- Upgrade your plan or purchase additional credits (depending on your plan).
- Once credits are added, you can re-process documents that failed due to low credits.
Reprocessing after adding credits
After adding credits, documents that failed due to low credits can be reprocessed:
- Go to the Document Inbox.
- Find documents with Failed status (or still in Processing if they never started).
- Click More (⋮) → Re-process document on each document.
Tips
- Monitor credits: Check your credits regularly, especially before processing large batches
- Plan ahead: Estimate how many pages you'll process and ensure you have enough credits
- Disable extra features: Turn off confidence scores or markdown parsing if you don't need them to save credits
- Watch for notifications: You'll get email notifications when credits are low
