Clarifying Subscription and API Usage for LLM Credits

·Nov 06, 2025 06:20 AM·

Hi! I am looking for buying subscription, but want to clarify one moment - can I connect my own API for LLM's so lindy credits are not used for this? Can i set up everything so credits are used only for building and editing agents, automations and apps?

Also executions? Can I have more details of credit usage?

Hey Ali! Credits are used on either:
Agent/App Builder (if you use the Chat feature)
Any tasks
So at the moment, to answer your question, if you're manually building the Lindy, you will only be charged credits for using using the Lindy. You can track all metrics within Settings -> Billing to see where all credits are going Please let me know if that clarifies!

I mean, let's say I have 10 agents/automations. Won't it be possible that in production mode they'll spend all the tokens? Therefore, I'd like to connect my keys to the LLM API.
