AI actions are monthly credits used for AI-powered features such as optimization, summaries, citation analysis, rewriting, flashcards, quizzes, and supported comparison workflows.
AI actions are used when Cognardo Workbench performs cloud-backed AI work for you. Each plan includes a monthly action pool, with larger pools for heavier LLM workflows.
Prompt optimization, chat summaries, citation checks, explanation, web summaries, rewriting, flashcards, quizzes, and supported comparison workflows.
Monthly AI actions reset each month. Unused monthly actions do not roll over, so every plan starts fresh each billing cycle.
Top-up credits are available on Pro and Max. They are used after your monthly pool runs out and do not expire while your account remains active.
You want to start organizing your AI workflows without paying yet. Free is best for conversation recording, basic prompt saving, a small number of scratchpads and sequences, and a limited monthly AI action pool.
You use LLMs every day and want a real workspace around them: unlimited prompts, more sequences, scratchpads, bulk workflows, citation checks, web capture, bibliography tools, and more AI actions.
LLMs are part of your serious work pipeline and you need unlimited workspace limits, full export formats, more AI actions, premium templates, and priority support.
Paid checkout is handled securely by Paddle. Downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing cycle.
Read the Refund PolicyYes. The Free plan gives you the core Workbench experience with plan limits. You can upgrade later if you need more prompts, sequences, scratchpads, exports, AI actions, templates, or support.
Annual billing means you pay once per year and receive a lower effective monthly price. Pro is $180/year, which works out to $15/month. Max is $348/year, which works out to $29/month.
