AI chat
from ~3 / req
Cost depends on the model you pick in /model. Light tiers (Gemini Flash, GPT Mini, Claude Haiku) are cheap; top tiers (Claude Opus, GPT 5.2) cost more per request.
One balance,
every Doublegram bot.
One balance for chat, images, vision and automations on Doublegram AI, and for the AI features of Scribe. Voice transcription stays free.
Typical cost per action
The exact cost of the model you are using is always visible in /model and /status inside the bot. Below are the stable extras: vision, web search, images and automations.
Image generation
X / img
Dedicated model (GPT Image, Imagen 3): the per-image cost is separate from your chat model and shown on the buttons in /model → Image Model.
Vision (photo analysis)
model + 1
Send a photo with a caption and ask a question: you pay your active model price plus 1 extra credit for the image. Works with Gemini text models.
Real-time web search
+ 5 / req
When your question needs up-to-date data, the bot searches via Perplexity: 5 extra credits on top of the model cost, only when search actually runs.
Refine (Longer / Shorter / Regenerate)
= new req
The Edit buttons under AI replies count as a new request. Failed attempts are not charged.
Scheduled automations
per run
Each scheduled run costs like a normal request (model + optional search/image/duplicate-check). Cap your spend with /budget.
Where credits are used
The two bots treat credits differently. A few lines below: what actually drains your balance and what stays free.
Scribe
Voice transcription and AI features right inside your Telegram chats.
Uses credits for
- AI replies about chat history ("what did Marco say yesterday?")
- Natural-language reminders and conversation summaries
- AI chat with the bot in private
Voice message transcription is always free, including in groups.
Doublegram AI
Chat with Claude, GPT, Gemini and Grok inside Telegram.
Uses credits for
- AI chat replies (cost depends on the model picked in /model)
- Image generation, vision and real-time web search
- Scheduled automations and reply refines
Three ways to get credits
A monthly allowance included with Core, a one-time bonus when you first link your account, and top-up packs whenever you need more — without changing plan.
Everything you need to know about credits
Does my balance expire?
No. Your balance never expires and follows your Doublegram account, not a single Telegram profile. It stays yours even if you change plan or link new Telegram accounts.
Are credits shared across bots?
Yes. The same balance works on Doublegram AI, Scribe and every other Doublegram bot linked to your account. Multiple Telegram accounts linked to the same Doublegram profile also share one balance.
Does the Free plan include credits?
No. Free gives access to the bots and to the free features (like Scribe voice transcription), but does not include AI credits. To try them without paying, use the welcome bonus you get the first time you link your account.
What happens if a request fails?
Nothing. Credits are only charged when the request actually succeeds. Errors, timeouts, failed refines and models that don't respond cost nothing.
Can I cap how much I spend?
Yes. Inside Doublegram AI the /budget command lets you set a spending cap per day, week or month — the bot notifies you in Telegram when you get close to the limit.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, within 15 days of purchase if the credits haven't been used yet. We review each request case by case — reach out via Help Center → Chat support.
