AI Copilot: Choosing a different model for different costs

When using AI Copilot chat, Leanbase automatically selects the best AI model by default. However, you can adjust costs by choosing a different model:

  • Open the Select AI Model dropdown at the bottom of your prompt.

  • Each model displays a Quality grade (A–C) and a Cost multiplier of the base credit value.

  • Example: Selecting a model with a cost of 0.1x means you can send 10x more prompts for the same credit balance.

Keep in mind:

  • Higher-quality models typically deliver stronger reasoning and more accurate results.

  • Different models have unique cost profiles, based on their provider’s pricing.

  • Currently, Leanbase defaults to OpenAI ChatGPT-5

How credits rollover

  • The monthly credits included in your Leanbase plan do not roll over. At the start of each new month, your included credit balance is reset to the plan’s allocation.

  • Any extra credits you purchase will roll over and remain available until you use them up—there’s no monthly reset for purchased credits.
