Membership Benefits
Module Overviewβ
The Benefits module helps you manage membership plans, view resource usage, and purchase Credits. The platform offers two membership systems β Individual and Team β with unified control over membership permissions, computing quotas, and subscription payments.
Core Universal Rule: Credits are used for computing power consumption across all features including AI literature interpretation, research exploration, scientific drawing, and research experiments. Credits granted by plans and recharges never expire, and plan expiration does not affect your existing Credits balance.
Accessβ
In Personal Space, click the "My Benefits" button to enter the individual benefits page; in Team Space, click the "Team Benefits" button to enter the team benefits page.
Eligible Rolesβ
All users can purchase individual or team membership benefits as needed.
