What are credits

A credit is a single action Quin takes to complete your request—like sending a message, updating a record, or generating a brief. More complex requests use more credits. This article explains how credits work and what typical usage looks like.

What is a credit?

In Quin, a credit is the basic unit of work performed by your assistant. Credits power everything Quin does on your behalf—from sending messages to updating CRM records, drafting follow-ups, or preparing you for meetings.

Each credit represents a single action Quin takes to help you move your work forward. Depending on the complexity of your request, Quin may use just one credit—or combine multiple credits to complete something more advanced.

Think of credits as the "work currency" that fuel your assistant behind the scenes.

What counts as a credit?

A credit might include:

  • Sending a message or email
  • Updating a CRM record
  • Creating or completing a to-do
  • Pulling data from a calendar or CRM
  • Drafting a follow-up summary
  • Analyzing a transcript for key points
  • Generating a daily brief or meeting prep

The number of credits used depends on how much Quin needs to do to fulfill your request.
