As of August 17, 2026, every Final account gets 5,000 free credits per day (up from 500), with monthly ceilings of 10,000 on Free, 22,500 on Plus, and 45,000 on Pro. Monthly plan grants are unchanged. Final Build now defaults to Gemini 3.7 Flash. No action is needed — both changes are automatic.

## Key takeaways

- The free daily credit allowance increased 10× from 500 to 5,000 credits per day on every plan, resetting at midnight.
- Monthly ceilings on the daily pool are now 10,000 (Free), 22,500 (Plus), and 45,000 (Pro) — the daily pool is now the dominant credit source on paid plans.
- Monthly plan grants (5,000 for Plus, 20,000 for Pro with rollover) are unchanged and stack on top of the daily allowance.
- Gemini 3.7 Flash is now the default AI model in Final Build — no action required, existing flows are unaffected.
- The Free plan is a full working tier: up to 10,000 credits a month from the daily allowance alone, double Plus's entire monthly plan grant.

## What changed

Two updates shipped on August 17, 2026 that affect every plan on Final Build.

**1. Free daily credits raised from 500 to 5,000 per day**

Every account — Free, Plus, Pro, and Enterprise — now gets 5,000 free credits per day. That daily allowance resets at midnight and is separate from the monthly credits included in paid plan subscriptions.

The monthly ceiling on the daily pool has also been scaled up:

| Plan | Daily free allowance | Monthly ceiling on daily pool | Monthly plan grant (subscription) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Free | 5,000/day | 10,000/mo | — |
| Plus | 5,000/day | 22,500/mo | 5,000/mo |
| Pro | 5,000/day | 45,000/mo | 20,000/mo (+ 1-month rollover) |
| Enterprise | 5,000/day | Uncapped | Custom |

A few things worth noting:

- **The daily pool is now the dominant source of credits on every paid plan.** On Plus, the daily pool can contribute up to 22,500 credits a month — 4.5× the 5,000-credit monthly plan grant. On Pro, the daily ceiling is 45,000 credits versus a 20,000-credit monthly grant.
- **The Free plan is a full working tier, not a trial.** At up to 10,000 credits a month from the daily allowance alone, Free gives you real capacity to build and iterate — not just a taste.
- **Monthly plan grants are unchanged.** Plus still includes 5,000 plan credits per month; Pro still includes 20,000 plan credits per month with one-month rollover. These stack on top of the daily allowance.
- **The number 5,000 now refers to two different things.** "5,000 free credits a day" is the daily allowance on every plan. "5,000 plan credits a month" is the subscription grant included with Plus. They are separate pools.

**Why upgrade if Free gets 5,000 credits a day?**

The daily allowance is the same across all plans. Paid plans add monthly plan grants (which roll over on Pro), higher monthly ceilings on the daily pool, and access to advanced features — not just more credits. If you're hitting your monthly ceiling or need Pro-tier features like rollover and priority support, that's the signal to move up.

**2. Gemini 3.7 Flash is now the default AI model**

Final Build now runs on Gemini 3.7 Flash across every build lane. The model upgrade is automatic — no action needed. Existing flows are unaffected; new build turns use the updated model.

## What you need to do

Nothing. Both changes are live. Your daily credit allowance updated automatically, and Build is already using Gemini 3.7 Flash.
