What stays free?
Public Explore and Dystiny guides are free. Opening or shaping a question does not use a credit. Exact cached answers and reopened stored material also remain free.
Search credits, clearly explained
Browse freely. Use a credit only for a successful new answer.
Dystiny keeps public exploration separate from new answer generation. You can browse Explore, read the guides, shape a question, and reopen stored material without spending a search credit.
No purchase occurs on this page. Dystiny shows the current pack size and price before checkout.
Four useful boundaries
Know what happens before you choose the next step.
When is a credit used?
A credit is committed only after a successful new answer. A new related answer or “Refresh current evidence” action is labeled as one credit before you choose it.
What do you receive?
Guests may receive three successful new searches. A new account receives one grant of 10 free search credits, subject to anti-abuse limits.
How are paid packs shown?
The signed-in Credits view shows the current pack size and price before checkout. Packs are one-time purchases, and purchased credits do not expire.
One direct answer
Does browsing Dystiny Explore use a search credit?
No. Reading public Explore answers and their sources does not use a search credit. A credit is used only after a new Dystiny search runs successfully.

A simple example
Prepare first, run only when the question is ready.
Use the Question Guide to choose a question shape or the Source Guide to choose an evidence role. Both paths can carry a draft into Search without submitting it. Review the wording, check the balance shown beside Search, then decide whether to run the question.
Transparent before purchase
Review the current quantity and price before checkout.
Credit packs are one-time purchases. Taxes may apply, and purchase terms are shown in Dystiny's Terms. You can create an account and use the included free grant before deciding whether a paid pack fits your use.
