What is credits?
Credits are the currency of CircleCI. Credits are purchased up-front and are used to pay for CircleCI platform usage in real time. Platform usage consists of:
- Monthly active users – By using credits to pay for monthly active users, your organization is never restricted to a static number of active users each month.
- Compute time – Each resource type on CircleCI has an associated credits-per-minute price. Your credits are used in real time whenever your organization is actively using a compute resource on CircleCI.
- Add-on features – Some features of CircleCI have additional credit costs associated with them. These costs may be represented in credits per use or in credits per minute.
- Additional network & storage use – network and storage utilization beyond the plan-specified thresholds is charged at 420 credits per GB.
CircleCI Acquires Ponicode Unit Test for Improved Code Analysis
CircleCI, a leading continuous integration and delivery platform, has acquired Ponicode Unit Test, an advanced AI engine designed to analyze source code and provide insights to help developers write better code and manage change more effectively. This acquisition is aimed at helping software teams innovate faster by improving the quality of their code and increasing their productivity.
Ponicode Unit Test is a powerful tool that uses machine learning algorithms to identify bugs, vulnerabilities, and other issues in code, as well as provide suggestions for improvements. It can be integrated seamlessly into the development process, allowing developers to test their code automatically and quickly identify and fix errors before they become major issues.
With CircleCI’s acquisition of Ponicode Unit Test, developers can expect to see significant improvements in their code quality and productivity. The AI engine will enable them to write better code more efficiently, while also reducing the risk of errors and other issues that can slow down the development process.
Overall, this acquisition is a major step forward for CircleCI and its commitment to providing developers with the tools they need to build high-quality software quickly and efficiently.
Frequently asked questions from Credits
1. Do credits expire?
Credits on the free plan expire after a month and do not roll over.
The Performance plan includes the 30,000 credits available to the Free plan; these expire and do not roll over month to month.
Performance plan users may purchase additional credits at $15 for every 25,000 credits. Any paid credits roll over month to month, and expire after a year.
Unused credits will be forfeited if the account subscription is canceled.
2. How do CircleCI credits translate to build minutes?
Example: 30,000 credits at a rate of 10 credits per min (using Linux Medium) is 3,000 minutes.
It’s important to note that a minute on CircleCI is different than a minute on other CI platforms. Access to more powerful resources, Docker Layer Caching, as well as concurrency and parallelism mean you can do more in a minute on CircleCI than anywhere else.
