How billing works

Subscribe from /subscribe when signed in. Choose a one-time Premium purchase, or monthly/yearly UPI Autopay (Razorpay mandate). After payment verification your account flips to Premium with a subscription expiry date. You can renew anytime to extend access, and you receive a confirmation email when activation succeeds.

Coupons and affiliate coins

Admins can create percent or fixed coupon codes with usage caps and validity windows. At checkout, enter a code to reduce the amount charged. Any signed-in user can share an affiliate link from Settings; when someone upgrades through that link, the referrer earns Shelf coins (default 10% of the amount paid). Coins apply as credit on one-time upgrades and renewals — no cash payouts.

Who needs Premium

Power users with large PDF corpora, daily Tutor chat across collections, or syllabus docs for multiple exams benefit most. Casual readers who upload a few papers and ask occasional questions often stay comfortably on free.

What Premium adds

More cloud storage for PDFs and notebooks, higher monthly Tutor token limits, and priority headroom for library-wide chat during intensive revision months.

Free tier remains fully usable for daily study — Premium is volume and convenience, not paywalling core reading.

Token budgeting

Tokens measure AI usage — long threads, big attachments, and wide library scope consume more. Dashboard surfaces usage so you are never surprised mid-month.

Premium resets give predictable capacity for mains season.

Storage reality

Ten gigabytes holds thousands of typical exam PDFs — scanning entire coaching institutes still fits if you prune duplicates. One source.pdf per page keeps storage predictable.
