What is Token?

Published

The language model doesn’t read letter by letter or word by word. It breaks the text into pieces called tokens. A short word may be one token; a long one may become several.

What matters to you is this: requests that change a lot of things and very long conversations use more tokens. Some tools, like Bolt, measure the plan’s limit in tokens. Others use “credits”, which work in a similar way.

If you’ve hit your limit, see what to do when your credits run out.
