Plans and credits

Screening is included. Credits are for the checks you ask Carmen to run.

01

Screening is included

Screening is included and never uses credits. Credits are used only when a person asks for a check, including a deeper check on something Carmen already flagged, or a repeat check.

Fair use

Automatic screening is included and never uses credits. It is built for normal use of one person's inbox, texts, browsing and the other things Carmen watches on its own. There is a fair use limit on that screening. We do not publish the number here. If you are approaching it, Carmen tells you before anything changes.

03

The depth you ask for

Carmen Light uses 5 credits, Carmen Basic 25 and Carmen Advanced 250, on every paid plan. Carmen Advanced comes with a written report, and the PDF download is free.
