How Tokens Work
Teta uses a token-based system where AI interactions consume tokens. Tokens represent the amount of text processed by the AI (both input and output).Token Consumption
Tokens are consumed when:- You send a message to the AI
- The AI reads and understands your code
- The AI generates or modifies code
- The AI performs research or analysis
- The AI uses external tools (MCP servers)
- Browsing the UI
- Viewing preview
- Using hot reload/restart
- Reading documentation
- Configuring settings
What Affects Token Usage?
The number of tokens used depends on:- Request length: Longer prompts use more tokens
- Response length: More complex code generation uses more tokens
- Context: The AI needs to read related code files
- Iterations: Multiple back-and-forth messages add up
- MCP usage: Accessing external tools may increase token use
- Agents: Custom agents may also increase the tokens use

Teta offers three main pricing tiers, each with increasing token allowances.Available Plans

Understanding Token Usage
How to Monitor Your Usage
Teta provides detailed usage statistics:- Go to Settings > Pricing/Subscription
- View complete usage stats
- Track token consumption over the billing period
Optimizing Token Usage
1. Be Specific and Concise
Clear, focused requests use fewer tokens: β Avoid:2. Batch Related Changes
Combine multiple small changes into one request: β Uses more tokens (3 separate messages):3. Use Preview Controls First
Before asking the AI:- Try Hot Reload for UI changes
- Check console for error messages
- Test different device modes
4. Learn from AI Responses
The AI explains its changes. Use this to handle similar tasks yourself next time:5. Use AI Agents
Create AI agents for repetitive patterns:- Define coding standards once
- Agent applies them automatically
- Reduces need for detailed instructions each time
Team Collaboration
