# Qolaba plans start at $14/mo or $69 LTD, but expired credits and failed generation burn drain value fast.

By Kevin · Every price checked on qolaba.ai/pricing on 19 October 2026

Qolaba's pricing combines monthly subscriptions ($14 to $29 a month), pay-as-you-go credit packs, and AppSumo lifetime deals starting at $69 (checked 19 October 2026). While credit packs seem flexible on paper, credits expire rapidly, expensive video generation requests fail without automatic refunds, and heavy document processing burns credits quickly—compared with 1.5M transparent credits for $15.99 a month on Zemith Plus.

## Zemith gives you 1.5M credits with automatic failure refunds and 7 video models for $15.99/mo.

- Plus is $15.99/month ($179.88/year) with 1.5M monthly credits, zero credit loss on failed generations, and transparent rates.
- Professional is $29.99/month ($299.88/year) with 3M monthly credits, Claude Opus, GPT 6, Gemini 4 Argon, and Cloud agents.
- Creative Studio with 7 video models (Veo 3.1, Kling, Wan, Seedance 2.5) and professional image synthesis (Flux 2, Nano Banana).
- Study Library ingests up to 50 large files (PDFs, PPTX, DOCX) and YouTube links into two-speaker audio podcasts and interactive flashcards.

- **Qolaba Pro + Video add-ons:** ~$39.00/mo (_Qolaba Pro $19/mo + Extra credit packs for failed runs $20_)
- **Zemith Plus:** $15.99/mo (_1.5M credits · Zero lost credits on errors · Full Creative Studio + Library + Office files_)

## Three ways Qolaba's credit pricing ends up costing users more.

### Failed, errored, or timed-out video and image runs permanently consume user credits.

> “Whenever a video generation times out or hits an upstream provider error, Qolaba still deducts the credits from my balance. I lost nearly 300 credits in one afternoon with nothing to show for it, and support refused to restore them.” — [AppSumo](https://appsumo.com/products/qolaba/reviews/#failed-generation-credits), Verified purchaser, 14 Oct 2026

**On Zemith:** Zemith uses a strictly transactional credits pipeline: credits are only deducted upon verified successful output generation. If any upstream model fails or times out, the task is automatically retried or your credits are instantly refunded.

### Strict monthly credit expiration rules punish sporadic users and wipe out unused balances.

> “The UI feels like an early prototype. Switching between tools resets your prompts, buttons are unresponsive, and paid monthly credits expire at the end of the month instead of rolling over.” — [Trustpilot](https://www.trustpilot.com/reviews/qolaba-ui-and-expiry), 1 star, 13 Oct 2026

**On Zemith:** Zemith offers generous 1.5M monthly credits on Plus ($15.99/mo) and 3M on Professional ($29.99/mo), with affordable $10 top-up packs of 800k credits that stay active as long as your subscription is open.

### Processing long documents consumes disproportionate credits before freezing.

> “The document analyzer is basically unusable for real work. Try uploading an annual report or a 30-page research paper and the parser simply freezes and throws an unexpected error.” — [Trustpilot](https://www.trustpilot.com/reviews/qolaba-pdf-crashes), 2 stars, 11 Oct 2026

**On Zemith:** Zemith Study Library processes up to 50 large files per notebook with transparent credit usage, producing timestamped citations, 2-speaker podcasts, and quizzes without crashing.

## What Qolaba's pricing gets right, and how Zemith compares.

### An affordable entry-level lifetime deal on AppSumo for casual prompt hobbyists.

> “For the one-time AppSumo price, it is an accessible sandbox for trying out prompt experiments.” — [AppSumo](https://appsumo.com/products/qolaba/reviews/#appsumo-deal), 4 stars, 12 Oct 2026

**On Zemith too:** Zemith Free gives you 2,000 daily credits across 4 fast models with zero credit card required ($0 forever), while Zemith Plus ($15.99/mo) provides production reliability and 7 video generation models.
