# Usage and activity (https://openclip.app/docs/team-and-billing/usage/)



Two pages show where your [credits](https://openclip.app/docs/getting-started/credits-and-plans/) go: a usage chart for your subscription, and a detailed activity ledger per team.

## Usage [#usage]

[https://openclip.app/billing/usage](https://openclip.app/billing/usage) shows your subscription's metered usage:

* **Total usage this period**: the headline number at the top.
* **Monthly usage**: a bar chart of usage per billing period, with exact values on hover.

The data comes from your subscription's usage records in Stripe, so this page is only populated when your team has an active subscription. Without one, the chart is empty.

## Team activity [#team-activity]

[https://openclip.app/billing/activity](https://openclip.app/billing/activity) is the credit ledger. It shows, for one team at a time:

| Element                 | What it shows                                                       |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Team selector           | Switch between the teams you belong to; your current team is marked |
| Available credits       | The team's current credit balance                                   |
| Scheduled change banner | Any pending plan or pack change and the date it takes effect        |
| Activity table          | The team's most recent credit entries (up to 100)                   |

Each row in the activity table has four columns:

| Column  | Meaning                                                                       |
| ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Date    | When the entry happened                                                       |
| Reason  | What caused it, for example a processed video, a top-up, or a plan adjustment |
| Change  | How many credits were added or debited                                        |
| Balance | The balance after the entry                                                   |

Entries that relate to a specific video link back to it, so you can see exactly which upload consumed the credits.

## Reading the ledger [#reading-the-ledger]

* **Debits** come from processing videos and other credit-consuming features, such as [social publishing](https://openclip.app/docs/social-scheduling/).
* **Credits added** come from your monthly plan allocation, one-time top-ups, bonuses, and plan changes. See [Billing](https://openclip.app/docs/team-and-billing/billing/) for top-up options.
* Balances are **per team**. If you belong to several teams, use the selector to check each one. The page defaults to your current team.

## Scheduled changes [#scheduled-changes]

If you have scheduled a downgrade or a Pro pack reduction, the activity page shows a banner like "Changing from Pro to Starter on \[date]" or "Reducing to 2 packs on \[date]". The change takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. To cancel a scheduled change, see [Billing](https://openclip.app/docs/team-and-billing/billing/).

## Checking usage from an agent [#checking-usage-from-an-agent]

If you use the [MCP integration](https://openclip.app/docs/developers/mcp/), the `get_usage` tool returns the same credit balance and recent usage history programmatically.
