Understanding LeapOCR's credit-based pricing system

Pricing

Simple, Usage-Based Pricing

LeapOCR uses a transparent credit system—you only pay for the pages you process. No hidden fees, no surprises.


How It Works

Every document page you process consumes credits based on:

  1. The OCR model you choose (base cost)
  2. Whether you use advanced features (optional surcharge)

Model Pricing

Choose the right model for your needs:

ModelCredits/PageIdeal Use Case
Standard v11 creditEveryday documents—invoices, receipts, forms
English Pro v12 creditsEnglish-only documents requiring premium accuracy
Pro v13 creditsComplex layouts, mixed languages, handwriting

Which Model Should I Choose?

  • Standard v1: Perfect for most business documents with clear text
  • English Pro v1: Best for legal, financial, or technical English documents
  • Pro v1: Handles challenging cases like handwritten notes, tables, or multilingual content

Advanced Features

Structured Output & Custom Instructions

Need more than just text? Extract specific data into JSON format or apply custom processing rules.

Surcharge: +2 credits per page (any model)

ModelBase CostWith Advanced FeaturesTotal

English Pro v12 credits+2 credits4 credits/page
Pro v13 credits+2 credits5 credits/page

Note: Basic OCR (markdown output) has no surcharge. You only pay extra when using structured JSON extraction or custom instructions.


Pricing Examples

Basic Document Processing

  • 100-page contract (Standard v1): 100 × 1 = 100 credits
  • 50-page manual (Pro v1): 50 × 3 = 150 credits

Structured Data Extraction

  • 20 invoices with JSON extraction (Standard v1): 20 × 3 = 60 credits
  • 100 forms with custom validation (English Pro v1): 100 × 4 = 400 credits

Credit Management

How Credits Work

Credits are included in your subscription plan ✓ Unused credits roll over within your billing cycle ✓ Buy additional credits anytime if needed ✓ Real-time balance tracking in your dashboard

When Are Credits Used?

  1. Reserved when you upload a document
  2. Consumed after successful processing
  3. Automatically refunded if processing fails

Smart Cost Optimization

1. Match Model to Task

Don't overpay—use Standard v1 for straightforward documents, reserve Pro models for complex cases.

2. Batch Process Documents

Process multiple files together to maximize efficiency.

3. Use Basic OCR When Possible

Only enable structured output when you actually need JSON extraction.

4. Monitor Your Usage

Track consumption patterns in your dashboard to identify savings opportunities.


Transparent Billing

Check Before You Process

View your current credit balance in your dashboard before processing documents. All API requests automatically deduct credits based on the model and features used.

// Process with automatic credit deduction
const result = await client.ocr.processURL(documentUrl, {
  format: "structured",
  model: "standard-v1",
});

Low Balance Protection

  • Dashboard alerts when credits run low
  • API errors prevent processing with insufficient credits
  • Real-time tracking so you're never surprised

Refund Policy

  • Instant refunds for failed jobs
  • Full refunds for incomplete processing
  • No questions asked—credits return to your account immediately

Credit Calculation Formula

Total Credits = Pages × (Base Cost + Surcharge)

Where:
- Pages = Number of pages in your document
- Base Cost = Model-specific credits per page
- Surcharge = 0 (basic OCR) or 2 (structured output/custom instructions)

Example Calculation

Processing a 10-page invoice with structured output using Standard v1:

Total = 10 pages × (1 base + 2 surcharge) = 30 credits
