Every Coach message consumes Coach Credits (CC) based on how much data the AI processes. More complex requests — especially telemetry traces — cost more.
How credits work
| Concept | Detail |
|---|---|
| Unit | Coach Credits (CC) |
| Minimum | 5 CC required to send a message |
| Billing | Deducted after each Coach response |
| Usage order | Pro monthly allowance first, then purchased packs (Free accounts use purchased packs only) |
Your balance appears in the Coach header and fullscreen view.
Typical cost ranges
Costs vary by question complexity and data loaded. The ranges below match what you see in Coach → Help → Coach Credits (CC) Costs:
| Type | Typical range | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| General chat | 12–45 CC | Career stats, rankings, game knowledge |
| Session analysis | 28–88 CC | Race summary, incidents, stint analysis, community comparison |
| Telemetry trace | 55–130 CC | Corner-specific braking, segment deltas, racing line vs ghost |
Attaching a baseline setup file for change suggestions adds 10 CC when Coach generates a downloadable .svm.
Pro monthly allowance
MyLMU Pro includes 1,000 CC per month while your subscription is active.
- Refreshes on a rolling monthly schedule (not tied to your Stripe billing date)
- Unused allowance does not carry forward to the next period
- Applies before any purchased pack balance
Coach Credit packs
Buy additional credits anytime from the Coach Credits page:
| Pack | Credits |
|---|---|
| LMGT3 Pack | 2,500 CC |
| LMP2 Pack | 7,000 CC |
| Hypercar Pack | 18,000 CC |
Pack names are credit bundle tiers — they are not restricted to a specific car class.
Purchased credits do not expire while your account remains active.
Free accounts can buy packs and use Coach in all modes — General, Session, and Telemetry — as long as you have enough CC. Pro adds the monthly allowance on top of any packs you buy.
Out of credits
If your balance is too low to send a message:
- Buy a Coach Credit pack
- Upgrade to Pro for the monthly allowance
- Start a new chat to avoid carrying a long expensive context
