When you create a Loophole AI & Tools problem, your Problem Dashboard is included free for the first 30 days. After that, a small daily maintenance fee applies to keep your Problem Dashboard active.
How it works
Included free | First 30 days |
Daily fee after | 0.033 Research Console credits/day |
Monthly equivalent | ~1 Research Console credit per 30 days |
This fee covers the ongoing computing, storage, and AI resources required to maintain your active Problem Dashboard - including keeping your problem data accessible, monitoring for updates, and preserving your full activity history.
When does the fee apply?
The daily fee begins automatically on day 31 after your Problem Dashboard is created. You don't need to do anything - it's charged from your available Research Console credits each day.
Important: The daily fee applies to both active and paused problems. Pausing a problem does not stop the maintenance fee.
What if I don't have enough credits?
Each day, 0.033 credits are deducted from your active Research Console credit. Over roughly 30 days, this gradually fills that credit to 100%. When it does, the system automatically activates the next Research Console credit from your remaining balance.
If you don't have any remaining credits available to activate, your problem will be placed on credit hold and all automations will stop. The daily maintenance fee will continue to be applied while your problem is on credit hold, so we recommend purchasing additional credits as soon as possible.
You'll receive an email notification when your problem is placed on credit hold.
If you do not purchase additional credits within 10 days of being placed on credit hold, your problem will be permanently cancelled for non-payment. Cancelled problems are not eligible for a refund.
How do I stop the daily fee?
The only way to stop the daily maintenance fee is to mark your problem as Completed or Solved.
Once your problem reaches one of these final statuses, the daily fee stops immediately.
Problem Status | Daily Fee? |
Active | ✓ Yes (after 30 days) |
Paused | ✓ Yes (after 30 days) |
Completed | ✗ No |
Solved | ✗ No |
Where can I see these charges?
All daily maintenance fees are logged in your Problem Logs. You can view them by:
Opening your Problem Dashboard
Clicking View Logs
Looking for daily maintenance entries
Quick math
0.033 credits/day × 30 days = ~1 Research Console credit/month
If your problem runs for 90 days beyond the included period, that's roughly 2 Research Console credits in maintenance fees (first 30 days are included).
Tips
If your problem is resolved, mark it as Completed or Solved promptly to stop daily fees
Pausing your problem will not stop the fee - only completion does
Check your Problem Logs periodically to track maintenance charges
