AI requires Black. One gate covers all of it: AI Auto-Moderation, AI Server Control, the token allowance and AI custom rules.
The allowance
10,000,000 tokens per server, per 30 days. A token is roughly a fragment of a word. Both what Vetox reads and what it writes count toward the total.The allowance refills on a rolling 30-day cycle — the same on a monthly plan and a yearly one. A yearly Black subscription still receives 10 million every 30 days, not 10 million per year.
Two pools
Monthly grant
10,000,000 tokens. Does not roll over — unused tokens are lost at the reset.
Top-up
Purchased tokens. Never expire and survive renewals and plan changes.
Topping up
$1 per 500,000 tokens, in blocks of 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100 units — up to 50 million tokens in one purchase. There is no cap on the balance you can accumulate.Top-ups require a payment method on file. Servers on a staff-granted or complimentary Black tier cannot top up.
What consumes tokens

The two features stop at different points, because a Server Control request needs far more headroom than a single message scan.Reducing spend
