Understanding Credits at QuickHome
QuickHome uses a simple credit system to make pricing flexible, predictable, and aligned with how real estate listings actually work.
Quick Summary
- 1 credit = 1 enhancement on 1 photo
- Credits flex based on what each photo needs
- Typical listings use 30–48 credits, depending on enhancement type
- Monthly plans are designed to absorb normal variability
What Is a Credit?
A credit represents one AI enhancement applied to one photo.
An enhancement is any meaningful AI operation that changes how a photo looks, such as:
- Decluttering or object removal
- Furniture removal
- Virtual staging
- Virtual renovation previews (flooring, cabinets, etc.)
- Exterior improvements (sky, grass, twilight)
- Perspective correction or reframing
Simple rule: 1 enhancement = 1 credit
If a photo receives:
- • One enhancement → 1 credit
- • Two enhancements → 2 credits
- • Three enhancements → 3 credits
Good to know: Baseline improvements like lighting balance, color correction, and general image cleanup are always included and do not consume additional credits.
How Credits Are Used in Practice
Most photos only need one primary enhancement. Some need none. A smaller number need multiple enhancements, such as a living room that is decluttered and then virtually staged.
Credits are designed to flex naturally based on what each photo actually needs, rather than forcing all photos into the same price.
This approach ensures:
- Simple listings stay inexpensive
- More complex listings remain predictable
- You only pay for work that is actually applied
Thinking in Listings, Not Photos
Although credits are applied at the photo level, most customers think in credits per listing, not credits per photo. Credits naturally roll up from individual photos into a per-listing total, which makes monthly planning straightforward.
Typical Credit Usage Per Listing
Below are common averages based on real-world usage. These examples assume approximately 20 photos per listing.
These are typical averages, not hard limits. Most listings fall comfortably within these ranges.
How Credits Scale Across a Listing
Within a single listing:
- Many photos use 1 or 2 credits
- A small number use 2–3 credits
- Heavier enhancement photos are the exception, not the norm
This blended usage is why a credit-based system is more accurate and fair than flat per-photo pricing.
Estimating Your Monthly Credit Needs

- 1How many listings you require new photos for
- 2How many photos per listing you typically use
- 3Which enhancement type best matches your workflow

Credits provide a better experience than per-photo pricing because they:
- Reflect the real work applied to each photo
- Adapt to different listing types
- Stay predictable at the listing level
- Avoid overcharging simple listings
Instead of guessing upfront, credits adjust naturally to what each listing requires.
