Pricing and Terms
TruSmile Video is being offered as a pay-per-use model, with micropayments using pre-paid “credits”. During the Early Access phase, users will get two free TruSmile Video generations at no charge, plus two free TruSmile Photo generations. To generate additional videos or photos, you can purchase “exocad credits” for TruSmile video.
You can see the number of credits available to you under “My Credits”, after logging in to the my.exocad portal. Here, you can also find the link to purchase additional credits through our shop.
Note: If you do not see the “My Credits” menu item on my.exocad, it means that your my.exocad account is not eligible for exocad credits yet. In addition, you can see the list of available cloud features in your market under “Services”.
Please check that your account is indeed associated to a lab or clinic in the EU or US. Contact [email protected] for help.
