Why did CoinMarketCap create CMC AI?
While general AI tools are helpful for learning, they lack deep crypto data. Leveraging our crypto expertise, we built an AI specialised in cryptocurrencies to make research-grade analysis accessible to all.
Yes. CMC AI is available across many pages on CMC and suggested questions are free and easy to use. Ask CMC AI allows you to ask your own custom question. All logged in users have access to 200 free credits a month, which allows you to ask up to 20 questions per month. If you'd to ask more questions, we offer 3 paid tiers that you can explore on https://coinmarketcap.com/cmc-ai/ask/#subscribe. How many credits does each question consume?
It depends on the complexity of your question and the model you select. Our Core model consumes 1 to 10 credits per question. Our Pro model consumes 1 to 50 credits per question. For example, a “Hello CMC AI” message on our Core or Pro model will consume less credits than a “Why is the market up today?” question.
How is “complexity” determined for credit usage?
Complexity is tied to the amount of data CMC AI gathered to answer your question and the amount of reasoning effort required to provide your answer. For example, analysing 1 cryptocurrency typically requires less data and reasoning effort than analysing a basket of cryptocurrencies.
Do long answers use more credits than short answers?
The number of credits is not determined solely by the length of the answer. Background processes like data analysis and reasoning consumes credits.
When do my monthly credits reset each cycle?
If you are a free user, your cycle starts on the first day of your usage and credits reset the same day next month. If you are a paid user, your cycle starts the first day you paid for your subscription and credits reset upon successful payment the same day the next month.
What happens to unused credits at the end of each cycle?
Unused credits expire at the end of each cycle for both free and paid tiers.
What happens if I run out of credits before the month ends?
You can check out one of our paid plans! Currently, our plans support up to 50k credits per month which allows you to ask up to a 5k questions every month.
Are there annual plans or discounts available?
What payment methods do you support?
Currently, we offer payment via credit card on Stripe.
Where can I contact support about billing or credit issues?
What AI models does CMC AI use?
Across our agentic workflows, we use more than 10 LLMs. Each are selected after thorough reviews to maximise the usefulness of the insights CMC AI provides you.
What data does CMC AI have access to?
On top of live data you see on CoinMarketCap, CMC AI processes in real time data from X (previously Twitter) to understand social sentiment and from many trusted crypto data providers to extend CMC AI's crypto data beyond what you see on CoinMarketCap.
Can I access CMC AI through an API?
