# Alexandria integration is easy, but are frequent credit top-ups worth it?

I found Alexandria easy to integrate into my software and it helps save usage tokens. The downside is the cost, since I end up topping up credits often. Even with the frequent top-offs, it still feels cheaper than running high-dollar AI models without it. How are others balancing the pricing and credit usage, and has it been worth it for you?

I’ve had a similar experience: it’s been extremely helpful overall and I end up using it for a lot of different problems, from studying to work. The only real downside for me is how quickly the credits can deplete, which makes it feel expensive at times. Even so, the breadth of problems it helps me solve has made it feel beneficial enough to keep using.

I’m in the same boat on credits: Alexandria covers all my scraping needs and keeps the workflow straightforward, but I’d love more credits for a lower price. For me it’s still been worth it because I’m scraping tens of thousands of webpages across multiple sites, which keeps the content fresh and helps me keep my own websites updated.
