Your Data, Your Privacy
We designed plztell.me with privacy in mind. Here's what that means:
- We don't store your queries or AI responses. Your queries and the AI's responses are processed in real-time and discarded. If you have an account, we only store your email and credit balance.
- Your data isn't used to train AI models. We use Google's Gemini API with a paid account, which means your prompts and responses are not used by Google to train or improve their models.
- No tracking across sessions. The free tier doesn't even require an account — we have no way to link your queries to you.

Questions
How does pay-as-you-go work?
Each query costs roughly 1-5 cents depending on length. Top up $10 whenever you need credits. Use at your own pace — credits never expire. No subscriptions, no automatic charges.
How is query cost calculated?
Cost depends on how much text you send and receive. A short question costs ~1 cent. A longer question with piped logs and detailed responses costs ~3-5 cents. Your balance is always visible on your credits page.
What's the difference between the models?
Free uses Gemini 2.0 Flash — fast and efficient for quick questions. Pay-as-you-go uses Gemini 2.5 Pro — Google's smartest model with deeper reasoning, better code understanding, and more nuanced answers.
Is my data stored?
Your queries and AI responses are processed in memory, then discarded — they are never stored. If you have an account, we store only your email and credit balance. We keep minimal operational logs (timestamps, error codes) but not your query content.
Is my data used to train AI?
No. We use Google's Gemini API on a paid plan, which means your data is never used to train or improve their models.
How can I support the project?
Upgrade to pay-as-you-go for the smarter model, or buy us a coffee. Both help keep the free tier free for everyone.
