How to optimize AI Agent credit usage in Plays

Last updated: April 28, 2025

Setup Credit Usage Optimization

  1. Review your current credit usage in the Settings > Organization > Usage dashboard to identify which Plays are consuming the most credits

  2. For Plays using multiple AI Agents, combine related research questions into a single Agent query. For example: - Instead of having separate Agents for industry qualification and product fit - Create one Agent that researches both criteria at once

  3. Configure the Agent to be referenced multiple times within the Play, rather than creating separate Agent instances

  4. For industry-specific targeting, evaluate whether using the Unify Industry dropdown in audience conditions could replace Agent-based qualification

Usage

When optimizing AI Agent credit usage:

  • Combining multiple research questions into a single Agent can reduce credit consumption by up to 50%

  • Consider the trade-off between using built-in industry classifications (like GICS) versus AI Agent research, especially when targeting specific sectors that may require more granular classification

  • Monitor your credit usage dashboard regularly to identify opportunities for optimization
