Key Insight: Backend tracks content_credits. User sees this as "Content Pieces".
No conversion needed - just rename the display.

Phase 1: Core Abstraction (billingStore)

File: frontend/src/store/billingStore.ts

Add computed properties that translate credits → content pieces:

// Add to BillingState interface
interface BillingState {
  // ... existing ...
  
  // Computed for simple UI
  getContentPiecesRemaining: () => number;
  getContentPiecesUsed: () => number;
  getContentPiecesTotal: () => number;
}

// In the store
getContentPiecesRemaining: () => {
  const balance = get().balance;
  // content_credits = content pieces (1:1 mapping)
  return balance?.credits_remaining ?? 0;
},

getContentPiecesUsed: () => {
  const balance = get().balance;
  return balance?.credits_used_this_month ?? 0;
},

getContentPiecesTotal: () => {
  const balance = get().balance;
  return balance?.plan_credits_per_month ?? 0;
},

Phase 2: Header Metrics Update

File: frontend/src/layout/AppLayout.tsx

Current (line ~138):

{
  label: 'Credits',
  value: balance.credits.toLocaleString(),
  // ...
}

Change to:

{
  label: 'Content',
  value: `${balance.credits_remaining}/${balance.plan_credits_per_month}`,
  tooltip: 'Content pieces remaining this month'
}

Phase 3: Pages to Update

Priority 1: Remove/Hide These Pages

Page File Action
Purchase Credits pages/account/PurchaseCreditsPage.tsx Hide from nav, keep for admin
Credits Tab pages/Billing/Credits.tsx Remove tab from billing
Credits & Billing pages/Settings/CreditsAndBilling.tsx Rename to "Usage"

Priority 2: Update Text/Labels

Page File Changes
Dashboard pages/Dashboard/Home.tsx "Credits" → "Content Pieces"
Plans & Billing pages/account/PlansAndBillingPage.tsx Remove Credits tab, simplify
Usage Analytics pages/account/UsageAnalyticsPage.tsx "Credits" → "Content"
Automation pages/Automation/AutomationPage.tsx "credits" → "content pieces"
Help pages/Help/Help.tsx Update FAQ text

Priority 3: Marketing Pages

Page File Changes
Pricing marketing/pages/Pricing.tsx Already updated per session
Waitlist marketing/pages/Waitlist.tsx Update copy

Phase 4: Components to Update

High Priority

Component File Changes
CreditBalanceWidget components/dashboard/CreditBalanceWidget.tsx Rename to ContentBalanceWidget
BillingBalancePanel components/billing/BillingBalancePanel.tsx Remove "Purchase Credits" link
BillingUsagePanel components/billing/BillingUsagePanel.tsx Simplify display
CurrentProcessingCard components/Automation/CurrentProcessingCard.tsx "Credits Used" → "Content Generated"
RunHistory components/Automation/RunHistory.tsx Same

Medium Priority (Can ship with these unchanged)

Component File Notes
CreditCostBreakdownPanel components/billing/CreditCostBreakdownPanel.tsx Admin only, keep
CreditCostsPanel components/billing/CreditCostsPanel.tsx Admin only, keep
UsageChartWidget components/dashboard/UsageChartWidget.tsx Keep for analytics

Phase 5: Routes to Update

File: frontend/src/App.tsx

Remove from user routes:

// Remove or hide:
<Route path="/account/purchase-credits" element={<PurchaseCreditsPage />} />
<Route path="/billing/credits" element={<Credits />} />

Keep for admin access only (add admin check)

Phase 6: Terminology Mapping

Use this mapping consistently:

OLD (Backend/Internal) NEW (User-Facing)
credits content pieces
credit balance content remaining
credits used content generated
plan_credits_per_month monthly content limit
credits_remaining content pieces left
insufficient credits content limit reached
purchase credits upgrade plan

Phase 7: Error Messages

File: Create frontend/src/utils/userFriendlyMessages.ts

export const USER_MESSAGES = {
  INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS: "You've reached your content limit for this month. Upgrade your plan for more.",
  CREDIT_DEDUCTED: "Content piece generated successfully",
  LOW_BALANCE: "You're running low on content pieces this month",
  
  // Operation-specific
  CLUSTERING_SUCCESS: "Keywords organized into topics",
  IDEAS_SUCCESS: "Content ideas generated",
  CONTENT_SUCCESS: "Article draft created",
  IMAGES_SUCCESS: "Images generated",
};

Implementation Order

Day 1: Core Changes (Ship Blocker)

  1. Update billingStore.ts with computed properties
  2. Update AppLayout.tsx header metric
  3. Update PlansAndBillingPage.tsx - remove Credits tab
  4. Hide Purchase Credits route (don't delete)

Day 2: Dashboard & Key Pages

  1. Update Dashboard/Home.tsx labels
  2. Update UsageAnalyticsPage.tsx labels
  3. Update AutomationPage.tsx labels
  4. Update Help.tsx FAQ content

Day 3: Components & Polish

  1. Rename CreditBalanceWidget → ContentBalanceWidget
  2. Update BillingBalancePanel
  3. Update CurrentProcessingCard
  4. Update RunHistory

Day 4: Marketing & Final

  1. Verify Pricing page is correct
  2. Update Waitlist/Tour pages
  3. Update SignUp form text
  4. Final QA pass

What NOT to Change

Keep these exactly as-is:

  1. Backend API endpoints - All /v1/billing/* endpoints
  2. Database models - CreditBalance, CreditUsage, etc.
  3. Credit deduction logic - In business services
  4. Admin pages - Keep full credit visibility for admins
  5. API responses - Backend still returns credits, frontend translates

Backend Soft Limits (Already Implemented)

Per the pricing session, backend should enforce:

Limit Starter Growth Scale
Content pieces/mo 50 200 500
Keyword imports/mo 500 2,000 5,000
Clustering ops/mo 100 400 1,000
Idea generations/mo 150 600 1,500

If not implemented: These are hidden from user but prevent abuse. Add backend validation in:

  • backend/igny8_core/business/billing/services.py

Quick Wins (Can Do Now)

1. Header Metric (5 min)

In AppLayout.tsx, change:

label: 'Credits',

to:

label: 'Content',

2. Help FAQ (5 min)

In Help.tsx, update the credits question to:

question: "How does content usage work?"
answer: "Each plan includes a monthly content allowance. Creating articles, generating ideas, and producing images all count toward your monthly limit. View your usage in Settings > Usage."

3. Hide Purchase Credits Link (5 min)

In BillingBalancePanel.tsx, remove or conditionally hide:

<Link to="/account/purchase-credits">Purchase Credits</Link>

Testing Checklist

Before production:

  • User can see "47/50 Content" in header (not "835 Credits")
  • Plans page shows content pieces, not credits
  • No "Purchase Credits" visible to regular users
  • Automation shows "Content Generated: 5" not "Credits Used: 5"
  • Error on limit shows "Content limit reached" not "Insufficient credits"
  • Dashboard shows simple progress bar with content count
  • Help/FAQ explains content pieces, not credits

Summary

Total effort: ~2-3 days of frontend work
Backend changes: Zero
Risk: Low (display-only changes)
Rollback: Easy (revert frontend only)

The system still tracks everything internally with credits. Users just see a simpler "content pieces" model that maps 1:1 to content credits.
