Conversations, content generation, app automation, and other AI-powered tasks in PlugClaw rely on model calls. These calls process Tokens, and the API Token service provided by PlugClaw is tied to an account. Signing in allows PlugClaw to identify and manage the service associated with that account.

Signing in does more than open the PlugClaw interface. It connects model usage, the credit balance, payment records, and usage records to the same account. PlugClaw can then confirm that sufficient credits are available and record the Tokens and credits consumed by each model call.

What Sign-In Makes Available

• Model access: Use the API Token service associated with the account to call configured AI models.
• Credit balance: Check the remaining credits and whether model services can continue to run.
• Payment records: Confirm whether a credit purchase has been added to the account and review its order status.
• Usage records: Review the model, Token quantities, and credits charged for individual calls.
• Model settings: Configure Base Text Model and GUI Model from the models currently available to the account.

The relationship among these parts is straightforward: the account identifies who the service belongs to, the API Token service connects PlugClaw to AI models, and credits cover the cost of the Tokens processed by those models. Keeping them under the same account makes model usage traceable and manageable.

Before Signing In

PlugClaw supports sign-in by phone number or email address. During the first sign-in, a region must also be selected. This choice affects the AI services available to the account and where data is stored.

Signing out ends the current account session on the device. Model access and credit services associated with that account become unavailable until an account is signed in again.

For instructions on signing in, signing out, and configuring models, see PlugClaw Operation Guide > Account Login and Model Settings. For an explanation of the credit balance used by model services, see What Are Credits?.
