Revenue model

1. Energy/Stamina System: Users receive free daily energy credits for AI generation. The platform operates on a freemium model where basic generation is available for free with daily limits, while heavier usage consumes energy credits that appear to be purchasable or earned through community activities.
2. Premium Energy Credits: Revenue generated from energy credits consumed for premium features and higher-volume generation beyond free daily allocations. Users can earn additional energy through community participation.
