Can I create articles with zero credits?

What still works at 0 credits

• Manual article creation and editing

• Publishing manually created or edited articles

• Your published help center stays live

• Fern's recommendations

• Analytics, widgets, and integrations

What requires credits

Any article Fern publishes consumes one credit, whether it's a new article or an update to an existing one. At zero credits, you'll see an error if you try to publish through Fern.
