Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before downloading.

Is it really free?

Yes. The app itself is free and open source (MIT license). Two models (GLM-4.6V-Flash and Qwen-Turbo) are free forever with no limits. You also get $0.50 in credits on signup to try all 7 models. After that, you only pay for what you use — starting from $0.14 per million tokens.

How does it compare to GitHub Copilot?

Copilot charges $10-19/month as a flat subscription. NovAI Coder is pay-as-you-go with no subscription. For moderate usage, DeepSeek V3.2 costs ~$18/month with better model variety (7 models vs Copilot's 2-3). Light users pay far less — or nothing at all with the free models.

Do I need a Chinese phone number?

No. NovAI handles all upstream authentication with Chinese AI providers. You sign up with email only — no phone verification, no ID check, no credit card required to start.

What about latency?

NovAI runs from Hong Kong with direct peering to Chinese AI providers. Time to first token is under 80ms for Asia-Pacific users and around 200ms globally — comparable to or faster than US-based alternatives.

Is my code safe?

The app is open source — you can inspect every line of code on GitHub. Your API key is stored locally on your machine. Code is processed through NovAI's API gateway with the same security as any cloud AI provider.

Will there be a macOS / Linux version?

Yes, macOS and Linux support is planned. The current release supports Windows 10/11. Star the GitHub repo to get notified when cross-platform builds are available.

How do I pay for credits?

You can top up your NovAI balance with PayPal (available in 200+ countries) or USDT (TRC20). No credit card required. Minimum top-up is $1 with PayPal or $5 with USDT.
