Hugging Face: Free Hugging Face users can now continue past monthly credits by purchasing credits (pay-as-you-go previously PRO/Team/Enterprise only).
Old Free users: $0.10 monthly credits, no pay-as-you-go
New Free users: $0.10 monthly credits plus pay-as-you-go with purchased credits
Why it matters: If you are on or choosing a HF Inference Providers (free users PAYG) plan, this changes what the plan includes or how it is billed. The source does not state a separate effective date.
