Fable and premium models
How Claude Fable and the other premium models are unlocked and charged.
Fable uses credits
Claude Fable 5.1 is Anthropic's most capable model and the most expensive to run. Each Fable generation uses 10 credits on a Pro or Max plan.
- Without a plan, Fable (like every model) shows a lock; choosing it opens the plan window.
- On a paid plan with fewer than 10 credits, you'll be asked to top up or pick another model.
- A failed or busy Fable request is never charged.
Other premium models
All premium models work the same way: a plan unlocks them and each generation uses its listed credits. Pick the cheaper ones (Sonnet, GPT-6.1 Sol, Gemini 4 Argon) for everyday changes and save Fable or GPT-6 Astra for the hardest parts of a build.
"isn't available right now"
Occasionally a provider has an outage or a model is temporarily unavailable on Appfully. You'll see a message, nothing is charged, and you can pick another model.
