Whimsical slashes AI credit quotas 80-95%, renames AI actions to credits
What happened
Between the May 25, 2026 and Jun 1, 2026 captures of Whimsical's pricing page, Pulse recorded 2 changes: AI credit quotas reduced across all plans: Free 100 actions/editor/total to 20 credits/workspace/total (80% decrease); Pro 500 to 50/editor/month (90%); Business 2000 to 100/editor/month (95%); AI feature renamed from 'AI actions' to 'AI credits' across all plans; Free plan billing unit changed from per-editor to per-workspace/total, decoupling from editor count.
