Sungkhum Also concerned - price seems to be consistently higher than it used to be:
Pauline P. Narvas Hi, @suyulingxm-7440! Welcome 👋 I understand your concern about the high token usage in v0. Complex components, multiple files, heavy styling, or repeated refinements can all increase token consumption. To optimize usage, keep prompts specific but concise, break complex requests into smaller tasks, use QuickEdit for small changes, and reference existing design systems or component libraries. You can also avoid asking for multiple variations in one go, and use the “Continue” feature to build on existing work instead of regenerating everything. At the moment, v0 uses a single model tier, so toke
Pauline P. Narvas Hey, Salvador! Welcome to the Vercel Community. It's great to have you here 😃 Here's a thread on how to get the most out of the community: community.vercel.com/t/getting-started-with-the-vercel-community/152 What prompt are you using? I recommend to also check out these resources to get the most out of v0: community.vercel.com/docs?tags=v0
SalvadorHi prompt is IPTV (of course needs payment to access) when after adding features of my choice, confuses it for a social media app when ITS NOT what i was saying. please improve AI Since the issue is not happening in the past
Jacob Paris There is no difference between the pricing model between free and premium. Both are usage based and each prompt you submit is charged based on the number of tokens it takes to execute You spent your last free $5 in 31 messages across 4 chats, while after subscribing you spent the $20 premium credits in 63 messages in 1 chat. You can verify this for yourself at v0.app/chat/settings/usage The lower usage in your free period is likely related to earlier stage projects being simpler and requiring fewer tokens to read the codebase, but I can assure you the exact same cost per token is applied regar
Stasleontyev 6991 That’s exactly what people call scam! Twice less requests, a lot of them were bug fixing or component consistency requests! Same $20 I pay for ChatGPT using all the time!!!
Sasha if v0 does not support Go, it will not show you the preview, it happens with other languages that are not yet adapted to v0 (I think)
Pauline P. Narvas Hey, Yuhan! Welcome to the Vercel Community 👋 Your images didn't upload. If you're still seeing issues, can you share a chat link with us or share your screenshots again?
Richardeschloss Hi, I just came across a similar issue where v0 could not detect a page to preview. It seems that v0 is looking for a React-based page.tsx file somewhere in the folder tree. I was able to fix my issue by asking v0 to create a page.tsx file for the demo and it worked. I should mention: my case was a bit different. I initially asked for VanillaJS in the output, and V0 did just that. It gave me an index.html and a component.js file. Apparently, v0 didn’t think to check for an “index.html” file for the demo. v0 had to add an “app/page.tsx” file to house the demo. I hope this helps
Alexcumbers 9492 When you have an issue, share you chat, otherwise there is no context for anyone to help you. also see: community.vercel.com/t/how-to-get-good-answers/158
Nathanstylee 2553 ever since i was gifted credits the quality of the entire system/experience has considerably decreased. i was using the hell out of it before, but today it won’t even work at all. i would have preferred to continue paying and using gpt 5. this is ridiculous
Alexcumbers 9492 You’re right, I was generating superb MVP UI interfaces prior to V0 App, one main Music App I was going to build on, but this now has to be on hold. Dev was awesome, App is a major regression. See my thread here: community.vercel.com/t/urgent-feedback-on-v0-transition-user-experience/21203
Jacob Paris Can you explain more about what errors you're running into?
Medhatbusinessacc 3223 while building the project the agent suddenly stopped (agent timed out) them after continuing the project there is no actual site, it keeps loading without any site on the screen, if i tried to open in new tap the whole page stop working, Agent assuming there no error in the code, I’ve downloaded the code and kept working on it, the main error is Failed to import, Glopals.css file failed to load due a syntax error in the code so it’s automatically blocked, and the whole project tree is not linked together properly, language toggle is not working properly(both languages in same pages), footer a
Robok2050 I came here and created a forum account just for this reason. It keeps telling me it fixed something that it hasn’t, over and over. I have given 6 different prompts to try and guide it more to a solution. I am new to V0 but it is frustrating.
riza I would suggest copying the first error that appeared in some document, then going to the working version of your project, copying and then deleting the prompt below the working version, modify the copied prompt with steps to prevent the error that appeared based on the error you copied. That should resolve it, if it doesn't, share your chat here after making it public.
Jesse 5244 If I had a nickel for every time v0 has assured me that some error is fixed only for it to be exactly the same or even worse…well, I’d have v0’s business model. In all seriousness, this is getting really tiring having to spend hours fixing the same error over and over again. Forget the money, which is considerable, the wasted time is defeating the entire purpose of the tool. For example, it took me 4 hours of prompts to get a HubSpot form to render correctly. This takes 30 seconds on Wix. Totally ridiculous. One error after another and when I think it’s finally fixed the site won’t deploy so n
Jacob Paris Pricing is per token passed to the AI Model, which matches the costs that Vercel has to pay to deliver each generation There are some cases where this differs but when v0 changes a file, the whole file must be sent to the AI model if v0 changes many files, they all must be sent So the best way to optimize costs is to keep files small so v0 can target code it needs to change more specifically You can also see your v0 usage at v0.app/chat/settings/billing to get a sense of how much each message is costing
Tyrone B Hi Jacob, i understand the charging per request is not free, but it is not expensive either if were to look at it from a grand scheme of things, but the problem i have right now is that i spent 10 dollars in credits asking the AI tool to fix the problem, but nothing was fixed and keep coming back with problem is fixed or no error is found. the project i have right now is somehow unfixable at all, what should i do next? i dont want to continue to waste more credits to find out i couldnt get it fixed but to restart the whole project again.
Vani Do the same on a real project and on Agent mode. You won’t be seeing 0.15$ 0.07$ as you’re showing on your screenshot(0.4$-1$ is the norm with Agent mode and the issue is not fixed even after 10 tries). Please don’t give misguided answers. You have answered the question yes. But you did not answer the core issue that made him request for assistance in the first place. Just bring back the power to choose models especially gpt-5. Is it really so much to ask for? V0 was amazing (even with all the other minor issues).
Elliottux Still happening 24 hours later - not great service.
Pauline P. Narvas Hi, Elliot! I'm sorry about this, it must be super frustrating. I cannot replicate in my new chats, but can you confirm if you can start fresh chats without the error?
Elliottux I’ve basically had to start my project again, as it was super frustrating - meant a lot of wasted effort and time trying to get back to where I was before. It started happening after the latest update (presumably to ChatGPT 5). I’ve managed to get back to where I was, so I’m ok now, but would suggest that the error message received was massively inadequate and unhelpful and do more thorough testing before future upgrades. This has been a very infuriating experience.
