Ask Bionic to read this page

Copy this prompt, open Bionic, and paste it into a new chat.

Read https://lmstudio.ai/docs/bionic/accounts-plans-and-billing, I want to ask questions about it.

Cloud models require an LM Studio account with available credits. Local and LM Link models do not use Bionic cloud credits, and can be used without an LM Studio account.
