### Tips to reduce token usage in Leap

Source: https://docs.leap.new/best-practices/tokens

Provides practical advice for users to reduce token consumption in Leap. Key recommendations include merging changes frequently, using the 'Scope context' feature to limit the codebase analyzed by the AI, and avoiding repetitive 'Fix with Leap' actions.

```English
Here are some simple ways you can reduce token usage and improve performance:
### 
​
Merge early and often
When you first send a prompt in Leap, it creates a **Change** for the ongoing chat with the AI. You can think of this as a branch. Whenever you have accomplished an atomic implementation in your application, we recommend clicking **Merge change** and continuing with a new one. You can think of this as merging a pull request. Merging early and often ensures the context passed to the AI is focused only on what is relevant for the changes you are currently working on.
### 
​
Use Scope context
If you have a large codebase, manually defining what part of the codebase is send to the AI can be used to significantly optimize token usage. Click **Scope context** in the prompt text area to select which files and folders are relevant to the change you are working on. **Example:** If you are asking the AI to only make UI changes on a specific page, use the Scope context feature to select the relevant page.
### 
​
Avoid repeated “Fix with Leap” attempts
Repeatedly clicking **Fix with Leap** can quickly consume unnecessary tokens. After an attempt, review the changes and refine your next request if needed. Not every issue can be fixed automatically, without providing more context to the AI, so it’s often worth debugging the error or making manual edits if fixes fail.
### 
​
Add error handling and logging
If you’re stuck in an error loop, prompt Leap to add detailed logging and stronger error handling. Leap is good at inserting useful logs at key steps, and these logs help the AI understand what’s going wrong and allow it to respond with more precise fixes in future attempts.
### 
​
Use the Undo functionality
If something goes wrong, you can **Undo** the latest revision and return to the previous state without consuming any tokens. This is more efficient than asking the AI revert the change.
Undoing a revision is permanent, there’s no redo, so make sure you’re ready before using it.
```

Source: https://docs.leap.new/best-practices/tokens

This section explains how Leap utilizes AI models like Anthropic's Claude 4 Sonnet and Google's Gemini, and how these models process tokens. It defines tokens and explains that Leap is billed by AI providers based on token usage, influencing pricing plans.

```English
Leap uses Anthropic’s Claude 4 Sonnet and Google’s Gemini models to power its AI. These models process _tokens_ , which is defined by Anthropic as:
> The smallest individual units of a language model. A token can represent a word, part of a word, a character, or even a byte (especially in the case of Unicode).
Each token comes with a cost, and Leap is billed by the AI providers for each token it uses. This is why our paid plans are priced based on how many tokens you get in each plan.
