# Vidova MCP quotas

Local Vidova MCP tools do not use hosted quota. generate_asset image is metered. Speech and transcription use included rolling quotas.

Local editor operations do not use Vidova hosted quota. The intelligence that decided to call the tool is the connected agent, not a Vidova hosted model.

## Local

`timeline_edit`, `preview`, `clip_enhance`, project tools, components, branches, recipes, and the other non-metered tools are local. See each tool page for the credit sentence from `mcpToolCreditNotice`.

## Metered or included hosted jobs

| Call | What it uses |
| --- | --- |
| `generate_asset` `kind` `image` | Image-generation allowance |
| `generate_asset` `kind` `speech` | Included speech quota (characters) |
| `asset` `transcribe` | Included transcription quota (started minutes) |
| `sfx` search / import | Local search against the sound library. Import stores a file in the project. |
| `import_asset` `vectorize` | Hosted vectorize. Requires sign-in. |

`generate_asset` `kind` `status` only polls. It does not start a new billed job.

Plan numbers and rolling windows for speech, captions, and chapters are on the public [Quota usage](/quotas) page. Local editing stays unlimited.
