* **Shapes in Chat:** Every Shape inside the sponsored chat will automatically use a premium model.
* **Default Model:** If a Shape doesn’t have a premium model selected, it will default to **Claude Sonnet 4**.
* **Checking Balance:**

  2. Click the 👑 **Premium** button in the top-right corner of the screen
