The October 31 documentation update distinguishes jobs within a set budget from larger approvals, and remakes from flagged takes.
A budget is not another click
The Sensei FAQ says small jobs run within a set budget, while larger ones wait for Approve. That qualifies its broader no‑spending‑without‑asking language: prior budget authorization is different from a fresh click for every small job. Users can stop the run; the page does not define the numerical small‑job threshold.
Recovery still involves choices
Pixel Dojo says images and videos use normal generation credits plus a small Sensei thinking fee. It does not give a fixed price for every recovery attempt.
The October 31 changelog clarifies that a take missing the brief is remade or flagged for the user to decide. The product page repeats that choice; it does not establish free, unlimited retakes or remove the user’s judgment.
