Daily credit limits
How chat uses credits, and what happens when you run out.
Every chat message consumes credits from your daily credit pool. Pegasus resets the pool to its full value at 00:00 UTC every day.
How much does a chat message cost?#
There is no flat per-message price. The cost depends on:
- Model used — advanced models cost more.
- Document context size — long documents pull more chunks into the prompt.
- Max Mode — multiplies the cost ~5–7× per message vs Standard RAG.
- Output length — longer answers cost more.
For most plans and most questions, you will see hundreds of messages out of your daily pool before hitting the cap.
Watching the counter#
The bottom of the left sidebar shows live credit remaining: " / credits". A small badge on the Subscription page shows the same.
When you cross 80%, an inline warning appears in the chat input.
When you hit the cap#
The chat input is replaced with a banner:
You have used all credits for today. Resets at UTC.
Or simply:
Daily credit limit reached. Resets at midnight UTC.
You cannot send new messages until the daily reset. Already-sent messages remain visible.
Training also uses this pool#
Both chat and training consume credits from the same daily pool. If you trained a large bot earlier in the day, your chat budget for the rest of the day is reduced.
Increasing the limit#
The only way to raise your daily limit is to upgrade your plan.
| Plan | Daily credits |
|---|---|
| Free | 100 |
| Pro | 2,000 |
| Ultra | 20,000 |
See Plan tiers for the full comparison.
When does the limit NOT apply?#
- For teams where quota tracking is disabled by workspace policy — the credit counter does not increment.
- This is rare and not a way to get more credits as a regular user.
