"Chat is paused until usage is available"

You've used your included usage for today or this week. Your chats, documents and profile are all safe; only new AI replies are paused.

  • Click Usage at the top of the screen to see when it resets.

  • To keep going now, click Buy extra usage.

  • If you see Reset for free, you can use a free reset instead.

More detail: How usage works and buying extra usage.

A "slow down" or "try again in a moment" message

You've sent a lot of messages very quickly. Wait a minute and send again. Nothing is lost.

A banner says my plan changed or my membership needs attention

If your membership is paused or a payment didn't go through, you'll see a Reactivate membership option. Click it to update your payment details, or go to Billing & subscription. If you've just paid, click Refresh.
