AI quota exhausted
Triggering an AI action and got an "Insufficient quota" dialog — three ways out, pick one.

Three paths
1 · Upgrade subscription
Click "Upgrade" on the dialog → jumps to /plans → pick a plan.
Upgrades take immediate effect and the new plan's credits land at the same time.
See: Subscribe / upgrade steps
2 · Buy a Report Pack
Don't want to commit to a higher tier — just want to finish this one task?
Click "Buy Report Pack" → goes to Stripe Checkout → credits land immediately on completion.
See: Report Pack purchase
3 · Wait for the next refresh
Credits refresh on the 1st of each month (or whenever your plan's cycle resets):
- Click "Cancel" on the dialog
- Try the action again after the refresh
See why it ran out so fast
Account → Usage → "Usage stats" tab → trend chart and per-action breakdown.
Common reasons for burning through credits:
- AI Beta Reader / Editor runs are pricey (each report consumes a chunk)
- Web search adds some overhead (fetching pages costs credits)
- Deeper-thinking models cost more than faster tiers
A better habit: check the estimate first
Each message in the chat panel shows an estimate before sending: "Est. X credits, you have Y left" — if it doesn't fit, stop and adjust the message or pick a different model.
