Limits and errors
Every account has daily limits, reset at midnight UTC.
| Tier | Turns | Voice minutes | Dollars |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha tester | 40 | 20 | 3 |
| Investor preview | 60 | 30 | 5 |
| Source personality | 100 | 45 | 8 |
Desk Genie may set a different limit for your account; your account page shows the one that applies. A turn already in progress holds up to $0.45 and 114 voice seconds of your allowance until it finishes, so a turn can be refused when less than that remains. At 80% the website shows a notice. At 100%, talking pauses until midnight UTC.
Each conversation allows 20 turns and lasts at most 30 minutes.
