AI daily limit

Why the agent stops with an AI daily limit message, when the limit resets, and what you can do in the meantime.

Why does the agent say I've reached the AI daily limit?

Coassemble has a daily safety limit on how much AI each workspace can use. Once your workspace passes it, the agent stops and shows a message starting AI daily limit, with how much your workspace has used. The limit resets at midnight UTC, and the agent works again from then.

What counts towards the limit?

All AI use across your workspace during the UTC day, measured in tokens (the units AI models use to count the text they read and write). AI image generation counts too. Everyone in your workspace draws from the same daily total, so one person running several large builds can use up the day for the whole team.

The daily limit is a safety limit, and it's separate from the AI allowances that come with your plan.

What stops when the limit is reached?

The agent and the AI features it powers:

  • Create with agent, when you build a new course with the agent.
  • The agent panel in the builder, including Chat, the Review tab and Insights.
  • AI alt text suggestions from Review.
  • Images the agent generates for your course.
  • Courses built through the API with the agent.
  • AI assistants connected to your workspace over MCP (the Model Context Protocol), such as Claude or Microsoft Copilot, when they ask Coassemble to generate content.

Everything else keeps working. You can still open, edit, publish and share courses by hand, and learners can keep taking them.

Why does the message mention an access token?

If you build through an API key, or through an AI assistant connected over MCP, that key or connection also has its own daily limit. When that's the one reached, the message says this access token used instead of this workspace used. It resets at the same time.

What can I do?

  1. Wait for the reset. Midnight UTC is 11 am in Sydney during daylight saving (10 am the rest of the year), and midnight in London in winter (1 am in summer).
  2. Keep building by hand. The builder works without AI, so you can carry on editing until the limit resets.
  3. Talk to the Coassemble team if your team regularly reaches the limit, so they can look at how you're using AI with you.

Frequently asked questions

Is this my plan's AI allowance?

No. Your plan's AI allowances cover things like narration and image generation over your billing period. The daily limit is a separate safety limit that resets every day at midnight UTC.

Will I lose work when the limit is reached?

No. Anything the agent had already added to your course stays there. The agent stops before its next step, and you can ask it to carry on once the limit resets.
