Daily budgets

Cap what the AI may use in a day so one busy day cannot spend the month.

Updated 23 September 2026

Why
A batch of large drawings or a loop in an integration can draw on a month's usage in an afternoon.
What
An optional cap on the AI's use per day, set as a share of the month's allowance.
How
The owner picks a preset on the Billing page; the AI checks the day's budget before the month's balance.

Set a budget

  1. Step 1.

    Open /app/settings/billing as the organisation owner and find Daily budget.

  2. Step 2.

    Under Budget, choose Off, A fifth of the month, A tenth of the month, A thirtieth of the month or Custom.

  3. Step 3.

    For Custom, move the slider: from half a thirtieth to the whole month.

  4. Step 4.

    Choose Save budget.

What happens on the day

  • The usage card shows how much of today's budget is used, as a share.
  • When it is spent, AI answers pause with "Today's budget for AI is used up" and resume after midnight.
  • Everything done by hand carries on. A budget never stops quoting, a station or a delivery.
  • The day starts at midnight in the organisation's timezone, shown under the budget. It is Europe/London by default.

Only the owner sets a budget; an admin can read it. The free plan has no billing period, so it has no daily budget.
