Depending on your plan you have a certain amount of quota. You can see your quota and usage in the usage dashboard.

Each request to your project will use a certain amount of quota. Usually this is 1 quota per request, but some models use more quota. You can see the quota usage per model when you add it to your project.

If you run out of quota, the API will respond with an error and status code 403.

​
Quota period

The quota period is the period of time in which your quota is calculated. For example, if your quota period is 1 month, your quota will be reset every month. You can see your current quota period in the usage dashboard.

Most accounts have a quota period of 1 month from the 1st of the month to the last day of the month. If you have a custom plan, your quota period may be different.

​
Pay-as-you-go

You can enable pay-as-you-go on your account. This means that you will be charged for any usage above your plan’s quota. You can enable pay-as-you-go in the usage dashboard.

This is useful if you want to make sure your API requests are never rejected, or if you want to use just a little bit more quota than your plan allows.
