Quota & Usage

Understand Chatbox AI's Compute Points system to help you better plan your usage.

What are Compute Points?

Compute Points are Chatbox AI's unified quota system. Different models have different Compute Point consumption rates, allowing you to flexibly choose models while managing usage in one place.

Consumption Rates

Each model has its own unique Compute Point consumption rate — different models consume different amounts of Compute Points per Token. For detailed per-model rates, see the Model Pricing page.

Models are broadly grouped into two categories, though each model within a category has its own specific rate:

  • Standard Models: e.g., DeepSeek V3, DeepSeek R1, GPT 5-mini, Claude Haiku 3.5, Gemini 2.5 Flash
  • Premium Models: e.g., GPT 5.2, Claude 4.5 Sonnet, Gemini 3 Pro

Quota Reset

Reset Timing

Quota is calculated from your purchase date and resets on the same date each month.

For example:

  • Purchased on January 15 → Resets on the 15th of each month
  • Purchased on January 31 → Resets on the last day of each month (e.g., Feb 28, Apr 30)

Renewal and Quota

Important: Renewal does NOT immediately reset quota.

Quota only resets at the start of the next billing cycle. If you have remaining quota, it will be cleared on the reset date and you'll receive new quota.

What Happens When Quota Runs Out?

When your quota is exhausted, you have these options:

1. Purchase an Add-on Pack

  • Buy additional Compute Points separately
  • Add-on packs are valid for 3 months
  • Suitable for temporary need of extra usage

2. Purchase a New License

  • Buying a new License Key immediately grants new quota
  • Old License quota is retained until expiration

3. Wait for Reset

  • Free option, wait for automatic quota reset in the next billing cycle

Usage Tips

Quota-Saving Tips

  1. Choose the right model: Use Standard models for simple tasks, Premium models for complex tasks
  2. Control conversation length: Start new conversations regularly to avoid overly long context
  3. Use web search wisely: Let AI get the latest information to reduce back-and-forth questions
