No daily limit, no units to count
Announcement · By dibsresearch · · Updated
dibsresearch runs on fair use: ask as many questions as your work needs. Only use far outside the ordinary is limited, and only for a while.
On 17 October we removed the daily limit and the units that counted every question in dibsresearch. It now runs on fair use: you ask as many questions as your work needs.
We made the change because research comes in bursts. On a results day you might ask fifty questions in an hour, then nothing for a week. A daily allowance gets in the way exactly when the work matters, and a meter on every question makes people ration the ones they should simply ask.
Until then, the composer showed how many units you had left that day. A larger model or a more thorough setting used more of them per question.
Now there’s nothing to count and nothing to buy. We keep a record of how much each account uses. Only use far outside what a person does at a desk is limited for a while, which protects the service for everyone without asking anyone to plan their questions.
A limited account still gets answers, only fewer in an hour and on the default model. The message in the app says why and until when.
If you’re ever limited by mistake, write to us and we’ll lift it. dibsresearch is currently free to use.
