I’m trying to figure out how this affects weekly limits, since those overlap peak hours. My observation is that it doesn’t. But I could be wrong. If they are doing it “right” I think any off peak usage should count 50% toward your weekly limits. Edit: it does look like they are doing it the "right" way.

> Does bonus usage count against my weekly usage limit? > No. The additional usage you get during off-peak hours doesn’t count toward any weekly usage limits on your plan.

I don't really understand why AI providers don't charge like the electric company, or AWS. Instead of increasing usage limits, just charge less for off-hours use.

Would be cool to have a $5-10/month plan that only works off-peak, for people who want to do the occasional side project after work. Right now it's hard to justify anything but Copilot (because it's cheaper, offers the same models, and I'm nowhere near the usage limits).

I canceled my plan today and wrote my reason as: now that I have a job again I don’t have the time or needs for the pro plan. If there was a $5 a month option, I would gladly take it to make use of Opus for my rare side ideas.
