Kimi apologizes for K3.1 Pro rate limits and quota consumption, resets subscriber quotas
Overview
Moonshot AI's Kimi apologizes for rate limits and unnecessary quota consumption on its K3.1 Pro subscription plan, saying the problems were its own.
Kimi says every subscriber on every plan gets a one-time reset restoring 25% of their monthly quota, about one week of usage, with usage bars updated by end of day PST. The South China Morning Post reports the reset appears in usage bars within the day.
Pandaily reports a different mechanism: members who have used less than 25% of their monthly quota will have usage reset to zero. Pandaily does not say whether members who used more than 25% also receive the restoration, and it does not repeat Kimi's end-of-day PST timing.
Kimi also says it is reducing unnecessary subagent calls and output length to stretch quotas further. The reports do not say how those reductions will be measured.
