OpenAI adds daily free reset before Astra

The reset can be used anytime within a month and stays active until the user gets access to Astra.

OpenAI will give every subscriber one free limit reset per day — and that'll stay in place until they get access to Astra. You can use the reset anytime within the month.

Why it matters

Hitting the daily cap and waiting out the clock has been a long-running gripe among ChatGPT subscribers. Instead of just raising the limits, OpenAI is patching the problem with a stopgap: one free reset a day, valid only until Astra ships. Reaching for a workaround instead of naming a date suggests the Astra rollout still isn't locked in.

Honestly, take your time with Astra — a daily reset is a fine way to live in the meantime.
