We heard you wanted to use Codex rate limit resets on your own time.

Starting today, we’re rolling out the ability to save rate limit resets to use later.

We’re starting Go, Plus, Pro, and Business users with one free reset:

For next two weeks, refer your friends to Codex, and you'll bank a rate limit reset:

For the next two weeks, Plus and Pro users can invite up to three friends to try Codex.

When a friend sends their first Codex message, you’ll both get another banked reset.

Hilarious. Absolutely destroying Anthropic rate limits.

This might actually be a bit too generous. I am getting suspicious

Through June 24, Plus and Pro users can refer up to three friends.

Send this to the developer friends who keep asking for your Codex setup 😉

Invite a friend to Codex and add another reset to the bank.

When they send their first Codex message, you’ll both bank one to use when you need it.

Rate limit banking is rolling out to Go, Plus, Pro, and Business users, with the first reset on us.

@OpenAI This is actually nuts Im about to stack 50 reset limits

If im on a $20 plan and save reset limits, and change to a $200 plan, does it carry the limit reset? 👀

@OpenAI Strictly speaking almost everyone that wants to use codex already is, so this is not some kind of useful thing.

would be more useful for sharing chatgpt but not codex

@OpenAI Real talk, this referral shit is actually smart. You invite your people, they get to try Codex, and both of y’all get extra resets. Win-win. Most companies just nerf the limits, OpenAI out here letting you stack them.

@bkrsna @cleanclawd @OpenAI it's a bug. it should probably not show the 5h row at all, otherwise it's confusing.

@OpenAI nice. how are you thinking about invite quality vs volume here, since the best referrals usually come from people who already know the use case?
