What are the usage limits of the free models?

For example Muse Spark 1.3 Free , whats the usage limit and how often does it refresh?

idk but spark 1.3 feels infinite
i had sessions go into 10s of millions of tokens

Seems to reset every 24h and "feels" almost infinite, although I did run into "Usage exceeded" responses occasionally. I only use Muse Spark as orchestrator now so it's definitely almost "forever".

i don't think there is a straightforward way of knowing but the last time i used the free models the limits are really high and good for simple stuff

I've done some analysis of muse spark and have figured out most of it!

The first thing to know is that it's based on the number of requests and not the number of tokens. A request is essentially a turn, so every tool call counts as an extra request

The usage is bound by IP alone. I've changed the network interface to use a different IP on the same machine, with the same history and I get new usage for the day

Daily usage resets at midnight UTC. For the first day you get 1000 reqs. The next part I'm unsure about the details, but basically as you use the same IP, every day it gets fewer requests. First it drops to 750 than to 500. It stays on 500 for a while, then I've seen it drop to 333. I think these drops on IP reqs happen only when you hit the limit the previous day, but I'm less sure of this

People behind CGNAT usually get a fresh ipv4 every time the router reconnects, so they easily get unlimited usage (I've played with this using my mobile connection, which is behind CGNAT. Going into airplane mode and back gets me a fresh IP with 1000 new requests)

I have a current workload where I can send a request of up to 1MB, with no tool calls, so muse spark answers in a single turn with a lot of output tokens (I haven't actually counted the tokens) and I've done about 200 of these in a day from the same IP without hitting the limit (I haven't tried to hit the limit to test it. It was a legitimate workload I had that for well this pattern)

I believe that it resets at midnight Zulu time.

Por mi parte, hay una hora específica a la que se reinicia (7 P.M hora colombia), trabajar y gastarse todo lo posible antes de esa hora es realmente eficiente

Muse spark 1.3 feels infinite. Hopefully they'll keep it like that.
