Usage limits
Local messages and cloud chats share your plan’s usage allowance. Weekly limits may also apply.
For Enterprise/Edu users with flexible pricing, there are no fixed rate limits—usage scales with credits.
Enterprise and Edu plans without flexible pricing have the same per-seat usage limits as Plus for most features.
