⏱ Daily quotas reset at midnight UTC
All per-day AI generation limits (chat, battlecards, deep analysis, etc.) reset to zero at 00:00 UTC every day. Enterprise plans have no daily AI quotas.
🔄 Scan intervals are per company
Each tracked company is throttled individually. A Pro user with 20 companies gets each one rescanned every 60 minutes — not all 20 at once. Scans are staggered automatically.
⚙️ Enterprise can go lower
Enterprise accounts can request scan intervals as low as 15 minutes per company. Custom company limits and AI quotas are also configurable per workspace.
📊 Quotas are visible in the dashboard
The Analysis tab in your dashboard shows a live quota bar with today's usage for each AI feature. You always know exactly how many uses remain before the reset.
🚫 Limits exist to control AI costs
Argus runs Claude Haiku and Sonnet on every signal and analysis request. These quotas keep the service sustainable so we don't have to raise prices aggressively as you add companies.
