when does the 24 hour limit reset for an account?

Hi @vast sinew. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

For OpenAI products that use a 24-hour usage limit (such as the Sora app for video creation), the limit operates on a rolling 24-hour window. This means your limit resets individually for each request: as soon as a submission falls outside the last 24 hours, you can submit again. There is no fixed midnight reset; instead, you regain quota as time passes since your previous submissions. If you hit the cap, you’ll see an error indicating how many videos you’ve generated in the last 24 hours — you can submit again once an earlier submission is more than 24 hours old Creating videos with Sora.
