Early Access Fair Use Policy

At Augment Code, we're committed to providing a high-quality AI-powered development experience. Our Agent product is designed to seamlessly integrate with your IDE, offering powerful assistance throughout your development workflow.

Given the overwhelming excitement around Augment since our Agent launch (thank you!); and to ensure all users receive consistent, responsive service, we've implemented this Fair Use Policy.

Why we have usage limits

Our AI Agent requires significant computational resources to deliver the intelligent assistance you rely on. By implementing reasonable usage limits, we:

  • Maintain optimal performance and response times for all users
  • Ensure equitable access to our services
  • Prevent automated abuse that could degrade the experience for everyone
  • Sustain our ability to provide these powerful tools at current pricing

Usage limits

We apply the following daily limits to Agent requests:

Request Type
Agent Request
Daily Limit
1000

Note: These limits apply to all users across all account types.

What is an Agent request?

We consider a request a message sent by the user to the agent or the agent using a tool (edit files, terminal, search, native tools, MCP calls, etc).

  • User prompt "rewrite this function in my React component" +1
  • Agent use the Context Engine to find relevant files and dependencies +1
  • Agent edit NewDocumentForm.js +1
  • Agent edit another file that has dependencies on that component+1
  • Agent run a Vitest test based on its codebase understanding +1
  • Agent reply with a summary of its work +1

Total Requests: 6

What happens when you reach a limit

If you exceed any of the usage limits outlined above:

  • Your access to the Agent will be temporarily halted
  • You will receive a notification explaining the throttling (linking you to this page)
  • Usage counters reset at midnight UTC and normal service will resume
