Does OpenLLM raise my Claude limit?

No. Each plan's limits are the vendor's. OpenLLM moves the request to another plan or API key you hold when one runs out.

Does OpenLLM store my prompts?

No. Requests stream through to the provider and back; we record metadata like token counts, model and latency for your usage dashboard.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. You can sign up and route requests on the free tier, then upgrade from Settings when you need more.

Usage limits

Claude limits

Hit your Claude usage limit?

Claude Pro and Max meter usage in a session limit that resets every five hours and a weekly limit across all models that resets at a fixed time assigned to your account. Max 5x and 20x are multiples of the Pro per-session allowance.

Keep working through the wall

Launch your agent through OpenLLM and give its model alias a fallback chain. When your Claude Pro or Max allowance is exhausted, that entry is cooled and the request continues on the next plan or API key you hold.

Fallback chains when a model is rate-limited

Define an ordered chain per model alias. When a hop returns a rate limit, an overload or a provider error, the request moves to the next hop instead of failing your session.

Chains are configured once and shared by every client and device
Each hop resolves its own model settings, so a fallback never inherits the wrong parameters
Every hop that ran is visible in your request history

See where the tokens go

Requests, tokens, latency and API-equivalent cost per model and provider, with charts you can export or share.
