  1. Tibo@thsottiaux Banked

    GPT-6 Sol and Luna are out. Not only are they a very significant improvement across the board, but also in writing and general "you know when you try it" quality.

    We are also permanently reducing the API price by 50% making both of them viable for a ton of new usecases and making your usage go further too, even on the subscriptions.

    And one more thing. We are loading a banked reset into all accounts of our Plus, Pro and Business users. Let's go!

  2. 10 days without a reset
  3. Tibo@thsottiaux Reset

    Time shown is when the reset was observed, about two hours before this post.

    All reset for everyone. Enjoy the week with Astra.

  4. Tibo@thsottiaux Banked

    Because we are beyond happy to have Astra rolled out today ahead of schedule and you have been super patient with us (not really, but it’s ok!)… we will do the full banked reset today too for all Plus, Pro and Business users. Lands end of day.

    Happy Astra day and enjoy a phenomenal weekend.

    PS: If you create the account or upgrade before 8pm PT you will get it too. Still time!

  5. Tibo@thsottiaux Banked

    We will give one banked reset for every day you don't have access to Astra on your paid ChatGPT plan, starting today. Team is moving mountains to give access as fast as we can.

    First one will land in ~ 3 hours. There is still time to create your account if you don't have one.

When does Codex reset?

Is there a schedule for Codex resets?

No. Global resets are announced on X by Tibo (Thibault Sottiaux), who leads Codex at OpenAI, whenever he decides to: most often to make up for an outage or a usage bug, sometimes to celebrate a user milestone or a launch. Across the 55 resets since September 2025, the median gap is 3.3 days and the longest wait was 68 days (Dec 25, 2025 → Mar 3, 2026). OpenAI says future resets are not guaranteed.

When does my own Codex usage limit reset?

That is separate from Tibo’s global resets: every account has its own 5-hour and weekly usage windows, so there is no single reset time for everyone. Open Settings → Usage in the Codex app or on the web to see your own reset times, or type /status in the Codex CLI. If you buy a reset, your new weekly period starts with your next request in Codex or ChatGPT Work, and the next automatic weekly reset comes 7 days after that. Sources: OpenAI Help Center, paid resets.

What is the difference between a reset and a banked reset, and how do I use one?

A regular (global) reset is applied directly to every account it covers (usually all paid plans; the post says who) and can’t be saved. A banked reset is a one-time reset saved to your account: nothing refills until you apply it, and when you do, it refreshes both your 5-hour and weekly windows and moves your weekly reset date. Some announcements include both. To use one, open Settings → Usage in the desktop app, the CLI or on the web, select the summary that says “1 reset available”, check the expiry and confirm. On the calendar, a solid stamp is a regular reset and a dashed ring is a banked one. Source: How banked Codex resets work.

Do banked resets expire?

Yes. Each banked reset shows its own expiry in your account or in the offer, and an expired one can’t be restored or reissued. A banked reset is only used up when it actually refreshes a usage window; if there is nothing to reset, it stays available. Source: OpenAI Help Center.

Tibo posted a reset but my usage hasn’t changed. Why?

Global resets roll out gradually; Tibo’s posts put it anywhere from ten minutes to a few hours. If the post was about a banked reset, nothing changes until you apply it yourself in Settings → Usage. The usage dashboard can also take a moment to update: refresh or reopen Settings → Usage and check that you are looking at the right account or workspace.

Can I buy a Codex reset?

Yes, on eligible ChatGPT Plus and Pro personal accounts: buy an instant reset from Usage settings in the ChatGPT desktop app, or from the offer that appears when you hit your weekly limit. It restores your 5-hour and weekly usage right away, but it pulls your normal weekly allowance forward rather than adding extra usage, it can’t be saved for later, and refunds are generally not offered. It isn’t available on Free, Go, Business, Enterprise or Edu plans. Source: OpenAI Help Center.
