Issue: "Generation quota exhausted" error despite being on Paid Tier 1

Google AI Studio
1

Hello,

I am currently subscribed to Paid Tier 1, but I am suddenly receiving the following error message: “The generation quota for this project has been exhausted. Please select another project.”

The system also suggests: “You can try switching to another project to continue developing your app.”

Because of this, my current project is completely stuck and I cannot proceed with my development. Since I am already on a paid tier, why am I hitting this quota limit?

Could you please help me understand what is causing this and how I can resolve it without having to migrate everything to a new project?

Thank you for your assistance.

This means your current project may have hit limits such as request count, token usage, or rate limits configured for that specific project.

Paid Tier ≠ Unlimited usage

Each project can have separate quotas or caps

Quotas may also depend on region, model usage, or billing configuration

Sometimes default limits are low unless manually increased.

You don’t necessarily need to migrate your entire project—this is usually a quota configuration issue, not a restriction of the paid plan itself.
