Quotas and limits

A quota is a limit your plan places on the space: how many contests it may hold, how many submissions may be evaluated in a month, whether a feature exists at all. Quota is a property of the plan, so changing plan changes every limit at once; a custom subscription arranged with us carries its own quota attached to the space instead.

The quota your space has right now is listed on the subscription card at Settings → Billing, and each plan card in the plan chooser lists what that plan would give you. This page is the full set.

How to read a quota

Quotas come in two shapes, and they fail differently.

A switch is a feature the plan either includes or does not. Team competitions, plagiarism analysis, single sign-on and discussions work this way. When the switch is off the feature is absent: the setting, tab or option is not shown to anyone in the space, including the owner, and no permission brings it back.

A number is a cap on how many of something you may have or use. Problems, contests, seats' worth of evaluations, automation rules. The feature exists, and it stops working when you reach the cap.

The two overlap at zero. A numeric quota set to zero behaves exactly like a switch that is off — zero printers hides the Printers tab, zero achievements removes achievements, zero automation rules removes the Automation section. So "my plan doesn't have it" and "my quota is zero" describe the same thing from the outside, and both are fixed the same way: by moving to a plan that includes it.

What that means when you are looking for a missing button: if a colleague who administers the same space cannot see it either, it is the plan. If they can, it is your permissions. Why a section is missing works through this.

When a quota runs out

The action is refused at the moment you attempt it, and the console shows the error. Nothing is silently truncated, and nothing you already created is removed or hidden — a space that has hit its problem limit keeps all its problems and simply will not accept another.

The counters that most often bite:

  • Monthly evaluations. Submissions stop being evaluated for the rest of the quota period. Participants can still submit; their work is not tested. Rejudging consumes the same budget, so a full rejudge late in the month can exhaust it.

  • Active contests, contests per month. Creating, starting or reopening a contest is refused.

  • Problems, courses, scoreboards, printers, automation rules. Creating another is refused; the ones you have keep working.

  • Automation executions. Rules stop firing until the period rolls over.

  • AI tokens. AI-backed features stop responding until the period rolls over.

  • Emails per day, emails per month. Sends are refused.

Two things follow from the way periods work:

  • Monthly counters reset on the anniversary of the day you subscribed, not on the 1st.

  • Raising the seat count raises everything expressed per seat — evaluations, most visibly — immediately. See Change your plan or seats.
