Understanding AI Chat Usage Limits in Aireal

Aireal is the AI assistant built into the Tapo app that helps you interact with your cameras through conversation. This guide explains how daily chat limits work, what you get with each Tapo Care plan, and how to unlock more chats and advanced AI features.

Key Takeaways

  • Each message you send to Aireal counts as 1 chat, up to 250 characters per message. Your daily limit resets on a rolling 24-hour window starting from your first message.
  • Free, Cloud, and Cloud Advanced plans include 50 chats per day through Aireal Free.
  • Cloud Advanced AI unlocks full Aireal access with 250 chats per day plus the complete AI feature suite.

Understanding Your Daily Chat Limit

Every message you send to Aireal counts as 1 chat toward your daily limit. Each message can be up to 250 characters. Your daily chat limit operates on a rolling 24-hour window — it resets 24 hours after you send your first message of the day.

Troubleshooting

Why Was My AI Chat Temporarily Restricted?

To keep Aireal running smoothly for everyone, sending too many messages in a short time may trigger a temporary cooldown. Your limit will return to normal after the cooldown period. If you believe your account was incorrectly restricted, please contact TP-Link support for assistance.
