Beyond rate limits: scaling access to Codex and Sora

OpenAI Blog · 5 months ago

OpenAI built a real-time access system that combines rate limits, usage tracking, and credits to manage continuous access to Sora and Codex. The system handles variable demand while maintaining service stability across both products. This approach allows OpenAI to scale access without simply removing restrictions, instead distributing availability based on tracked consumption and credit balances.
