Gemini API reset times: RPM, TPM, and the daily RPD reset

Gemini API rate limits (RPM/TPM) roll continuously, but daily quotas (RPD) reset at midnight Pacific Time. Live countdown to the next reset, plus free vs paid tier limits.

Short answer: Gemini's per-minute limits (RPM/TPM) roll continuously — there is no single reset moment for them. The daily quota (RPD) is different: it resets at a fixed clock time, midnight Pacific. The countdown below shows exactly how long is left until the next daily reset.

RPM and TPM roll continuously

Requests-per-minute and tokens-per-minute are rolling per-minute windows: capacity returns gradually as old requests age out, not in one reset event. The model-by-model numbers live in the official Gemini API rate limits doc.

RPD resets at midnight Pacific Time

The requests-per-day quota is the one limit with a fixed reset: midnight Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles). This is stated in the official rate-limits doc and was confirmed by Google staff on the AI Studio forum. The countdown on this page is pure timezone math — no account access involved.

Free vs paid tier numbers: read the live doc

Tier tables (free / Tier 1 / Tier 2 / Tier 3) change as Google adjusts capacity, so we deliberately link the official table instead of mirroring numbers that rot. TODO: scout-reviewed tier snapshot with checkedAt, refreshed weekly.

Countdown to the next daily quota reset

Gemini API daily quotas (RPD) reset at midnight Pacific Time. This countdown is pure timezone math — it does not read your account, your key, or your quota.

Gemini API reset times: RPM, TPM, and the daily RPD reset FAQ

When does my Gemini API daily quota reset?

At midnight Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles), every day. Use the countdown above for the exact wait in your timezone.

Do RPM limits have a reset time?

Not a single one — per-minute windows roll continuously, so capacity trickles back within about a minute.

Can this countdown see my remaining quota?

No. It is a clock, nothing more. Your remaining RPD is only visible in your own AI Studio account.

Does the reset time depend on my timezone?

No. The anchor is always midnight Pacific; the page converts it to your local time for display.
