Astra burns through usage limits in minutes, frustrated user reports
Wooden_Drag9473 · reddit · 2026-09-05
A Redditor reports frustration with Astra: a complex goal exhausted the Pro tier limit within 5 minutes with nothing finished, and the 5x Max tier hit the cap again without usable output. The author questions why Astra consumes so much at the same per-million-token price and why it can't show partial results, contrasting with Fable where output is tweakable within limits. Also notes GPT keeps asking for permissions despite full access.
