Category LLM Kind Paid plan Caveats Quota shared across text/image/speech/music, gated by BOTH 5h-rolling AND weekly windows, no rollover; 'designed for individual, interactive developer use' — MiniMax recommends pay-as-you-go for production; peak-hour dynamic throttling (weekdays 15:00-17:30 UTC+8); big token numbers assume high cache-hit rates
