OpenAI has introduced a new real-time access engine for its Codex and Sora products to address user frustration with rate limits. This system combines traditional rate limits with a credit-based purchasing system, allowing users to continue using the services beyond their initial limits by spending down a credit balance. The engine tracks usage in real-time and integrates various access controls like free tiers, credits, and enterprise entitlements into a single decision waterfall, aiming for a seamless user experience.
