Understanding Clay's Limitations on Running AI with OpenAI API

Hi, can someone please explain to me why Clay will not run AI with my company's Open AI API due to the rate limit? As I see in Open AI rate limit settings, we're supposed to spend $50 to get to Tier 2, but how can we spend it when Clay doesn't want to run AI even on a small table with 5 rows? Thank you!

The issue you're facing is likely due to insufficient tokens per minute (TPM) on your OpenAI plan, rather than the amount spent. For reliable use of OpenAI in Clay, you need 30,000 TPM for ChatGPT columns and 450,000 TPM for Claygent. To resolve this: 1. Check your current API usage tier at https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/limits 2. Ensure you're on Tier 2 or higher 3. If not, contact OpenAI support to upgrade your account Even if you've spent money on credits, you may need to specifically request a tier upgrade. If you need further assistance, please request human help by clicking "Talk to a person" in this chat.

Hey there, thanks for reaching out! To upgrade to a Tier 2 API key with OpenAI, you need to first trigger an automatic upgrade to Tier 1 by paying $5 towards your OpenAI API usage account. After that, make an additional payment of $50 toward this usage-based plan, which will then automatically upgrade you to Tier 2. This process is based on payments rather than usage volume, so you don't need to increase your usage to move up tiers. Here are the links to check your OpenAI API usage or limits: ** Usage ** Limits Let me know if this helps!

Hello Stefano Thank you for the explanation. So, these additional $50 are paid through "Buy credits" option in Open AI Limits page, or in some other way?

Hi Vanja, unfortunately I am not as well versed in Open AI's own API. I think your best bet at the moment would be reaching out to their support who I am sure will be better able to help. I am sorry about this, I want to ensure that I do not give you incorrect information and cost you any money you do not need to spend. Let me know if you have any CLay related questions though and I will be more than happy to help .

No problem, the most important thing for me to know is that, once we are in Tier 2, I will be able to use API in Clay. The rest is on their support. You've helped me a lot today!
