📊 Your Actual Usage Analysis

🚨 Verdict: Max 20× Alone is NOT Enough

Your usage pattern shows you need overflow capacity. The data proves it.

From Your Screenshots (Jan 1-8)

Weekly Quota Status 100% EXHAUSTED
Extra Usage Spent A$325.27
≈ USD equivalent ~$215 USD
Days into January ~8 days
Daily Extra Burn Rate ~$27 USD/day

What This Means

Current pattern (Max 20× + heavy extra usage):

Max subscription $200/mo
Extra usage (projected) ~$837/mo
Total ~$1,037/mo

You're burning through 100% of your Max 20× weekly quota in less than 7 days, PLUS another ~$27/day in extra usage on top. That's serious usage.

The Math: Why You Need Max 5× Backup

Scenario Monthly Cost Risk
Max 20× only (current path) $200 + ~$800 extra Unpredictable
Max 20× + Max 5× $300 flat Predictable

The 5× account provides:

  • Independent weekly quota reset (different cycle)
  • Overflow when 20× hits 100%
  • Route Quick Turn/chat to preserve 20× for heavy work
  • Potential savings: $700+/mo vs extra usage path

🎯 Recommendation

Yes, get the Max 5× backup. At your usage level, the $100/mo for Max 5× will pay for itself many times over by avoiding the $27/day extra usage burn. Combined 25× quota with two independent reset cycles should cover your needs without hitting extra usage.
