What is the limit for the AI usage?
As our premium tier is currently in the pre-release phase, we are experimenting with finding an appropriate way to limit usage to make the features affordable for us and our users. Our goal is to provide generous usage so that users are unlikely to hit these limits while also avoiding abuse and overuse of expensive AI-based features. That said, the current monthly limitations are the following:
Chatbot limitations
- Approximately 150,000 words of input text
- The following count towards this limit:
- raw user input (i.e., the question you ask)
- our system prompt
- notes retrieved from the deck that are used to answer the question
- The following count towards this limit:
- Approximately 187,500 words of output text
- This means you can get 187,500 words of AI responses
Smart Search limitations
- 3,750,000 words of search input
- For example, if you upload a 10 page document with 2,000 words, you will consume 0.05% of your budget
How was the AI trained? Will it make things up?
The AI uses notes from the deck it is enabled in to create answers to your questions
What AI model is the smart search and chatbot using?
We are currently experimenting with different models including those from Anthropic AI and OpenAI to find the best methodology for this use case. We may publish a white paper in the future with more details.
I hit the usage limit, how do I get an increase?
Send a message to us at support@ankihub.net and we can increase it for you (limits apply)

If you cancel your subscription, you will have access to the premium features until the plan runs out. Once the subscription runs out, you will no longer be able to access the AI features

Troubleshooting
Why is the AnkiHub AI Bot not showing up for me?
If the AI features are still not showing up, ensure the following:
- You have an active AnkiHub premium subscription
- You have the latest version of the AnkiHub add-on
- You are not on a scholarship subscription
- You are on the latest version of Anki
- You are using a deck that has AI enabled (such as the AnKing Step Deck)
- You are on the Qt6 version of Anki, not Qt5
Qt6 vs Qt5 Anki version
Ensure you are on a Qt6 version of Anki, as using the Qt5 version will cause the AI button not to show up. To check what version you are running
-
In the Anki main screen, at the top left, click “Anki”
-
Click “About Anki”
-
Here you can see what version you have (it should be Qt6 to be able to use the AI features)
-
To get the Qt6 version of Anki, you can download it from here → https://apps.ankiweb.net/
Still can’t see the AI features?
- If you still cannot see the AI features, you might need to change new card destination, to do this:
-
In your main Anki screen, go to the top left and click the AnkiHub add-on
-
Click Deck Management
-
Select the deck that has AI enabled (for example, the AnKing Step Deck)
-
Click “Change Destination for New Cards”
-
Select the AnKing Step Deck (if it already selected, try selecting it again and click “Confirm Destination for New Cards”
