Worth flagging for anyone relying on the AI Studio free tier in a scheduled pipeline (not interactive chat): the "generous free tier, subject to rate limits" part has a sharp edge that's easy to miss until it bites you. We run a classification step on Gemini's free tier as part of a scheduled content pipeline, and increasing the run frequency from 4x/day to hourly didn't gradually raise costs — it silently exhausted the daily request quota within the first hour of the new schedule. At 4 runs/day the quota lasted for weeks; at 24 runs/day it was gone almost immediately. The nastier part: the orchestrator kept reporting "success" on every run because the failure was caught and handled per-item (by design, so one bad item doesn't halt the batch) rather than surfacing as a pipeline-level alert — so the whole collection step was effectively dead for hours with a green status. If you're building anything recurring on the free tier, it's worth explicitly alerting on quota exhaustion rather than trusting an overall "success" status, since per-item error handling can mask a systemic quota problem completely.
