PhpStorm AI Assistant Quota Exceeded / Not Working
Quick answer
PhpStorm AI features are metered by a JetBrains AI plan, so quota runs out or the assistant stays unavailable if the licence or sign-in is wrong. Check quota in the AI widget and your account.
Most likely fix: Check quota and plan
How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Check quota and plan
- Open the AI Assistant widget or tool window and view the quota status
- Sign in at account.jetbrains.com to see your AI plan
- Upgrade, wait for the quota to renew, or use a local model if you have one configured
