DreamFlow tracks your usage against plan limits in real time. Here is exactly what happens as you approach and hit your limits.
Threshold Alerts
| Threshold | What Happens |
|---|---|
| 75% | Yellow warning in the Usage Dashboard. In-app notification to the workspace Owner and Admins. |
| 90% | Orange alert banner at the top of the dashboard. Email notification to the Owner. |
| 100% | Usage is paused for that resource. Red banner with upgrade/credit-pack CTA. |
What "Paused" Means
When you hit 100% on a resource, that specific resource is paused — not your entire account:
- Emails paused: Campaigns and automated emails queue but do not send. Manual one-off emails still work (limited to 10/day).
- SMS paused: Automated and bulk SMS stops. You can still receive inbound SMS.
- Calling paused: Outbound calls are blocked. Inbound calls still ring.
- AI credits paused: AI features (Sally AI, email writer, etc.) show an "out of credits" message.
Your CRM, contacts, deals, tasks, and all other features continue working normally.
How to Resolve
- Buy a credit pack — Instant top-up. Credits are available immediately. See Buy Credit Packs.
- Upgrade your plan — Higher plans have larger allocations. See Choose and Change Your Plan.
- Wait for renewal — Usage resets at the start of each billing period.
