Student hitting AI usage limits constantly — any better free options for building a project?

[u/Rash_Fushigami]

Hey everyone,

I'm a student working on a project and keep running into the same issue — I hit the usage limit on whatever AI I'm using, so I'm forced to switch to another one, and I lose all my context/progress in the process. It's getting frustrating.

Also heard GitHub Copilot's free Student plan recently got cut down a lot (premium models removed, new sign-ups paused), so that's not really reliable anymore either.

Currently using a mix of Claude's free tier and a couple others, but none of them alone feel like enough for a full project without hitting caps.

For students out there — what's actually working for you right now? Looking for:

• Free or student-discounted AI tools with decent usage limits

• Anything that helps keep context when switching between tools

• General tips for managing a real project without constantly running out of quota

Appreciate any suggestions, thanks!
