Your team switches to another engine and keeps working. It only waits when there is nothing left to switch to.
Why there is more than one engine
A weekly limit is a fact about one AI provider's capacity — not about your work. So Tycoon keeps more than one engine available, on deliberately different providers, and your team moves to the next one when the first is unavailable. One vendor's ceiling cannot stop your company.
You do not have to choose or configure this. The strongest engine is tried first; the next one picks the work up where it stopped.
What you see
The task carries on, and its history notes where the handover happened. There is nothing for you to do and nothing to re-explain — the task keeps its brief, its history, and its owner.
When it does wait
If every engine is unavailable at once, the task pauses and says when capacity returns. It resumes on its own at that point, and reports the result in the same place. It will not sit silently: the wait, and what it is waiting for, are on the task.
If you would rather it never waits
Connect your own AI subscription under Integrations. Your team then runs on your allowance instead of sharing Tycoon's capacity — see whose AI subscription your work runs on.
