Try again, it seems to work now. There are too many people using the extension with the default speech recognition service, I'll add a couple more API keys in the next release and rotate them.

You can also use your own API key from https://wit.ai, it is a free service.

I'm having the exact same problem here.

Visit the extension's options if the error comes back, and switch to the Wit Speech API service, then add this API key for English: EQAXGAJVZIMI3YMILN2XQZY7IWGUPKGL

[hanacchi]

Thanks for the quick reply! That seems to have fixed it for now. If the issue comes up again I'll get my own API key.

Could you detail how to get my own API key? When I go to wit.ai all I see is a very minimalistic page with three lines of text describing what the company does and no way to sign up.

Nevermind, it's my Firefox settings not loading their JS... Anyway, glad to see your extension is getting popular, thanks for your hard work!

[Cyberavater]

I'll add a couple more API keys in the next release and rotate them.

Can you add some more? Cuz, I'm having this issue more often recently.

[coaxial]

@Cyberavater you can get your own key and add it yourself then you most likely won't run into that issue ever again.

You can also use your own API key from https://wit.ai, it is a free service.

4 keys should be plenty for the current user base. It's also possible that someone is taking the keys to abuse the service, so the quota is sometimes depleted.

"API quota exceeded: Try again later" error. Is this the end of the story? The error is permanent.
