Rate limits

Limits are per account, in requests per minute:

Plan	Limit
Free trial	20 rpm
Monthly ($5)	200 rpm
Annual ($54)	300 rpm
Enterprise	up to 1,500 rpm

Every response reports where you stand:

RateLimit-Limit: 200
RateLimit-Remaining: 187
RateLimit-Reset: 42

When you hit the limit

You get 429 rate_limited with a Retry-After header (seconds). Back off and retry:

async function withBackoff(fn) {
  for (let attempt = 0; attempt < 5; attempt++) {
    const resp = await fn();
    if (resp.status !== 429) return resp;
    const wait = Number(resp.headers.get("Retry-After") ?? 2 ** attempt);
    await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, wait * 1000));
  }
  throw new Error("rate limit retries exhausted");
}

Tips

• Rate limits count requests, not credits — one list call returning 50 comments is one request.
• Large pulls belong in async jobs, which run server-side and don’t fight your rpm budget.
• Need more than 300 rpm? Contact us about volume plans.
