📣Rate Limits & User Limits

Rate limits ensure fair usage and optimal performance for all users. Limits scale with your subscription tier - from testing to enterprise production deployments.

Subscription Tiers

Free	Pulse	Flow	Stream
100 req/day	50,000 req/month	200,000 req/month	1,000,000 req/month
X	60 req/min (Rate Limit)	200 req/min (Rate Limit)	500 req/min (Rate Limit)

Rate Limit Implementation

Example:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 100           # Maximum requests per window
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 87        # Remaining requests in current window
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1699564800    # Unix timestamp when quota resets

Rate Limit Exceeded Response

Example:

{
  "error": "rate_limit_exceeded",
  "message": "You have exceeded your rate limit",
  "retry_after": 42
}

When rate limited, wait for the indicated period or upgrade your subscription tier for immediate access.

Best Practices

Optimize Your Usage

1. Cache responses - Store frequently accessed data locally

2. Batch requests - Combine multiple data points into single requests where possible

3. Use webhooks - Receive push updates instead of polling (Flow/Stream tiers)

4. Implement exponential backoff - Handle rate limits gracefully with retry logic

5. Monitor usage - Track your request patterns to stay within quota

Upgrading Your Plan
