Rate Limits

Rate limits protect the API and ensure fair usage. Limits are applied per API key based on your plan.

API access requires a paid plan (Creator or higher). Free accounts cannot create API keys.

Limits by plan

Plan	Prompts	Requests / Minute	Requests / Day
Creator	25	60	5,000
Business	100	120	25,000
Agency	Unlimited	300	100,000
Enterprise	500	600	200,000

Prompt limits

The number of prompts you can track via the API is limited by your plan. The API enforces the same limits as the dashboard. Attempting to add a prompt beyond your limit returns an error:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "INTERNAL_ERROR",
    "message": "Prompt limit reached (25/25). Upgrade your plan to add more prompts."
  }
}

Rate limit headers

Every API response includes rate limit information:

Header	Description
`X-RateLimit-Limit`	Maximum requests per minute for your plan
`X-RateLimit-Remaining`	Remaining requests in current window
`X-RateLimit-Reset`	Unix timestamp when the window resets

Exceeding limits

When rate limited, the API returns 429 Too Many Requests:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED",
    "message": "Rate limit exceeded. Try again in 23 seconds."
  }
}

The response includes a Retry-After header with seconds to wait.

Best practices

Cache responses when possible — tracking data updates once daily
Use the export endpoint for bulk data instead of many individual requests
Implement exponential backoff on 429 responses
Use tags to filter data server-side instead of fetching everything
