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."
}
}
| 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."
}
}
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
