# Rate limiting

Rate limits protect the API from excessive usage and ensure fair resource distribution.

## Rate Limits by Plan

| Plan       | Per Minute | Per Day |
| :--------- | ---------: | ------: |
| SBP        |          5 |     100 |
| Expert     |        100 |  10,000 |
| Enterprise |        200 |  20,000 |

Limits are applied **per account**, not per API key. If you need higher limits, contact support (additional cost may apply).

## Response Headers

Monitor your usage with these headers:

| Header                         | Description                     |
| :----------------------------- | :------------------------------ |
| `x-ratelimit-minute-limit`     | Max requests per minute         |
| `x-ratelimit-minute-remaining` | Requests left in current minute |
| `x-ratelimit-minute-reset`     | Reset time (UTC epoch seconds)  |
| `x-ratelimit-day-limit`        | Max requests per day            |
| `x-ratelimit-day-remaining`    | Requests left today             |
| `x-ratelimit-day-reset`        | Reset time (UTC epoch seconds)  |

## Handling 429 Errors

When you exceed the limit, you'll receive `HTTP 429 Too Many Requests`.

> 🚧 Important
>
> Implement retry logic with exponential backoff. Monitor rate limit headers to adjust your request rate dynamically.

## Best Practices

* **Cache responses** to reduce repeated requests
* **Distribute requests evenly** to avoid spikes
* **Monitor headers** to stay within limits
