Rate limits

The API limits how many requests you can make in a short window, as a safety rail against runaway clients. This is separate from token costs: rate limits cap how often you call, while token costs measure how much data you use. Even a free (0-token) call counts toward the rate limit.

The limits

Section titled “The limits”

The limit applies per Land Insights account and is shared across all of your keys:

  • Up to 120 requests in a burst.
  • After that, up to 60 requests per minute sustained.

Going over the limit

Section titled “Going over the limit”

If you exceed the limit, the API returns a 429 error with a Retry-After header telling you how many seconds to wait before trying again. The X-RateLimit-* headers on every response let you pace your requests before you hit the limit.
