Limits: uploads, pages, corrections, rates

Size and pages

The same limits as the interface, per plan. These numbers are read from the service when this page is shown, so they are the ones it enforces; they are also at [GET /v1/plans](/docs/api/reference).

The free daily limit on this deployment is 10 corrections. API keys belong to Business accounts, whose corrections are unlimited.

A file over the limit answers 413 file_too_large, and a document with too many pages 422 too_many_pages; both messages name the limit.

Rate limits

Each key may make 120 requests a minute, in bursts of up to 30 at once. Every response to a key carries X-RateLimit-Limit (requests a minute), X-RateLimit-Remaining (requests you can send now) and X-RateLimit-Reset (seconds until the allowance is full again). Past the limit the answer is 429 too_many_requests with a Retry-After in seconds.

A busy engine is different from a rate limit: 503 busy means every engine slot is in use for a moment, not that your key has done too much. It also carries Retry-After, and the request is safe to send again because it did nothing.
