# Rate Limits

Rate limit applies per API key.

The limit varies by endpoint and plan.

### Read response header

* `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Max request count in the window
* `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Remaining request count
* `X-RateLimit-Reset`: UTC epoch when the window resets

### Handle 429

Stop and wait until the reset time.

Retry with backoff and jitter.

Avoid parallel burst traffic.
