API Rate Limits

Rate limits are enforced per API key and plan to protect shared infrastructure. Credits are still the main usage meter; rate limits only cap burst behavior.

Per-minute buckets

These limits apply to the normal API. Different plans get different burst capacity, while monthly or annual credits still remain the main usage meter.

Inference

Detection endpoints such as /detect, /detect-url, and /batch-detect, plus OCR endpoints on plans that include them.
