# Usage Limits

Superjoin API implements rate limiting to ensure fair usage and maintain system stability. Each user is allowed a specific number of API requests within a defined time window.

## Rate Limit Rules

To prevent excessive usage and maintain system performance, the following rate limits apply:

* **5 requests per minute**: You can make up to 5 requests within any 60-second window.
* **50 requests per day**: A maximum of 50 requests are allowed in a 24-hour period.

### Exceeding Rate Limits

If you exceed the rate limits, the API will respond with a `429 Too Many Requests` error. You will need to wait until the rate limit window resets before making additional requests.

**Response Example:**

```json theme={null}
{
  "message": "Too many requests: You have exceeded the API rate limits."
}
```

## Monitoring Your Usage

It's important to monitor your API usage to avoid hitting the rate limits. Ensure your integration handles the `429` error gracefully and retries after the appropriate waiting period.

## Need Higher Limits?

If your use case requires higher rate limits, you can request an increase by contacting us at [support@superjoin.ai](mailto:support@superjoin.ai). Be sure to include the reasons for needing the higher limit and details about your usage.
