# Rate Limits for Peec API

The **Peec AI Customer API** enforces rate limits to ensure reliable and fair usage. Rate limits are applied **per project**.

## Current Limits

* **200 requests per minute** per project.

<Warning>
  These limits may be adjusted. Please adhere to the response headers.
</Warning>

If your application exceeds the limit, requests will return a `429 Too Many Requests` response until the window resets.

## Response Headers

Every response includes standard rate limit headers so you can monitor usage:

* `X-RateLimit-Limit` – the maximum number of requests allowed in the current window.
* `X-RateLimit-Remaining` – the number of requests remaining in the current window.
* `X-RateLimit-Reset` – the time (in seconds) until the rate limit resets.

Example response headers:

```
X-RateLimit-Limit: 100
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 42
X-RateLimit-Reset: 23
```

## Best Practices

* Monitor the rate limit headers in your integration.
* Implement **exponential backoff** or **retry logic** when receiving `429` responses.
* If you need higher limits, [contact support](mailto:support@peec.ai).
