Rate Limits
VoxParse applies per-user rate limits to ensure fair usage and platform stability.
Endpoint Limits
| Endpoint | Limit | Window |
|---|---|---|
POST /v1/transcribe | 10 requests | Per minute |
GET /v1/balance | 60 requests | Per minute |
GET /v1/jobs | 60 requests | Per minute |
Rate Limit Response
When rate limited, you receive a 429 response with a retry_after field:
429 Response
{"error":{"message":"Rate limit exceeded. Max 10 transcriptions per minute.","code":429},"retry_after":12}Best Practices
- Implement exponential backoff with jitter on 429 responses
- Queue transcription jobs and process them at a steady rate
- Cache balance checks instead of polling on every request
- Contact support if you need higher limits for production workloads
