# Rate Limits

> Per-API-key rate limits and monthly quotas: Pilot trial limits, Production tiers, and how enforcement and quota counting work.

Rate limits are applied **per API key** and vary depending on the key tier and subscription plan. The same per-key limit applies to every integration path — direct REST and SDK requests all count against it.

<Info>
  Pilot keys are for a **two-week trial**. At the end of the trial the Pilot key stops working — move to Production with an active subscription. The Pilot key does not auto-upgrade.

## Pilot Tier Limits

For evaluation and integration testing. No charge during the Pilot window.

* **2,000 API calls per month**
* **EVM chains** (Tron and other chains available on paid tiers)
* Hard-capped — calls beyond the included quota are rejected
* Fair-use rate limits apply

Pilot keys are time-bounded: each key is valid for a **two-week trial** from issue. Use this window to run integration work and evaluate the platform. At the end of the trial the Pilot key is revoked; move to Production with an active subscription.

***

## Production Tier

Production API keys are available with an active subscription.

* Rate limits for Production are defined according to the subscribed plan
* Paid tiers meter overage at a per-call rate
* Exact limits and pricing are communicated during onboarding

***

## Rate Limit Enforcement

* Rate limits are enforced automatically
* Requests exceeding the monthly quota return **HTTP 429 Too Many Requests**
* Only successful (2xx) operations count toward your quota — failed requests do not consume it
* Monthly quotas reset automatically at the beginning of each billing cycle
