# Rate limits

> How Klint rate limits requests: 429 responses with Retry-After and a machine-readable problem body.

When a request exceeds your rate limit, Klint returns `429` with a `Retry-After` header and a [problem object](/docs/api-reference/errors):

```json theme={null}
{
  "type": "https://api.tryklint.ai/problems/rate-limit-exceeded",
  "status": 429,
  "request_id": "req_example_53",
  "detail": "Too many requests. Retry after the delay in Retry-After."
}
```

Respect `Retry-After`. It is authoritative. The [errors page](/docs/api-reference/errors) has copy-paste backoff snippets.

<Note>
  We have not designed quotas and tiers yet. What's settled: `429` with an authoritative `Retry-After` header.
