# Rate Limits

Plannr's API includes rate limiting to prevent bad actors from overloading the infrastructure and causing a loss of quality for our customers. We offer a generous API rate limit of 500 requests per minute per user. If you get errors with the status code of 429 "Too Many Requests" please make sure you implement a back-off strategy until the rate limit has been lifted.&#x20;

There is a useful `X-Ratelimit-Remaining` header provided in every response from the API which you can programmatically hook up to prevent being rate-limited.
