+description: Rate limits for Gooey.AI API
+---
+
+# Rate Limits
+
+Rate limits are restrictions that our API imposes on the number of times a user or client can access our services within a specified period of time.
+
+### Why do we have rate limits? <a href="#kchtzx3a4k15" id="kchtzx3a4k15"></a>
+
+Rate limits are a common practice for APIs, and they're put in place for a few different reasons:
+
+* **They help protect against abuse or misuse of the API.**
+* **Rate limits help ensure that everyone has fair access to the API.**
+* **Rate limits can help Gooey.AI manage the aggregate load on its infrastructure.**
+
+| **Tier**     | **Rate Limits**                    |
+| ------------ | ---------------------------------- |
+| **Free**     | 2 concurrent runs, 6 requests/min  |
+| **Creator**  | 4 concurrent runs, 10 requests/min |
+| **Business** | 4 concurrent runs, 10 requests/min |
+
+### If you require a higher number of concurrent requests, please reach out to our Sales team via (sales \[at] gooey \[dot] ai).How do these rate limits work? <a href="#jtp4v5fk0x48" id="jtp4v5fk0x48"></a>
+
+At Gooey.AI, we measure rate limits in two ways:
+
+* Number of runs that can run simultaneously
+* RPM (requests per minute).
+
+However, as we host several models from across the GenAI ecosystem, there might rate limits on Tokens Per Day, Images Per Day, etc. Please refer to the[ OpenAI guide for Token Limits](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/rate-limits/usage-tiers) and the[ Eleven Labs guide for the TTS rate limits](https://help.elevenlabs.io/hc/en-us/articles/14312733311761-How-many-requests-can-I-make-and-can-I-increase-it).
+
+Note:
+
+* Rate limits are defined at the user and org level
+* Rate limits may vary by the model being used at the model provider level.
+
+If you require a higher number of concurrent requests, please reach out to our Sales team via (sales \[at] gooey \[dot] ai).
