Poixe AI applies rate limits to API calls to keep the platform stable and ensure fair use. Rate limits are a global, per-user quota: all model requests under your account share the same rate allowance, which the system schedules centrally.

What determines your rate limit

Rate limits are mainly tied to your user level (Level). New users start at Level 0, and as your cumulative top-ups raise your level, you generally get higher request rates and more capacity. You can view your level and the corresponding rate limits on the benefits page: https://poixe.com/tiers/user

Key concepts

  • RPM (Requests Per Minute): the maximum number of requests allowed per minute
  • Global quota: requests across all models and all endpoints are counted together (there is no separate quota per model)
  • Takes effect immediately: rate limits update automatically when your level increases, with no action required

What happens when you hit a limit

If you send too many requests in a short period, the system may return rate-limit errors. We recommend that you:
  • Add client-side retries (with exponential backoff)
  • Queue or throttle concurrent requests
  • For high-concurrency workloads, consider raising your level or contacting the team to evaluate your quota

Check current status
