Alloy Rate Limits

Machine-readable rate limit definitions for the Alloy API. Alloy does not publish a single fixed per-customer rate limit; production limits are agreed per institution as part of the commercial contract and scaled to expected onboarding, ongoing monitoring, and event volumes. The values below capture the operational shape of the platform - signaling headers, retry behavior, and tiering - rather than fixed published numbers.

Alloy Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Alloy on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, across the sandbox and production tiers, measuring requests_per_minute, requests_per_second, and events_per_second.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include Identity Decisioning, KYC, AML, Fraud, and Rate Limiting.

Production Default workflow-token
requests_per_second · second
Production throughput is sized per institution and per workflow; contact Alloy to raise documented limits.
Events Ingest account
events_per_second · second
Ongoing monitoring events are sized to the institution's expected transaction and login volume; bursts above sized capacity may be throttled and surfaced via 429.
