AudD · Rate Limits

Audd Rate Limits

AudD gates access primarily through request quotas rather than fine-grained per-second rate limits. Without an api_token, usage is capped at 10 requests per method per day. With a token, the 300-request free allotment and any monthly plan limits apply; additional usage is billed per 1,000 requests. The enterprise endpoint counts one request per 12 seconds of audio scanned. Specific per-second throttling values are not documented publicly.

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

It captures 4 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Music, Music Recognition, Audio, Fingerprinting, and Lyrics.
