Bright Data Rate Limits

Rate-limit posture for the Bright Data API surface. Bright Data primarily controls usage via per-zone concurrency caps and monthly result/bandwidth quotas tied to the customer's plan. Hard per-second request limits are documented per product; see https://docs.brightdata.com for the authoritative limits.

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

It captures 8 rate-limit definitions, across the payg, growth, business, premium, and web-scraper-scale tiers, measuring concurrent_requests, results, records, gigabytes, and concurrent_sessions.

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

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Quotas, and Bright Data.
