Contextual Ai Rate Limits

The Contextual AI platform enforces per-workspace rate limits and request constraints across its APIs. Documented hard input constraints include a 32,000-token total limit on Generate requests, a 7,000-token total limit on LMUnit requests, and Parse file limits of 300 MB and 2,000 pages per file. Per-endpoint request-per-minute and token-per-minute throttles vary by tier and are not publicly reconciled in this artifact; enterprise agreements raise limits. Throttled requests return HTTP 429.

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

It captures 6 rate-limit definitions, measuring tokens, bytes, pages, and requests.

The profile also includes 3 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include AI, RAG, LLM, Grounded Language Model, and Enterprise.

Policies

Job Result Retention
Parse job status and results are retained for 30 days; older requests return 404.
Tiered Limits
Limits raise with paid usage and via Enterprise agreements.
Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor Retry-After on 429.
