ConvertAPI enforces rate limits based on subscription tier and server resource availability. Business and Enterprise customers have no hard concurrent request limits. All other tiers are subject to throttling during periods of high server utilization, returning HTTP 503. The recommended retry strategy uses progressive back-off with three attempts at 5, 10, and 15 second intervals. Conversion quota exhaustion returns HTTP 403.
