Newscatcher Rate Limits

Newscatcher enforces rate limits across three dimensions for the News API: concurrent calls, total monthly plan calls, and historical data depth in days. The Web Search (CatchAll) API uses a credit-based model where each retrieval mode has a defined credit cost per operation. Exceeding concurrent call limits returns HTTP 429. Monthly quotas reset at the start of each billing cycle with no rollover for call counts (Web Search credits do roll over). Current quota consumption can be queried via the /subscription endpoint.

It captures 11 rate-limit definitions.
