Podcastle Rate Limits

The Async Voice API behind Podcastle enforces per-account rate limits and returns HTTP 429 with a RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED error code when limits are exceeded. The published documentation surfaces the throttling response and error model but does not list specific per-account RPM, concurrency, or per-hour caps. Consumer platform usage is governed instead by monthly AI credits and transcription-hour allowances per subscription tier. Specific numeric limits are not reconciled in this artifact.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests, credits, and hours.

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

Tagged areas include AI, Audio, Text to Speech, Voice Cloning, and Podcasting.

Policies

Tiered Limits
Allowances and limits increase across Free, Essentials, Pro, Teams, and Business tiers, and across the Voice API pay-as-you-go and enterprise plans.
Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and retry after receiving HTTP 429 RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED responses.
