Sensible Rate Limits

Sensible's primary throttle is the per-plan monthly document allotment; documents above the bundle are billed at $0.50 per document overage on Growth/Scale tiers (Enterprise has tiered overage). API request-level numeric per-second limits are not publicly published.

Sensible Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Sensible on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and documents/month.

An exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

This profile was written by API Evangelist and has not been verified against a page the provider published; treat every limit as unconfirmed until a dated transcription replaces it.

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

Tagged areas include AI, Document AI, IDP, Extraction, and Rate Limiting.
