notes: >
  D-ID does not publish explicit per-second or per-minute rate limit thresholds in
  their public documentation. The platform supports parallel processing of tens of
  thousands of simultaneous video generation requests. Rate limiting behavior is
  governed by plan tier and monthly minute quota. Exceeding monthly quota results
  in a 402 Insufficient Credits response. The 402 and 429 HTTP status codes are
  documented in the API reference.
