description: >-
  Hamming AI does not publish explicit REST API rate limits. Practical limits
  are governed by account/plan terms and by voice testing concurrency (Hamming
  advertises load testing up to 50K+ concurrent test calls on appropriate
  plans). Per-endpoint request quotas are not publicly documented and are not
  reconciled in this artifact.
notes: >-
  Confirm any per-key request limits, concurrent call/test-run limits, and
  burst behavior with Hamming during reconciliation; values likely vary by
  plan and are not published.
