description: >-
  HyperVerge does not publish fixed numeric per-second or per-minute rate limits
  in its public REST-API documentation. Throughput and monthly verification
  volume are governed by the commercial plan (Start / Grow / Enterprise) and the
  appId/appKey credentials issued to the account, rather than by a documented
  public request cap. Invalid or missing credentials return HTTP 401. Contact
  HyperVerge for the concurrency and volume limits provisioned for a given
  account and region host.
notes: >-
  No numeric per-account or per-endpoint request-rate limits were documented at
  review time. Reconcile actual concurrency, burst, and monthly verification
  allowances with HyperVerge during onboarding.
