  Tabs does not publish numeric API rate limits in its public developer
  documentation as of the review date. The Tabs Platform API is a REST API
  authenticated with an API key in the Authorization header; access is scoped to
  your Tabs account. Tabs' SLA documents a 99.9% monthly uptime target
  (excluding scheduled maintenance and force majeure) with tiered support
  response times, but does not state per-minute or per-account request caps or
  throttling behavior.
notes: >-
  No documented request-rate limits, quotas, or 429 throttling policy were found
  in the public docs. Clients should still implement exponential backoff with
  jitter and honor any Retry-After header. Verify current limits with Tabs
  support (support@tabsplatform.com) before high-volume integration.
