description: >-
  Tempus AI does not publish a public, self-serve developer API, and therefore
  no public rate limits, quotas, or throttling policies are documented. Any
  request limits or throughput constraints applicable to enterprise data
  feeds, Lens platform usage, or EHR (HL7 / FHIR) integrations are defined per
  contract within partner agreements and are not publicly available.
notes: >-
  No public 429 / throttling behavior is documented because no public API
  endpoint is exposed. Reconcile only if Tempus publishes a documented public
  API with stated rate limits.
