# Rate Limits

> API rate limits and how to handle them

The AudioShake API allows **60 requests per second**.

Requests that exceed the limit receive a `429 Too Many Requests` response.

## Handling rate limits

* Add exponential backoff to your retry logic
* Batch multiple model targets into a single [Create Task](/api-reference/tasks/create) request instead of making separate calls
* Use [webhooks](/api-reference/tasks/webhooks) instead of polling to reduce unnecessary requests
