Limits & Quotas

To protect your connected accounts and stay compliant with each social network, the API enforces platform hard caps using a rolling 24-hour window. When a cap is reached for a specific account on a given network, further posts to that account/network are rejected until the window rolls over.

Social Hard Caps Per Network

Note: We currently support TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Other platforms listed below are planned for future updates.

How Limits Work

• What counts: Only successful publishes recorded for that account/network in the last 24 hours.
• Scope: Per connected social account. These limits are NOT global to your API user.
  • Example: If you manage 5 Profiles, and each Profile has its own TikTok account connected, you get the full limit for each TikTok account (e.g., 5 TikTok accounts × 15 posts = 75 posts per day total).
• Scheduled posts: Caps are re-checked at execution time; if the cap is already reached, the publish will be rejected then.

Error Response (Cap Reached)

When a limit is reached, the API returns a 429 Too Many Requests status.

Additional Verifications

The system performs other checks to ensure account safety:

1. Duplicate Content: Checks for duplicate or very similar content within 48h (per account/network) to reduce spam risk and shadow bans.
2. Mention Limits: Monitors mention usage to avoid spammy behavior (e.g., excessive mentions or repeating the same handle too frequently).
3. Content Safety: Media and content sanity checks evolve over time to align with network guidelines.
