Protect your most expensive endpoints.

AI generation costs $0.50 per request. User profile lookup costs $0.001. Rate limit them differently.

Trusted by modern API-first companies

Projected to be used over 500+ APIs protected by Rately, handling 1B+ requests daily.

Smart resource protection.

Not all API calls are created equal. Protect expensive operations without limiting basic functionality.

Endpoint-Specific Limits

Different limits for different operations

Match API endpoints with precise URL patterns and apply appropriate limits:

1

AI & LLM Endpoints

Expensive AI operations get strict limits: 5 req/min for generation, 50 req/min for embeddings

2

CRUD Operations

Basic read operations get generous limits, writes get moderate limits

3

Wildcard Patterns

Use wildcards to match multiple endpoints with similar resource requirements

Monitor usage patterns by endpoint, identify expensive operations, and optimize limits for maximum cost savings.
