## Limits & Quotas

* Rate limits depend on your Crunchbase plan tier (Basic, Pro, Enterprise).
* Enterprise plans typically allow higher request volumes; check your account dashboard for current limits.
* Error model: non-2xx responses and timeouts are caught and returned as `success=False` + `error` rather than raising.
