# ElevenLabs Rate Limits

## Overview

Handle ElevenLabs rate limits with plan-aware concurrency queuing, exponential backoff, and quota monitoring. ElevenLabs uses two rate limit mechanisms: concurrent request limits (per plan) and system-level throttling. The key insight is that a 429 means two different things depending on its `detail.status` — and each demands the opposite response.

## Prerequisites

- ElevenLabs SDK installed (`@elevenlabs/elevenlabs-js`)
- Understanding of your subscription plan's limits
- `p-queue` package (recommended): `npm install p-queue`
