Limits

An AI-assistant connection has its own, lower limits than a Freight Right API token — they are counted separately, so an assistant can never spend your integration's capacity. freightright_get_account shows yours and what is used.

	Typical assistant limit
Instant price checks	10 a minute, 1 at a time, 200 a month
Quote requests	5 an hour, 10 a day, 30 a month
Reads (shipments, quotes, account)	60 a minute

A booked instant offer counts as one quote request. Monthly counters reset at the start of the month (UTC), and the assistant is told exactly when if it runs out.

When a limit is reached, the answer says so with the wait — it is never an error you should retry blindly. When Freight Right is busy, the answer says how many seconds to wait.

One price check at a time

An assistant can have one price check running for your account at a time. If it starts another, it is told to wait or to collect the one already running — which is also why hanging up on a price check does not waste it: it finishes, and the result is there to collect.

Known limitation

If the connector's own server is replaced at the exact moment between a price check reaching Freight Right and its result being stored, the retry is a second call against your allowance. It cannot happen for quote requests or bookings — those carry an idempotency key — and we are changing the pricing API so it cannot happen there either.
