# Limits

No sign-up. Short lists and hospital procedure volumes are free; full evidence has a daily allowance. Specialty lists are free too; only opening a doctor's evidence with `get_doctor` counts toward the daily allowance. The doctor allowance resets at 00:00 UTC; the daily request count runs for 24 hours from a connection's first request. The France service counts separately from the United States and New Zealand services.

| | With an account key | Without an account |
|---|---|---|
| Availability | By invitation during testing; there is no sign-up | Available: no sign-up, limited per network address as below. |
| Different doctors' evidence per day | 100 | 5 per network address |
| Requests per minute | 60 | 30 |
| Requests per day | 1,000 | 300 |

- Results per search: up to 10; paging stops at 30.
- Doctors per `get_doctor` call: up to 10.
- Hospitals per `hospital_procedure_volumes` page: up to 20; paging stops at 120.
- Opening the same doctor again the same UTC day does not count again.
- Requests from the Claude and ChatGPT apps are recognised by the network addresses Anthropic and OpenAI publish, and share their own daily allowances.
- Through the address for every country, France evidence is counted per network address; an account key applies to the United States only.
- The service also has daily totals across all connections. When one is reached, the reply says so and when it resets.

When the daily doctor allowance runs out partway through a `get_doctor` call, the doctors that fit are returned, the rest are listed in `left_out`, and `daily_doctor_limit` (right after `before_you_answer`) says when the allowance resets. When a single doctor is asked for and nothing is left, the HTTP API answers `429` and MCP returns a tool error with the same message. Request rate limits also answer `429`, with `Retry-After`. An agent should tell the person, not retry in a loop.

Limits can change during testing. This page and [https://api-fr.findadoctor.si/llms.txt](https://api-fr.findadoctor.si/llms.txt) show the current values.
