Thanks for providing this brilliant service.

I was wondering how you count requests, with a 40 requests / minute limit, one might even hit the request limit by just browsing tiles or using geocoding autocomplete. On your website you refer to "To learn more about the specific restrictions of openrouteservice endpoints, please check our rate limits.", but the rate limits page returns a 404.

So I was wondering if you have different limits for these services or if one tile request is "one map load" or something like this.

Thanks in advance,
Robin

Hi Robin,

sorry the link is now updated. Each request to the API is counted as one, that is correct.

Cheers, Tim
