Background & analysis
On November 11, 2026, OpenRouter published an official guide on how to resolve 429 rate limit errors when calling the OpenAI and Claude APIs. The guide explains what triggers a 429 Too Many Requests error: a caller sends more requests or tokens than its limit allows within the current time window. According to the guide, OpenAI, Anthropic and OpenRouter all return this error, and it typically appears the first time an application runs under real load or when a batch job fans out across multiple workers. The guide is aimed at high-load and batch task distribution scenarios, and walks through how to diagnose and fix problems caused by exceeding request or token limits. As of publication, the guidance is complete, and no further developments were reported.
