Remove API rate limit

Hi

I was wondering if someone could please contact me about how I might remove the limit on API requests?

Kind regards,

Tristan

Hi Tristan,

This limit cannot be removed. The Companies House searchable databases are designed to meet the needs of a wide range of users wishing to interrogate our information on-line.
Due to limitations of equipment and bandwidth, they are not intended to be a source for bulk downloads.

Hi Steve,

Thank you very much for getting back to me on this.

On your site you mention “Increasing your rate limit
If you have an application that requires a higher rate limit than the default applied, then please contact us, we will be happy to help.” I do have such an application! Is there any way I could get the rate increased - perhaps if I were to pay some kind of subscription fee?

The other question I had was whether it was possible to get access to data more frequently than monthly? If I want to get recently registered companies I need to download the most recent monthly file from your site and then parse it for info. Is there any way of getting access to information on a daily basis? Again, perhaps by paying?

Kind regards,

Tristan
