                <h2>Etiquette</h2>
                The tool uses the same workers to handle all requests, so making concurrent API calls is only going to slow you down. Most operations are not rate-limited, but full searches with <span class="code">use_engine=True</span> are globally limited to around a thousand per day. Be respectful!
