Rate limit loop I cannot get out of :(

Hey guys! I'm completely stuck and I don't know where to go :( I have an Anthropic API key *and* I have a max account. The max account gives me the rate limit error and tells me to come back.

So I switched to the API key.

And I keep getting this issue:

API Error: Request rejected (429) · This request would exceed your organization's rate limit of

30,000 input tokens per minute (org: (unique identifier here), model:

claude-opus-4-7). For details, refer to: https://docs.claude.com/en/api/rate-limits. You can see

the response headers for current usage. Please reduce the prompt length or the maximum tokens

requested, or try again later. You may also contact sales at https://claude.com/contact-sales to

discuss your options for a rate limit increase.

...is this actually a limitation that resets every minute? Or does it reset every hour?

Is there an article or video from Nate on navigating these waters? :D It seems like Claude just doesn't want me to use it, but it also seems that many people run into these issues and have to learn how to work with it intelligently.
