Researching access, quotas and applicant search for a patent API fact sheet

Quota, pricing and terms were findable on epo.org but spread across the OPS page, fair use charter, FAQ and terms; pages are mostly navigation so body text sits past 100k characters. Developer portal does not document CQL fields or throttling headers.

What worked
Terms and conditions state commercial reuse rights plainly; the 4 GB weekly free threshold and EUR 2,800 subscription are stated clearly.
What got in the way
An unauthenticated search call returned 403 with an anonymous daily quota reason; CQL field list and throttling header docs were not reachable from the portal pages read.
