If you saw a message like "You're creating reports faster than usual — please wait a moment and try again," SparkToro briefly slowed your account down because the report creation pattern looked automated.
When this happens
The slowdown only triggers when both of these are true on a single submission:
- The interaction looks scripted (no mouse movement, instant form fill, or browser-automation signals on the page)
- The account has created several reports in a short window
If you are using SparkToro normally in a browser, you will not hit this.
What to do
- Wait the few seconds shown in the message, then try again. The limit clears on its own.
- If you keep seeing it, log out and back in to refresh your session.
- If it persists, contact us — happy to take a look.
Building on top of SparkToro?
If you are scripting SparkToro on purpose — pulling reports from a tool, integrating with an AI assistant, or feeding data into another system — programmatic access is faster and won't rate-limit you:
- SparkToro in ChatGPT (live now). Open ChatGPT, go to Apps, search for SparkToro, and connect it — or open it directly at chatgpt.com/apps/sparktoro. See Using SparkToro in ChatGPT for the full walkthrough.
- MCP server for Claude and other clients. In early access. Join the waitlist and we will reach out as soon as a spot opens.
- REST API. In early access. Join the waitlist for the same data the app uses, with generous limits for scripted access.
