A search's result URLs are kept in SurrealDB (results table) for 1 hour, fetched in the same transaction as the rate limit. Other ?i= of the query then skip the Brave/Bing search and don't count toward the daily limit. The record also tracks which results worked (pos) and how far it got (next), so an already-known ?i= downloads only its own image and a new one carries on from where the last left off. free.* searches Openverse and Wikimedia together so its whole list can be cached. Empty results aren't cached, since they can mean Brave and Bing failed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

<h2>Free Images</h2>

Cached images don't count toward it and keep loading after you hit it. Neither do other <code>?i=</code> values of a query searched in the last hour. The burst limit applies to all image requests and is enforced approximately. The daily limit resets at 00:00 UTC.</p>

<h3>Caching</h3>
|
||
<p>Images are cached for 90 days. Subsequent requests for the same query are served instantly. A search's results are kept for an hour, so trying other <code>?i=</code> values right after is free and fast. Searches that find nothing serve an AI image instead, cached the same way.</p>
