Handling rate-limits

[fabiopires]

Hey there,

I'm having some issues with rate-limit with Anthropic, and while I know I can potentially reach out to them and negotiate a custom deal, I was wondering if it could be a way to handle these differently (without raising an exception).

I'm thinking in either adding a delay when these are triggered, or even allowing a state of the analysis to be saved and reused a few days later?

Thank you in advance.
