- API response time: Under 2 seconds for image search and browse endpoints.
- Image delivery: Served via Pexels CDN with global edge caching for fast delivery worldwide.
5. Third-Party Dependencies
Slate relies on the Pexels API for image content. Disruptions to Pexels' service may impact image availability on Slate. Such third-party outages are excluded from our uptime commitment.
6. Support
