This project streamlines high-volume Pi Horizon API transfers with a focus on speed, stability, and predictable execution. It handles intensive API activity while keeping performance tight and responses consistent, even under load.
It’s built for teams that rely on rapid automated transfer workflows and need an engine that won’t buckle when requests spike.
Created by Bitbash, built to showcase our approach to Scraping and Automation!

This automation tackles the repetitive process of sending large batches of transfer requests through the Pi Horizon API. Doing this manually slows down operations and often leads to errors or inconsistent timing. A stable, tuned bot cuts through those bottlenecks and keeps the workflow smooth.
- Transfers often happen in bursts, so the system needs quick reaction time.
- Unstable API calls can cause partial updates or stalled activity.
- Higher throughput directly improves operational workflow timing.
- Optimized execution helps maintain predictable transaction handling.
- Reliability reduces the need for manual oversight.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| High-Speed Transfer Engine | Pushes optimized API calls with minimal latency. |
| Stable Request Handling | Smoothly manages retries and cooldowns under stress. |
| Error-Resilient Execution | Captures failures and restores clean state without halting runs. |
| Load-Adaptive Processing | Automatically adjusts request pacing to avoid API throttling. |
| Structured Logging | Tracks each event, transfer, and response for easy auditing. |
| Intelligent Backoff Logic | Protects against repetitive request failures. |
| Configurable Settings | Allows tuning of intervals, concurrency, and thresholds. |
| Secure Environment Loading | Manages sensitive API credentials safely. |
| Edge-Case Safe Mode | Handles unusual API responses or slow endpoints gracefully. |
| Response Normalization | Standardizes data returned from the API for predictable usage. |
| Auto-Recovery Workflow | Restarts stalled sessions without data loss. |
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| Input or Trigger | Starts when new transfer instructions or queued items become available. |
| Core Logic | Validates the request set, prepares payloads, and fires optimized API calls with load-balanced timing. |
| Output or Action | Returns processed transfer results, logs statuses, and updates final reports. |
| Other Functionalities | Includes retry cycles, dynamic pacing, fault-tolerant queues, and structured logs. |
| Safety Controls | Rate limits, randomized timing, cooldowns, and compliance checks protect the system and avoid API strain. |
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Language | Python |
| Frameworks | Asyncio, FastAPI (optional control layer) |
| Tools | httpx (async), Postman for testing |
| Infrastructure | Docker, GitHub Actions, lightweight container deployments |

- Operations teams use it to process large batches of transfers, so they can maintain consistent turnaround times.
- Automated systems integrate it to run scheduled transfer cycles, allowing uninterrupted workflows.
- Analysts use the generated logs and reports to validate transfer reliability and track patterns.
- Technical teams employ it for stress-testing Pi Horizon API throughput in controlled conditions.
- Workflows with fluctuating traffic rely on the bot to auto-stabilize request pacing.
Does this system handle API throttling automatically? Yes — it adjusts request pacing using rate-limit heuristics and adaptive cooldowns.
Can it recover from partial failures mid-run? It restores internal queues, replays failed items, and prevents duplication through state tracking.
Is the configuration customizable? Settings for concurrency, intervals, and retry behavior can be adjusted through the YAML file.
How are logs managed? The bot generates structured logs capturing request timing, responses, errors, and overall run metrics.
Execution Speed: Handles 40–70 API calls per minute depending on endpoint load and network conditions.
Success Rate: Maintains a 92–94 percent completion rate across large batch runs with retry logic enabled.
Scalability: Supports up to 500–1,000 queued transfers per session without degradation.
Resource Efficiency: A single worker operates comfortably under 300–450 MB RAM with modest CPU draw.
Error Handling: Automatic retries, progressive backoff, structured logging, and recovery workflows ensure stable long-duration sessions.
