How do we request a rate increase?

On the official documentation, it states that I should contact Companies House through e-mail if I need to increase our request rate limits.

I’ve done so and was pointed to post on this forum.

We’ve a service listening to the real-time stream of company filings, if the filing matches a particular type, we have to request the document metadata from the REST API, which we then also filter even further and if that matches the criteria, we then need to download the PDF contents of the document.

This is a pseudo-realtime system and needs to remain like that, do you have any suggestions or any document streaming APIs that I’ve missed? Or should I just request a rate limit increase (and how?)

Could anyone please assist with this request? I’m unable to get a response from the Companies House enquiries e-mail
