Frequently asked

How does the free tier work?

The Free tier gives you 1,250 credits per month with a 30 req/min rate limit. No credit card required. Upgrade anytime to unlock higher limits and advanced features.

Can I change plans later?

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect immediately, and we prorate billing for the remainder of your billing cycle.

Is there a free trial for Pro?

Yes. Pro includes a 7-day free trial with full access to all features: 37,500 credits, 300 req/min, priority queue, and 30-day log retention. No credit card required during the trial.

What counts as a search?

Each API request to any of our search or content endpoints counts as one search. Pagination, streaming, and retries within a single request do not count as additional searches.

Do you offer discounts for high volume?

Enterprise plans include custom pricing for high-volume workloads. Contact our sales team for a tailored quote based on your specific needs.
