Pricing

One credit is one call. Every plan has every endpoint; plans differ only in credits and rate. Credits reset monthly and never roll over. When you run out, calls are rejected, never billed extra.

Questions before you buy

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You get 100 credits on sign-up, enough for 100 calls. Decide after your first calls work.

What happens when I run out?

Calls are rejected with HTTP 402. Nothing is charged and nothing is upgraded automatically. Credits reset each month and don't roll over.

Am I charged for failed calls?

No. Captchas, rate limits and timeouts are our problem and are refunded automatically. A confirmed empty result is charged, because it is an answer, not a failure.

How long does a call take?

Usually a few seconds. If it runs past the sync window you get a request_id to poll.

Can I get a refund?

Plans are monthly and can be cancelled anytime; you keep the current period. Payments and refunds go through Paddle.

Start free, pick a plan later

100 credits is enough to try every endpoint.
