What a credit buys
Credits are shared by every endpoint and the MCP server. Connecting your MCP client and listing its tools is free.
| Call | Endpoint or MCP tool | Credits |
|---|---|---|
| Web search | /api/v1/search, web_search | 1 |
| News search, topic news, country news | /api/v1/news/..., news_search, news, country_news | 1 |
| Research papers, AI tools, software, games, images | /api/v1/research and the other directories | 1 |
| Read a full page | /api/v1/extract, read_page | 2 |
| News with full article text | full_text=true on the MCP news tools | 1 + 2 per article |
Every answer returns a quota object with the credits used and your limit, so your code always knows where it stands.

Questions
Do I need a card for the Free plan?
No. Sign up, get a key and use 1,000 credits every month for as long as you like.
What happens when I reach my limit?
Calls return a clear "quota exceeded" message with a link to upgrade. You are never charged extra. Your credits come back at the start of your next month.
How does yearly billing work?
You pay for 10 months and get 12. Your credits still arrive every month, on the same day you subscribed.
Can I change plans?
Yes, any time from this page. Moving up gives you the bigger limit at once and Stripe charges only the difference for the rest of the period.
Do unused credits roll over?
No. Each month starts with your plan's full allowance.
How do I cancel?
From your dashboard, in two clicks. Your key keeps working until the end of the period you paid for.
I had an older plan. What happens to it?
Nothing. It keeps working with the limits you bought. You can move to one of these plans whenever you like.
I need more, or an invoice for my company.
