Rate limits
Plans are billed annually, so quotas are annual too. Enforcement uses a per-second token bucket sized to the daily average. Burst headroom is roughly 10% of the daily cap. On rate limit: HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header.
| Plan | Annual quota | Data access |
|---|---|---|
| Free | — | No API key (use MCP for free access) |
| Verified | 30,000 / yr (~82/day avg) | Headline specs |
| Pro | 1,000,000 / yr (~2,740/day avg) | Headline specs + historical data |
| Enterprise | Custom | Headline + category-specific deep specs |
