What is included in the free plan?

The free plan gives you 100 requests per day, resetting at 00:00 UTC. Search 50K sources with 65+ filters and export results as JSON. Results include article images, tone, names, places, and categories. Articles arrive with a 12-hour delay. Each request returns up to 10 results, and you can access the first 5 pages. The limit is 10 requests per minute. Instead of the full article text, you get a 200-character preview. Use this plan for testing, prototypes, and small projects. See the full free plan limits

How does Pay-as-You-Go pricing work?

Add money to your Pay-as-You-Go balance and pay $0.01 per API request. You do not need a monthly subscription, and your balance does not expire. The minimum top-up is $1 (100 credits). This works for occasional requests or usage that varies from month to month. How Pay-as-You-Go works in detail

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan anytime?

Yes. Change your plan anytime in the dashboard. Upgrades start immediately, and the charge is adjusted for the time left in your billing period. Downgrades start in the next billing period. When you upgrade, unused credits from your old plan are added to your new allowance.

Do unused credits roll over to the next month?

Yes. On paid plans, unused credits carry over to the next month and stay in your account until you use them. How credits work

What happens if I exceed my monthly credit limit?

When you exhaust your monthly credits, API requests will return an error until your next billing cycle or until you upgrade. We send email alerts at 80% and 100% usage. You can also enable auto-upgrade or switch to Pay-as-You-Go for overflow usage. What to do when you run out of requests

Are there any hidden fees or feature restrictions?

All paid plans include article tone, names and places mentioned, all 65+ filters, and the full news archive. You can export as JSON, JSONL, NDJSON, XML, CSV, TSV, RSS, XLSX, or Parquet. Paid plans also include MCP Server and webhooks. There are no hidden fees. Plans differ in credit allowance, request limits, source access, and support. Enterprise plans add dedicated support, phone access, and custom service-level agreements (SLAs). The comparison table above lists the free plan limits.

Cancel anytime from your account settings — no phone calls or emails required. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period. Any remaining credits stay in your account and can be used with Pay-as-You-Go or if you resubscribe later.
